The Early Bird Gets...Tired...Early...

So, I decided that I was going to reset my "internal clock". At the beginning of the week I told Josh that I was going to begin waking up at 7-730am every morning. 
 
I figured that because so many things were going to be going on this year I should probably just prepare myself for it now. Now for those of you that know me, I am late to bed and...well... late to rise! I enjoy my sleep! 
The main reason I felt the need for this change is because Bing will be starting school this fall, and he also goes to bed pretty late. He wakes up usually around 9am but thats not going to cut it when school roles around. I just knew that I really needed to get him on a different schedule NOW! The other reasons were because I don't like missing out on my mornings, I feel like I get way more done early on than I do as the day goes by, and lately I have a lot to do. Then the fact that little miss Kennadie shall be arriving soon, I already know that she will be changing my sleep schedule. So it was just time!


So back to the actual waking up early part... Well I have been doing pretty awesome if I don't say so myself. I have been pretty strict on myself and just getting out of bed, drinking a cup of coffee, getting ready right away, and then enjoying the rest of my day with my SON. I... also love the fact that because I have been waking up so early, I just fall asleep around midnight (I know, that's not early to most) but being home alone at night I have issues going to sleep and this is helping so much!!! It is also helping my energizer bunny of a child to "knock out" the second his head hits the pillow! Which I love! 

Needless to say I am very proud of myself for accomplishing this task, it might not seem like a big thing to most, but for me it is I am horrible with going to sleep, and then waking up. I needed this change. I just hope that laziness does not overcome me and I can continue this streak.

I know this wasn't much of a post, but I felt the need to gloat and be proud of myself.
