REFLECTIONS

(from web)

I signed up for a new course of physical therapy to begin in a week or so. I quit my present physical therapist because he was discouraging me, telling me I was doing worse.  He even told me to stop exercising and see my doctor.  My doctor said it was fine for me to exercise.  He wrote a prescription for me to give to the new physical therapist. I'm sure I'm getting better and hope the new therapist will help me more than the old one did.  In a year I progressed from a wheel chair to a walker and can climb the stairs with a cane.

Lynette is going for an MRI at 8:30 tomorrow morning.  She's in excr

I came across a web post about spirals that got me thinking about how fascinating they are; in mathematics, science, nature and art. They have something to do with the  Fibonacci   sequence: "Each number in the sequence is the sum of the two numbers that precede it. So, the sequence goes: 0, 1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, 21, 34, and so on. The mathematical equation describing it is  X n+2 = X n+1  + X n" It's a little bit too technical for me. I'll have to learn more about that but for now I'll just show the video about spirals. Sorry about the spiral above. It makes it difficult to type or read. Here's the video:

I never thought about why there are two sets of letters.  Mostly I know how they are used but not why there are two sets. Enjoy the video.
