Mornings.... Mornings and I have a love/hate relationship. I would love to love mornings. I love the idea of mornings. I love the idea of getting up early and getting stuff done - mainly getting a run in nowadays - and I love the peace and quiet that are inherently a part of the early morning routine. However, when the alarm goes off at 5am I have NEVER jumped out of bed, or even rolled out slowly, to tackle the day. This morning I hit the snooze button every ten minutes until 6:30 when I could no longer put off getting up. The one thing that would entice me to get up any sooner is coffee. Since I have not trained Blue yet to turn the coffee pot on, let alone actually fetch me a cup, I should probably utilize the programming feature so that when I do finally roll myself out of bed and work out the kinks walking to the kitchen, the coffee would be ready for me. Instead I get up, turn it on, and then lay back down until the next alarm goes off. Having said all of that, when I did get up and put my running shoes on, it felt so good to get out in the briskness of the morning and get my run in. I ran 2.5 miles this morning at a pretty good pace. Thanks to Blue of course. He seems to love mornings or it's just that he loves to run!
Love the owl! I agree, starting out is half the battle. Good job today. Deb B.
ReplyDeleteOk, here goes again. I give you so much credit for just getting up that early to do any type of exercise. I also think that Blue is a "woman's best friend" and is cheering you on all the way. I am very proud of you for doing what you do Tami.
ReplyDeleteI will keep track of your progress through your blog now. Good luck and keep up the great work. Love you, Aunt Cheryl
