I haven’t ran in weeks. Until Monday night, I hadn’t gone out dancing in almost as long. Both have been calling me. They want me to return. They missed me…and I missed them.
In a previous post I had mentioned my loss of desire which was due to various amounts of stress. The thing is both dance and running are excellent stress relievers. Why would I cut out that which calms me down and makes me happy?
I can be a real twit sometimes. Lol.
I answered the call to dance this past Monday evening. I went to a nice spot in Dupont Circle NW. In the beginning I only wanted to go to enjoy 50 cent tacos, mexican beer, and the sounds of Salsa. I really didn’t want to dance. Not at first. Of course, I couldn’t resist. I ended up having a great time.
I have yet to answer the call for running. It’s been so long that I’ll need to start again and build up. It has been very hot lately and that has been keeping me off the pavement. I’m giving a schedule change a whirl. I’m going to see how mornings work for me. This may not work once my season starts but I will still make the effort to try. Trial run this coming morning…if I ever make it to sleep. Lol.
There are some changes coming around the bend for me and quickly. I, at least, want to have these two things in place before these changes settle in. Both are great for my physical well being. Both make me happy.
I will continue to yield to these newly restored desires. If they keep a smile on my face then why not? 🙂
