I clocked 55 miles on the odometer today, just going back and forth between dance and tumbling. I did this after a full day of work, and then I came home and had dinner and had a Zoom meeting with my NAMI co-facilitator, took a shower, and somehow still felt like I could run around…
I had fun with Valentine’s Day this year, which is really a testament to how I’ve been feeling for the last six months or so. I’m not sure which switch flipped or how, but this is probably the first time in my life I have actually felt good for more than a week or two.…
