A Nice Day

Thursday, August 28, 2014

A good night's sleep. Feeling almost fresh and nearly normal. Thinking a little slowly but the world is bright and in focus.

Walking down the hall involved a little bit of course correction but this is just an affirming touch, not a running into doorways thing or grabbing for support like yesterday. I got around without a single moment even suggesting a fall or potential fall.

The closest thing to disorientation, however, was holding a thought. I needed to take out the trash and hopefully fetch the vehicle inspection from the Oldsmobile in order to renew the car tags online. I remembered both things, but since I had forgotten the keys to the car I would need to go back inside for that. I replaced the trash bag in the trash can and still remembered that I needed the car keys so that was good. When I went to get the keys I found myself in a different room wondering why I was there so I backtracked for the keys and got the paper from the car. Looking at the computer I remembered that I would need the tax receipt for a question that I remembered would be part of the online transaction. On the way to the room where that was I thought I would need my glasses also. I got my glasses and returned and forgot--as I write I forgot what I forgot but see it on the table in front of me and now the picture of my getting that tax receipt comes back into view.

I am surprised at how often I have to go back to correct typing errors. I used to be a pretty good typist and compared to how hard it was yesterday afternoon, I'm doing quite well.
