I had a pretty good day

First hour was pretty uneventful. I played around on the internet in A.T. lab. Asking queations when I got stuck or had trouble with something. My second and third hour at school today I conquered a fear today and I am so excited. I have never been crazy about escalators. I have always had a fear I would miss the step whether it was going up or down and fall and be horribley hurt. Well today during mobility we did a leason how to safely ride the escalator. I can proudly say I did it. I did not have a huge panic attack or fall. I did however have to remind myself to breathe once I made it onto the moving contraption. I felt so good after completing my lesson today. Fourth hour I had manual skills and I was able to complete the wood burning on the spice rack I am building. On one side it says special and on the other side it says spices. Once I completed the wood burning I was able to stain it. I stained it mahagany (sp?) to match the basket I just finsihed weaving and staining. I had fun. One of the volunteers were there today and he always jokes around with me. Fifth hour I had Independent Personal Management, this is where I clean up the room we eat lunch and have our breaks (we call it the socialization room). This usually takes me maybe 5-10 minutes so for the rest of the hour I tried to sit and concentrate on memorizing braille. Sixth hour I had Braille. I did not read today but brailled sentences instead. I am still not remembering all that I need to but I will. I know I can do this. No one is perfect and I should stop expecting perfection from myself, and just accept that I do the best job that I can. I am determined to make tomorrow just as good as today. I will overcome this dumpiness I have been experiencing and start being my happy self again. I hope you all have a great rest of the day! *D*
