I'm finding myself calling friends on the phone again! Just because...I want to. And I feel like it. And I have the energy to pick up the phone, even while doing other things like...walking!
I'm finding myself turning on the radio in the car again! Just because...I want to. And I feel like it. And I have the energy to sing along, even while doing other things like...turning the steering wheel!

An energizer bunny day at long last
So on Friday I was going non-stop all day long--working, shopping, walking long distances with the spoils of my shopping spree, walking the dog I was sitting, more erranding, and picnic/bbq-ing--and needed only a 2 minute sprawl on the bed to get me through. This is monumental!
It was a poignant moment walking into the Gap outlet that day, grabbing 15 items off the racks, trying them on. Last time I was in there was February and I remember laboring up the stairs to the second floor, only to walk right back out again. I didn't have the energy to even look at a single piece of clothing and decide what I thought about it, let alone lug it into the dressing room and try it on. I never realized how much energy it takes just to shop. Oh the things I took for granted.
So this is why when Jesus healed people, they went jumping and leaping and praising God.
