Freedom!
I went for a walk today. I took Kia along. We had to walk along the road because there were still several sections covered in an slushy ice mixture. Kia was disconcerted by this and swore she needed to walk down the middle of the road.
I digress. As I started my walk I realize that it was the first time I wasn't FREEZING while outside in almost 3 months. It was around 55 degrees and I couldn't get enough air. I inhaled deeply over and over enjoying the smooth quality of the humid air as it filled my lungs. I don't usually get cabin fever but with the 2 weeks of recovery and being couped up in the house and then the awful ice storm, I really haven't been outside much. I don't think it matters how big the house is if you feel stranded and can't leave it.
I felt free and I felt my worries melt away even though it was short lived, it was fabulous. Now I'm back to the same ole, same ole. I feel like the Dad from the Twisted Sister video is screaming "WHat are YOUUUUUUUU gonna DOOO with your Liiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiife?"
I think I shall go for 5 or 6 walks tomorrow.
