Is this what it's like??

I haven't done a thing in the way of exercise since last Thursday. If I wasn't in so much pain it would have drove me nuts, then I felt better and it did..... now I'm kind of easing into a more relaxed approach. There are so many hours in the day, and God knows I certainly don't want more! I'm really focusing on slowing down...not being so busy. I seem to clutter my life with things and activities I claim are important (or at least the outcome produced) but I wasn't getting the results wanted & never consistently felt good. I think this rest time was needed. I'll start back next week, but not with a vengeance.....I just don't need to.

Then, there's the other woman....the one that's getting the attention I want & need. Yes, I'm jealous.
She's brand new and she belongs to Mike...all of her. Sure, she may be sleek, light as a feather and beautiful as hell....but at the end of the day can she have an intelligent conversation with him? Share a cup of coffee at Barnes & Noble? Make him laugh? (Damn...maybe so...this is starting to hurt!) Well, I'm not worried. Her tires will go flat, her paint will chip and someday, yes someday....she'll be replaced. I'm here for good. ;)

Live passionately!

Hi Deb,
I sense a big "exhale" in your post which sometimes is exactly what we need....to just slow things down and regroup. As for the other 'woman', you're right...she is beautiful. BUT just as you said, her beauty will fade. And under that sleek facade, is a fickle woman that will only serve to get your man from point A to point B...and after many long miles, this Quintana Roo beauty will be nothing but a figmant of his imagination once he sees you waiting for him with open arms! :) My hubby's bike is a beautiful titanium Litespeed - not new, but beautiful all the same....however, he named it "Phat Bastard" so I guess I have that going for me. :) Anyway, take care of yourself and I hope your back is feeling better soon! All the best, ~Kelly

Take it easy with the back and get well.
You have reason to be jealous- that's a nice looking bike.

Take care of youself and you will be back before you know it! The bike is beautiful, but I am pretty sure her intelectual ability is quite below yours!

That's one nice looking Quintana Roo. I'll be she's higher maintenance, though.

And you probably don't have to sleep in the garage.

I don't think you have anything to worry about from the "other woman", Deb.

She will bring him pain and suffering way more than she will bring him any joy and I'm sure it is the exact opposite from you!

Well, pain and suffering from the new bike if I get my way!

It looks like you are finding a good balance, and starting to take care of both your body and your soul. I am sure that God is smiling.
