From One Extreme To Another

I don't look like the lady in the photograph, but I probably felt just as good when I went for my run this morning. Talk about from one extreme to another. If you read yesterday's post, then you'll know how negative and menopausal I was feeling. I woke up this morning feeling great, despite a few night sweats! Could this be down to the red wine I treated myself to last night? Or could it be the soya milk latte I had? Or the Alpro soya yogurt? Perhaps it's the sunshine? Or is it just a fluke?

I've come to the conclusion that I have to take each day as it comes. I'm a bit of a stickler for routine, so I get upset when I don't feel up to doing the things I usually do on a set day (like always running three miles on a  Wednesday and a Friday). I felt like running this morning, so that's what I did. Who knows how I'll feel tomorrow?

Anyway, I'm off to do some stretches, then a shower before working on some edits for my pocket novel. I hope to send off a story to The Word Hut Competition today and possibly one to Woman's Weekly Fiction Special. My plan is to bombard the latter with submissions until they have to say yes!!

Good for you, Jo. It's heartwarming to know that today is going so much better than yesterday.
The running is such a positive thing to do, especially with the sun shining as well. x

Glad you're feeling on top of the world today, Jo! Perhaps getting some of the bad stuff out in yesterday's blog post helped as well!

Go, Jo - Go!! Enjoy the good days, and let the less-good slip by. And good luck with those submissions.

Keeping fingers crossed that you have a lengthy reprieve, Jo. Take advantage while you can. <3
