4486

PD dance class today! We did some coordinated movements set to a phrase. The exercise was striking and very moving. There is something poignant about having everyone mimic what another person is doing--underscoring the movements. Everyone in the class was moved to tears. There was a new person there today. He was in a wheelchair and is very far along with the illness. It was brave of him to be there. His movement range was very limited, but he was still giving it a try.

Movement class tonight was light and bouncy. It is not as moving as the PD dance class, but it still produces moments of stillness and peace. As I noted before, I wonder what it would be like to just be in classes (movement, dance, exercise, yoga, meditation) all the time. My PD symptoms seem to disappear or mitigate when I'm engaged in classes.

Dreamed last night that I was in a store. I had picked up some items and paid for them, but had put something in my bag. I was fearful that I was going to be stopped and questioned. I was with a woman who was also shopping. I told her to hurry up and not to buy too much. We had no car and had to walk back home, which was up the road on a steep hill. There was another part of the dream that echoed a previous dream dealing with lots of unwanted people being in our house. It was like a dream spillover from another night.

PD exercise class tomorrow. Next week many of the classes are not meeting. Have to figure out what I might do to fill the gaps. But, that's next week! Got a note from my daughter that my granddaughter really likes the toy piano. Nice to hear that!
