HAL – Long Range Planning Committee and BOT Meeting
Thursday – 12/3/15 – physical therapy – shoulder – HAL – UTM
Went for first physical therapy appointment for shoulder at CMH rehab on Fish & Game Rd. A revelation. The physical therapist Anna Marie Zietsman manipulated my shoulder to very positive immediate effect. Leaning, pushing, straps…… Left shoulder is pinched in slightly, probably compensating for the lack of mobility. Will have further sessions. Also showed me how my standing posture could be better.
Lunch at Mexican Radio with HAL Exec. Comm.
UTM meeting with Paul Czajka, District Attorney, and Ed Moore, Hudson Chief of Police. Very good meeting. Moore especially can see uses for the technology. Focused on communications between dispatcher and cars.
Went to Dine Rite Dinner out by CCGC. Just opened. Very good food. $30 for the two of us. Mix of Middle Eastern and Caribbean cuisines. Open for breakfast.

Hurt back coughing after pulling down dust covered boxes in barn. Think it is an aggravation of a small injury on my lower right side from overextending tennis serve.
Karen bought me a brace that helped a lot. Spent time in bed with heating pad. Sneeze attack made things worse. Called in to a HAL Program Committee meeting.
