All Good

It is almost 7 o'clock on Sunday night and I am sitting in bed with a cat purring by my side while I finish off the bottle of wine that kept me pleasantly buzzed this weekend. I am all prepared for tomorrow and the upcoming week at work. Physical therapy is done. Basketball is almost done. Colorado is coming soon.

What is even better is that I can feel myself start coming to life again. I did things this weekend that made me feel like me again. At times, I had to stop and make myself think about what these things are. Just like some people ask themselves "what would Jesus do?" I have to ask myself "what would I do?" in order to get myself active and out of my mental hibernation, but in time these things will start to come naturally again.

I love this time of the year in Texas because it feels like spring time in Colorado. I can walk around for the next 4 months pretending that summer is just around the bend, and then I can actually start planning my move. Packing. Ordering a U-Haul. Buying a plane ticket. I know things won't be easy once I get out of here, but at least I will be able to be me again.
