Puddle

Anytime I have a deadline of any significance (which is not very often for which I am grateful), my adrenalin surges as I finish the task. Then, I'm done, and the surge plows right out of me. And then? I'm a puddle.

I finished the taxes this morning. No sweat, really, since I'd been working on them on and off since last weekend. But, not to my body, apparently. The adrenalin has had its way.

In my puddlehood I've made some calls. My mid-life awakening continues and I am approaching a dream I've had my eyes trained on for years. Learning how to play the cello. I can rent one from a local music studio for about $400 for a year (initial 3 month outlay an affordable $140). I am looking for a teacher and, in the fall, may switch over to the university music prep conservatory where I can get a bit of a "family" discount.

A happy puddle am I.

Wow, the cello! Good luck with that and I'll look forward to you putting on a little show for me.
