I’ve had a very busy day today. I got up this morning and walked to KFC around the corner to get coffee and the wonderful sesame balls that I love so much. It’s probably a couple of miles — really amazing for me. Then I came back and went to acupuncture & exercise. At exercise my balance was really better and I actually balanced on the wabble board while pitching the medicine ball back and forth. I did both fast and slow. My doctor said I was walking and balancing better. The computer program that I do to train my muscles is very hard. After a few minutes, you get extremely tired and your back hurts where it pulls when you lift your leg. But, I am tryng my hardest, and I do tink it’s getting a little better.
This afternoon Jason and I are going to the Red Hair Salon for a shampoo and massage. They shampoo your hair by putting shampoo in it and massaging for around 30 minutes. Then they rinse the shampoo out and massage your head, neck, arms and back. This is all before they cut or style your hair. It’s amazing. It took Shouhua 2 hours to get a haircut when he did it. It will feel so good to get the neck and back massage — I’m a little tense. My last routine day of acupuncture and exercise for this week is tomorrow (Saturday) and Sunday is a free day. A bunch of us are going to the nice hotel across the street for Cantonese Chinese food. It’s probably closest to the Chinese food we have in the US. Then we’re going to Luo Hu Shopping Center by the train station for shopping. It’s a 3 story shopping center and they have all kinds of knock offs and really neat souveniers. Can’t wait.
I’ll post when I can. I’m planning on taking more pictures of the city too.
Love,
Betty
