I'm sleepy tonight! Came away from the G&B session feeling somewhat tired. Went through rest of the afternoon doing things (no nap) and am now feeling like I want to crash. Had dinner at the CG (as it goes through its final days) and topped it off with a piece of their carrot cake (which will disappear with the closing of the place. Carrot cake was really good but I'm stuffed to the gills now.

Started to watch a movie--Diving Bell and the Butterfly--which I realized that I had seen before. It's about a journalist who had a stroke that left him locked inside (paralyzed but aware). He could only communicate by blinking his one available eye (1 for yes; 2 for no). He managed to write a memoir using this one eye blinking signal. Transcribers would say the alphabet and he would blink when they came to the letter he wished to record. It took about 2 minutes per transcribed word. I punted on watching the film a second time. I fell more like climbing into bed--which I'm about to do.

Movement class tomorrow. The H's are heading out on a road trip next week so no reading aloud until Memorial Day. Fell into the donut hole on my medications today--my co-pay will be huge each month until end of the year. Thank goodness the gap coverage pays half of amount while I'm in the donut hole. Otherwise, I would really be leaking money! Good time to win the lottery! Good time to get into the senior complex and lower my rent! Good time for a good time!
