Went to PD exercise class today. At one point in the session, I had the thought "How did I end up here? In this room full of people who are struggling to keep moving? How did I end up here?". There was no answer. Just the realization that I was there. There and aware! I continue to feel that I'm still don't have the severe symptoms that many of the people have--but I also worry (think about, mull) about when it will show up. I also think that it will never happen--that what I'm doing is forestalling progression, slowing down the onslaught. Along with that feeling, I then feel that I need to be doing more (movement, dancing, walking, exercising, stretching, yoga, running, cycling, diet, meditate, and such). About then, I often feel tired and have to go lay down. Meanwhile, the sands keep falling--the hourglass empties. Life continues!

I had a series of dreams last night. One involved a couple of families getting together and going to a movie. There was my family (wife, kids) and another family (husband, wife, kids). We all jumped into a van and went to a movie house that was near our homes. We all rumbled into the place and took up two rows of seats on one side of the middle section. All during the movie, we kept moving around, changing seats, and goofing off. It was a lot of fun and it felt very intimate. There was a lot of physical contact, including some playful petting among the adults when we were next to each other.

A second dream involved being in a carnival setting. There were people milling about, going every which way. There was a wild-looking guy who may have been part of the carnival, and may not have been. He was going around making loud pronouncements. There was something I wanted to ask him, but I could never get close enough to him. He kept moving around the carnival lot along with a rather tall thin man who shadowed his every move.

The third dream disappeared after I awoke. I don't recall what it was about. I may have been still trying to get an answer to some questions, but I'm not certain if that was what I was doing.

PD exercise class didn't seem to bother my rib(s). I'm still a bit sore, but nothing major. Will be going to a movement class tomorrow and a PD dance class. It's been a few weeks of no PD dance so it will be great to get back to having a session. I'm a little tired tonight (I didn't get a long afternoon sleep), but am feeling good.

Got a set of photographs of Jude from my daughter. She's looking great! Looking forward to seeing them this weekend.
