Hey cali,
Root is right. I was so caught up on being a dad and husband I forgot about myself. Before I got laid up and I was GALing. I really did start feeling better about myself. Before I always found an excuse why I could not do something I wanted to do.
I really did start to feel young again. This in turn shows in your attitude.
I went for 18 years not doing things for me and just started 2 months ago. I have been laid up for the last 2 weeks and I MISS GALing.
It's hard the first time you go out but like anything it gets easier.

Do it for you.
Husband
