Oh. My. Poor. Tired. Body.
Day 6 was harder. I’m not sure why but I’m leaning towards the fact that it’s a Monday. For some reason, I have never really gotten along with that day of the week. It could also be because I am dealing with a bit of a stomach virus, but I like blaming everything on Mondays, so that’s what I’m sticking with.
Even though my sleepy mind complained in the beginning, I completed my routine. I’m hoping that I will sleep better tonight and so is my husband. I was a tad bit on the cranky side this morning. Okay, maybe more than a tad but not full-fledged evil either. So that’s an improvement!
I think watching TV during this whole process has helped. It takes my mind off of the details that bog me down, like how much longer I have left or how far I’ve gone. So I picked a great series to revisit: Buffy the Vampire Slayer. It’s well within the genre I write and has wonderful quips to entertain that part of me that enjoys sarcasm so much. (Oh come on – you know Josh Whedon rocks so don’t give me any grief!)
Now, if I could conquer that whole “getting up with a smile, full of energy and good spirits” thing then I might be truly making some progress!
Stick with it! I’m a HUGE exercise fan. Just remember, no matter how much the exercise might suck at the time, NOT doing it will, in the long run, suck even more! =D
Thanks Steven! I’m doing my best to keep it up. I do feel better after the fact! It’s just that getting up at 5:45 a.m. that’s killing me – I so do love my sleep! lol!
If you can conquer getting up with a smile and full of energy, please share the “how to” with your mother ! Getting up at o-dark-thirty has never been my forte…however, I have being a night owl down pat !
Keep up the good work…and do a few miles for me !
