Send Me a Muse

Blake warned me this would happen; He said I would reach a point in my recovery where I was at an all time low. Well, low I am. When I was first injured, I felt inspired to explore, learn, watch, discover. I cannot say I was happy about being injured, but I was determined to make the most of my time. I began learning French, studying for my CSCS recert, designing meal plans and workouts for friends.... it felt like every moment of my day was packed.

Now I have no motivation. Reading feels like a chore. I don't have any desire to write my blog or listen to music. I ordered all three seasons of Veronica Mars and she is now a distant memory. My social skills are gone; Holding a conversation becomes a daunting task, especially when every phone call or text begins with, "How's your leg?" I have hit rock bottom.

The great thing about reaching the bottom of the hill is there is nowhere to go but up. As any cyclist or runner knows, going uphill is not easy, but when you reach the top, it feels so good. So I'm going to start climbing now. First of all, I have been painting and I purchased more canvases and supplies today. Many of you have expressed the desire to purchase a painting. If you would like to commission me, I am taking orders now, so please feel free to e-mail or comment on this blog. Also, I am available to design meal plans or workout routines. Please contact me with any questions.

Secondly, I thought I should leave you all with another playlist. This one is another amazing playlist all about... periods. Not grammatical periods. Female monthly irritations. If you don't enjoy the tunes, at least get a kick out of the titles:
