Got to bed late last night. Was watching a DVD, The Big Kahuna. It was in the comedy section, but perhaps should have been in the "thoughtful" section. Kevin Spacy, Danny DeVito, and a young man/kid who provided the break in the "business as usual" scenario. Anyway, it wasn't all that funny, but it hit smack on with a lot of the issues I'm encountering.

Without going into movie review mode, I'll just say that although not a great movie it was appropriate for me. At the end, there's a voiceover reading a litany of things to do in life that are life-positive. Hmmm! Comedy section!

Did Qigong this morning, a round on the cardio-machine (up to 65 reps now), some yoga, talked to my body, went for a walk in the sunny morning (1.5 miles--legs felt good), came back and rested, then drove over the hill to Campbell to go to a movie--Good Night, Good Luck--with L. Movie was good and I'll not go into review mode on it either. Felt "heavy" once I got there; legs felt weighted and heavy. Had a delicious salmon scramble at Hobee's and drove back to M&E's. Felt good getting back "home."

Have spoken with M&E about my relocation plannings. They graciously offer me a place as long as I need one, and understand that I'll eventually need to be on my own.

I get a little shaky when I think about finding a new place and moving again--but I've got to do something--I can't hang out here with M&E forever--even though my being wouldn't complain too much or so it seems.

Looking forward to beginning week #4 treatments starting tomorrow with Chris. His session is set late in the day--4:15PM to 6:15PM. Wednesday session with Janice is early in the morning---9AM to 11AM. Everyday, in every way, something new, with which to play!

Noticed in movie today that tremor subsided some, especially when I was hooked into the movie, engaged in the action. It also returned at times, but overall was bearable most of the time. Couldn't help but think of how being engaged in the movie was a dopamine-producing activity. Hmmm! I could just watch movies for the rest of my life--probably not.

Also noticed the people who came to the movie using walkers and such. Quite a few! Reminded me of the poster person scenarios. Don't want to go there!

I believe that I want to put my arms, especially my right arm and shoulder, into new positions when I'm reclining or sitting. It's just a sensation of feeling like my arm/shoulder would be more comfortable if I were to put them in those locations. I do so and it does feel good. This started happening last night as I watched the Kahuna movie.

Feeling lots of new sensations all over my body. Also feeling a cramp in my upper back so it's time to save this posting and get horizontal. Good night and good luck!
