I felt really good today--and I attribute yesterday's massage with the credit. I awoke really early (4am)--and never got back to sleep. I went to the place that draws blood--and ships the samples off to laboratory. The place is usually a zoo--with a long wait if you just walk in.

I went on line last night instead--and booked an appointment for 9am this morning. I got there at 8:55--and by 9:10 I was out of there. The place was the least crowded that I'd ever seen it--but the technician said they had been swamped earlier. They open at 7am--and the early birds descend on the facility--creating a line of people going out the door.

The phlebotomist had little trouble finding a vein--and made quick work of taking samples. Since I had been fasting--I made a path back to the local SBs and downed a mocha and an almond croissant. I've been doing a daily mocha since I'm getting a bonus of 30 reward stars--plus another 10 for the cost of the drink. I've collected a bunch of reward stars--and I've redeemed a lot of stars for products.

Went to dance class--and wracked up almost 7000 steps on the FitBit. Dancing went well--and I stayed integrated and focused throughout most of it. The instructors were supposed to leave on their month-long trek in the morning--but PG tweaked her hip and they may have to postpone a few days.

Class was small--only about 10 people. I considered going to the Ballroom this evening--but the weather (rainy and cold) and the distance encouraged me to not make the trek. May try on another Friday night--next month.

Watched a weird movie on NF--The Perfect Host. I think its number of review stars may have been overstated--the whole film was somewhat one-dimensional.

Will print off MD's word list tomorrow--and do some movement/exercise to keep my step count up. Need to do bills and such--will handle that over the next few days. Time to get back to Plan B--and figure out what I need to do in order to maintain today's energy level and sense of well being.

Time to expand--and make some connections to others dealing with PD.
