Heading Home

Encompass Rehabilitation Hospital had estimated I may need 20 days of therapy. After a week, they changed the estimate to 11 days. I will be discharged on Saturday and heading home. The three hours of OT and PT in the gym daily has had a positive impact. 

The gym is quite large and is full of brand new modern equipment including a robot for manipulating a patients arm. Three hours a day in the gym is tiring but therapeutic. Full recovery is not the end, but it is the beginning. 

Fortunately, I have a gym at home and, now that I can walk up and down stairs, I plan to workout every day using my stepper for 15 minutes and the same on the treadmill. I will also use light weights and various stretches. 

Now that I am over the hump, I plan to get back to writing about AI and other technologies. I will dust off two new books which have been on the back burner, finish them, and plan to publish. More about this later. 

Note: I use Perplexity, ChatGPT, and Gemini AI chatbots as my research assistants. AI can boost productivity for anyone who creates content. Sometimes I get incorrect data from AI, and when something looks suspicious, I dig deeper. Sometimes the data varies by sources where AI finds it. I take responsibility for my posts and if anyone spots an error, I will appreciate knowing it, and will correct it.

 

Books

I love to read books. All the books I have written and the books I have read are in my GoodReads profile. Feel free to view it here. Strangers on a Train by Patricia Highsmith is an interesting novel by a French lady. It was written in the 1950’s. I found it intriguing. Now I am reading a Michael Connelly book.
