The first of July is finally here--it seemed that it was never going to happen. June was timeless--and seemed to go on forever.

Felt good today--no repercussions from yesterday's RSB session. In fact, it was more like the opposite effect--no sign or evidence that I had been to a session. The sensations were like those after going to a dance class--everything is smoother and less dull.

Will head up to Rescue tomorrow for a dance class--a fun period of moving. So today was R&R--and doing a few errands such as printing out MD's word list of the week.

PD has affected my math skills--I got tangled up trying to balance my checkbook. I had trouble reconciling a series of deposits, withdrawals, and internal transactions--I had to go at it several ways in order to feel secure that everything was accounted properly. In RSB class yesterday, we were asked to move around the room using exaggerated strides--and count backwards from 100 by 3s. It was difficult to keep the strides big and do the counting--it felt like I was having a brain lock. There also was a requirement to swing the arms in sync with the leg movements--left arm forward when right foot was forward and vice-versa. PD doesn't like multitasking--it prefers linear tasks.

Dancing helps with this issue--the step patterns, the count of the steps, and the music are integrated when dancing.

A bit cooler today/tonight--temperatures are staying around the low 90s.

The road work notices say that they are about to begin nighttime activities--not sure what that entails but it might mean noise and dust being generated after midnight. We shall see--or hear soon enough.
