PD weight training session was difficult to do today. I was not feeling strong. I had slept in late and could have stayed in bed all day. But, I got up and out. I went to the library and picked up some DVDs and books. In the morning, I was feeling boxed in and without options. This evening and tonight I've been feeling like I'm ready to make some changes. I still didn't feel like driving tonight on the freeways, but I realize I need to take control and start doing something more assertive. Living in the box is not fun.

Watched a movie tonight--Make Way for Tomorrow. It's a vintage film that is spoken highly about in the film critic circles. It was a touching movie that dealt with aging family members and their children's openness to providing support and care.

I read some today on the indications and issues with PD and medication such as I take. I've been on increased dosage for over a month. Not sure that it has helped--in fact it may have increased some of the symptoms--especially those that relate to side effects. It's like a complex puzzle that keeps shifting and changing. Life is a puzzle--and I'm not getting closer to any solutions.
