Feeling Good (100 Word Song)

Lance and Leroy let me pick the song for this week's 100 Word Song challenge and Nina Simone's "I Feel Good" seemed to be an appropriate tune for the beginning of spring. It's nice that Lance and Leroy let me pick on occasion. 

Lance at the 100 Word Song Challenge asks you to write 100 words (no more, no less) in whatever genre, or fashion you are inspired to write in, using the song of the week to get you there. 
 
This week's 100 Word Song challenge inspiration is from Nina Simone's "I Feel Good"




Here's my 100:

She shifted her legs into the shimmery fabric one at a time. The pants slid over her hips, and rested comfortably where he liked to put his hands. She could still feel his breath over her shoulder, when she put on the spring green camisole that brought out the green in her eyes. She checked her look in the mirror, and added a bit of colour to her lips.

"Yeah, I feel good," she said.

Months of physical training had paid off, today she would tackle the 6 miles to work at an easy pace, comfortable in her own skin.

  2. Six miles sounds good. Is she gonna run the entire way or do the Galloway Walk-Run method? I know, I know, she sounds like one of those skinnies who run the entire way.

  3. I love the positive vibe to this k~! The idea that she is her own cheerleader makes her unstoppable. I mean, unless a bus were to inadvertently hit her I suppose.
