I'm Employed! I blame exercise.

Cool! This morning I sent an email and received a phone response on the last questions regarding the new contract. Some changes will be made and a new version with a signature will be sent ASAP. I'll be starting work in one week!

Which is going to be hard... after 2.5 months of leisure time.

But I think my gym membership is going to nicely solve lots of those little problems. For example, today I was up before 9am. I've handled the last contract paperwork, am off to the gym in a moment, and then am going to help a friend hook up a cable modem. Without the exercise, I would still be asleep.

In just a couple of days I've already felt a huge benefit from working out. And perhaps even better, in just a couple of days of working out other people have seen the difference in me! Two friends mentioned it; one at length!

I've been exercising regularly for most of the past 7 years. So regaining some muscle tone didn't take long. Although it has been a bit painful. Today I'll be hitting some of the same muscles for a second time. (Which reminds me, I need to stretch more.) It's gonna hurt. But if I have energy, health, and compliments as a result of just a few days, how can I not keep going!?!

So today is simple. Good fortune has come my way. I'm off to invest in the future to ensure the health to enjoy it all. And later I'm helping a friend who's experiencing a good-fortune shortage and hopefully passing along some luck. Wow.

I blame the exercise for all of this.
