Not a clue what to call this

Wow, I've been thinking so hard this past week that now I'm all disoriented. We have been setting up group therapy options for Attic Therapy for the summer, and I have been concentrating on sorting out a bunch of logistics and philosophical theoretical STUFF and now the mailout is DONE and I am just useless. It's fortunate I have nothing very pressing to do today except to pack to visit my brother and his family this weekend. I'm in the sort of headspace to get lost on the way to PA.

This weather probably doesn't help at all. It's cold and gray and windy and depressing. Really hard to believe that this weekend will be 10 above. I have been searching all over the house for a book to read to kind of "reboot". There's nothing here, because all my favorite books have been reread 12 times or are up in the barn still - and it's just too cold to feel like rummaging around up there. So I'm starting Robert Jordan's Wheel of Time series for the fourth time. That's pretty desperate. But it's in the house. And certainly qualifies as escape. Does anyone have any suggestions in case I can get to the library today before piano lessons? We will be traveling for at least 7 hours to get there and it's pretty hard to talk that long with three interested little commenters in the back seat.

I did do my "Cindy" workout today and am feeling pretty proud of myself that I can now get through it pretty much without injury. My sisters-in-law all know the video-that hour long one that is insanely hard. She made it well before she had kids, that's for sure. I've been easing back into shape since December and this week was able to do a couple of actual runs outside (through cold depressing snowy weather, yech) as long as I walk every 3-4 minutes. My knees are shot and my shoulders are shot and probably I should just bike already but I hate biking on account of the world goes by you so fast that if you are the least bit disoriented (which I frequently am) it is hard to keep track of basic safety information such as trucks approaching from behind. Dan does not understand that at all but he has superb sensory integration and is a bit of a snob. All my clients would understand totally.

Well, spring has to come eventually. It came and went and that was a tease but the world is tilting. It really is. The light is incredibly different than even a month ago, reminding me that technically we are already in the best part of the year and I should take advantage of it, but it is hard to imagine that very cold rutted garden ever coming to life. I am so looking forward to this spring and working with the horses for large chunks of time. It may actually be possible!

Anyway, I am also proud of myself for posting on this blog and not forgetting to for another 3 months! Trying to nurture good habits! Talk to you again!
