Been working with the affirmation's tool a lot today (this week). I've been focusing on the habit of tremoring--the patterns I've created around the tremors and trying to cope with them. Now, I'm simply noticing the tremor and do the affirmation designed to cut it off. In general, it seems to work. Sometimes have to say the affirmation a lot, but it eventually works.

I was resting today and had drifted off into sleep. There was a noise from outside that startled me and kicked the tremor into gear. Despite my grogginess, I started the affirmation and the tremor went quiet.

Have also been affirming that I am recovered--not on my way, but already there. Sets up a different way of looking at the day's events and circumstances. In conjunction with those thoughts, I've been asking myself what do I want to do since I'm recovered. No answers yet, but I'll keep asking the question.

Still investigating adding more exercise into my daily routines. Will be nice when the weather allows me to explore riding a bicycle. One of the "I never give up" sites is hosted by a person with PD who uses a low-slung tricycle. He's the one who's ridden thousands of miles since he was diagnosed. He uses the trike so he doesn't have any issues with balance. I don't seem to have problems with balance, but I am already recovered!

For some reason, I feel logy tonight. Will most likely do an early horizontal and read some. Weather has been a bit milder and I am getting used to the colder spells it seems. Of course! I'm already recovered! What should I expect? Enough of this silliness. Time to rest!
