Awakening

Here's an email I sent to a friend of mine, slightly edited.
So 10 weeks ago of so I started working out again with the goal of being in better shape by the time I turned 40. I turned 40 last Monday and for the most part it's worked. I feel pretty good. The muscle memory is still pretty good though it's taking me 2 days or so to recover between work outs. I'm assuming that if I keep it up the recovery time will improve. Anyhow I woke up this morning with an idea for a website http://www.fightingfathertime.com/. Sort of a site for newly middle aged men with articles about how to get or stay in good health. In my pre-waking moments I envisioned a community site, local, personal, growing as users join... So I woke up walked the dogs, fed the dogs, fed the cats, answered some work emails and looked at website building sites. Almost immediately I started to lose interest. You've got free site builders, pay small fee for sites, Wiki's... Easily overwhelmed I looked at simply doing a blog, but blogging scares me. I feel exposed and don't know that I really want to pour my thoughts out to just anyone. So, I'm mulling over a site but just needed to air my thoughts. I'm going to let my chickens out now and get my day going. I'm nervously waiting for the Superbowl tonight. Go Patriots!
