Mixed Feelings

Feeling ridiculously pleased with myself for getting to the gym for the second time this week, and feeling similarly pleased with the part of myself that comprises my body for not breaking down (yet) as a result. Also feeling tired in the extreme as a result of my efforts in the gym and sort of waiting for the inevitable collapse likely to follow. But also feeling I wasn't firing on all cylinders today, feeling like I wasn't quite all there somehow in an irritable sort of fashion. Oh, and not to forget, feeling extremely full after munching a number of mini-shepherd's-pies, courtesy of the lady of the house - and feeling very grateful indeed for those highlights of the day.
