Jane get me off this crazy thing...


This is how I felt last week, while we were polar vortexing, as I tried to manage my regular job, my side gig, fundraiser trivia prep, bike team logistics, and captaining.

This week, I facilitated a multi-day meeting of smart, engaged local public health department leaders, researchers, and lawyers in STL. It was tiring, and I am afraid of all I need to do the next few days to catch up on work and volunteer stuff, but I am oddly calm as I sit here, delayed at the airport.

🚴‍♀️ Is it exhaustion?
🚴‍♀️ Am I recharged by the great conversation and interesting ideas?
🚴‍♀️ Am I at peace because I got to be pampered by my aunt and uncle in STL?
🚴‍♀️ Was it my mini run at the hotel this morning (until I accidentally hit the treadmill's emergency stop button)?
🚴‍♀️ Is it resignation?
🚴‍♀️ Is it my Starbucks oatmeal dinner putting me in a coma? (It sure isn't the big cup of coffee I just drank.)
Regardless of what it is, it sure is nice. I should open my laptop, but might just daydream about summer bike rides instead.
