It Happens

August 16, 2012

in Random Thoughts

Last night I went to bed at 10:30 and this morning I got up the first time my alarm went off (4:55am…). And I was in a good mood, it was a really nice temperature out when I left the house, the sunrise was pretty, I got to work 15 minutes early, and all I want from today is all the water I can drink.

I know, right?

I feel like the funk I’ve been in for the past 3 weeks has finally lifted. I don’t have it all figured out (“it” being the stuff that’s been on my mind lately) but I’m not letting all of that get to me as much as it has been. It feels really good to feel like myself again.

Sometimes you need to let yourself fall apart. Sometimes you need to just drag yourself through it. Sometimes you need to fall apart and drag yourself at the same time. Whatever works.

Here’s to making it through and coming out stronger.

Hahaha, Nah girl. On a normal day I legitimately hit the snooze button from 4:55 until 5:45 or 6 every day, but on a bad day it’s closer to 6:30. I probably should have explained that in my post! But I keep my alarm set for 4:55 though because my gym opens at 5 and though I have get to make fetch happen, I keep thinking one of these days I will get my ass out of bed and hit the gym before work. Maybe when they re-open our pool. Or when pigs fly.

Wow. Go you!!!! I’ve never seen 4:55am unless I’ve stayed up all night… or had to get up in the middle of the night to .. you know … TMI. :)

Adios Funk!!!

I aim for 4:55 with the goal of making it to the gym every morning before work. So far it’s not going well for me, but in the fictional future when I have my act together I will get in bed on time every night and wake up ready to rock a workout. Someday…
