Whoa! We bought a house!

So, we bought a house about a week and a half ago, and it's been fun. Busy and confusing and tiring and even emotional, but also fun. Amid the mental chaos that accompanied the processes of buying and moving into our house I kind of forgot to go running or ride my bike for a few weeks. Or I was exhausted from thinking about buying a house, wondering what some of the piles of papers were that  I just signed, even though they made perfect sense at the time.
What happens when I forget to run or ride my bike? A dullness takes over my body and mind. Does that even make sense? A dullness? It's more like all the cells in my body feel heavier and slower and sadder and angrier. But it creeps up on me, so I don't notice it right away, until one day I'm wondering why everything is so hard and why I don't like my life anymore.
So I'm running again.  It's hard because I don't want to at first, but then again I don't want to do anything, so why not do what I know will help me feel better?
