Thursday - Extra Rest day

[Guest guest]

Donna,

Glad to hear you're feeling a tiny bit better. That is a good idea on getting your DD a digital clock. Will she stay in her bed until she see's the 6 though?

Hi,

Although I feel much better, I thought it best to take

an extra rest day. I hope to get back at it tomorrow

with something light and I'll probaby stick with

lighter workouts for the weekend, too, before

following my March plan starting next week.

Oh - get this one - my DD got up today at 4:45 a.m.!

It is getting crazy, she is getting up earlier and

earlier. I drew the line. I told her it was still

night and she had to go back to bed. She complained a

bit, but then did stay in her bed for about another

hour. I'm thinking that this sudden early wakening

has started b/c of the switch to the big girl bed.

She can now get up on her own - she was always good

about staying in her crib and playing with the toys

and books I had left for her the night before. Now

that she realized she can get up on her own she does.

I'm thinking this mild virus thing worked out well for

me, since I had the patience this morning to coax her

back to bed. I think if I were working out, I'd be

more likely to give in and let her go downstairs with

me just for the sake of getting through my workout.

Since the weekend is here, I think I'm going to take

off from my morning workouts and try to do them in the

afternoons/evenings and hopefully I can get her into a

pattern where she'll sleep a bit later. I " m also

going to put a digital clock in her room and show her

was 6:00 a.m. (that is the earliest I think I can

stand - I'd like something later, but I'll take what I

cana get) looks like. She does know her numbers and

maybe if I tell her that that is " day time " she will

be more willing to stay in bed a bit longer. I may

also switch my workout times for next week to evenings

- which means some nights, I won't be able to start

until about 9:00, just until I can get her

straightened out. Who knows, maybe I'll like it

better?! Although, I don't like getting up early, I

do like the sense of accomplishment I get w/ an early

workout - I get the sense that after a long hard day,

9:00 p.m. is just going to seem too late for me.

Also, I made it through Day 1 of the junk food

challenge! WOO HOO! It was nice to wake up hungry

this morning rather than bloated. I need to remember

that....

Take care everyone!

Donna

Thanks, !

Only time will tell! No pun intended. I'll let you

know if it works. If it doesn't I may just have to

live with her and Clifford being in the same room with

me when I workout. I " m going to give evenings a go

for a few days or all of next week to see if I can

adjust. But, I think I feel better physically once

I've had my a.m. workout (I have trouble getting up,

but once I'm up I like to get it done!)

Take care!
