Na na na na na na! Like I knew that I would! Na na na na na na!
Thank you James Brown, godfather of soul for writing a song that so nicely expresses what I feel – I feel good! Yes gentle readers, there has been a transformation of late that, while not exactly on the scale of the resurrection perhaps, has still infused me with new life. I have energy! EN-ER-GY!! Been so long without it, I find it just a tad unsettling. I can go through my day without feeling like I have anchors tied around my feet. I don’t fall asleep in my chair in the late afternoon. I can remember things and focus on my writing. I’m sleeping wonderfully well, have a ravenous appetite, and am back to a full workout, although still at a lower intensity. Mind you, I still ready for bed at 8:00 or 8:30 pm., which is sometimes a bit of an inconvenience, but hey, I can handle inconvenience! I scoff at inconvenience!
And I’m looking forward to things that used to be simply overwhelming – like tomorrow I’m having lunch with a colleague in Windsor and on Friday I’m going to an art show at a Windsor gallery. Just a few weeks ago I’d have had to refuse both events or worse, forced myself to go and then had to deal with the consequences. Not pretty.
I’m getting my life back, friends, and I’m loving it!
