@tapehead81 This my experience too. Damn hard to explain to others

[Paul Mac @mcfool1]

@Phil_Badger Thanks for confirming that! It’s the same here. Take outs are allowed it’s not a competition. It’s just today’s survival strategy .

@tealedanielle @emmaelainebrown Yes later would be great as I’m rather exhausted! The first half of lockdown I made dance videos and the second I painted!.im exhibition hear in Hebden Bridge but I’ve no idea where the videos might be of interested . Any ideas thanks!

[Paul Mac @mcfool1]

@tealedanielle @emmaelainebrown I would love see that! Lock down taught me I needd more care but not only physical I needed someone to talk to. Someone who could hear my stories and this way we both work together bit by bit. And this way I became WHOLE again .I didn’t need fixing I just need to remember myself

Dancing in a doorway! For those of us with Parkinson’s and have complicated relations with door frames ....

[Paul Mac @mcfool1]

@iaindwelch Brilliant thanks I haven’t had any Caran d’Ache since the early 1980S

[Paul Mac @mcfool1]

I know what you mean . I’m exploring different ways of getting through the door frame and in different styles and objects too like a ball or cushion

@BoyParki That doesn’t look like the view from my bed

[Paul Mac @mcfool1]

@literElly @Repealist_ I can’t agree more and it surprises me every time when an able bodied person thinks you just have to try harder ! ‘You’ve deskilled yourself ‘ yelled a friend when I ground to a halt on night out. Is that even a real word ?

[Paul Mac @mcfool1]

@ParkinsonsArtUK Cool

[Paul Mac @mcfool1]

@BoyParki I love this. great feeling when we find movement solutions Feel like I’m on the right track watching you. I’m not ready for DBS yet but I’ll have to face it at some point. Well done mate

[Paul Mac @mcfool1]
