Digging Myself Out of My Hole
I hope Greg is resting this afternoon. He has worked very hard the last two days. He got frustrated with the house and our accumulated clutter, and made great inroads on virtually all sides yesterday and today. I've been unable to help greatly, with my pain and fatigue. I've gotten frustrated with myself, too. So, today, I am recommitting to exercising each morning. I'm going to move my alarm back to 6:00AM, because I've really gotten used to the 6:30AM, and am waking early, just to drift off and awaken befuddled minutes later.
I've created a checklist to prepare for the mornings each evening. I've identified several of my standard excuses, and want to cut 'em dead. So. I'm bringing my signed commitment home to put on the refrigerator, and a copy of the daily after-work checklist so that my mornings go smoothly. I want to create a big list and cover it, so I can check them off for myself in the morning, too. My brain is not very sharp in the morning these days.
Things I forget, like laundry, need scheduled. Get up, get dressed in exercise outfit, start a load, exercise for 30 mins, reboot load, shower, get dressed, put on jewelry, cook breakfast, eat, take pills, go get load, pick up lunch, water, caffeine, munchies, head out to work.
As I get into the swing of things, I figure to add folding and putting away the load, but I need to see how this goes. Speaking of unplannables... Becca. Oh, yes. She will wake up and want changed, fed, and hopefully put back to bed. Sometimes she wants to get up and be awake. Ouff... I need to plan some way to be ready either way, so it doesn't knock this off the rails.
