working for happy

see what i did this evening after i whipped myself into shape and tackled the jobs i'd been avoiding all day? i really should know better by now: quiet joys are so much more enjoyable when you've worked hard to earn them. maybe that's why i had such fun taking a picture of my feet after my work. :)

and maybe that's why i'm so enjoying being in this space tonight, as well. because taking an evening run (with my brother!) has cleared my head and given me that new spark of energy. of happy.

i think God gave us "work" for a reason, don't you?!
