Sunshine is Coming

Yesterday was a series of stressful events, including getting written up at work, and while I indulged in a one-man complaint fest, I didn't allow myself to comfort with food.  By the end of the night, I was stressed out and irritated with everyone.  I was an emotional wreck. 
It is really hard for me to let go of yesterday's stress, but I am resolving to turn my week around.  I will chalk it up to being a bad Monday, and move on.  At least, that's my plan.
It has also been really hard to talk myself into doing cardio in the mornings, despite having access to a nice fitness room at my complex.  It requires walking outside in the shivery-cold, dark morning, and usually I have several layers and blankets on me inside the house and am still shivering.  It is an excuse, and I need to stop allowing it.  My husband's schedule at work changed, which means our morning routines clash, and it has me a little discombobulated.  I will find my groove again, it'll just take a little extra planning.  It is affording me a little more sleep in the morning, which is nice, but I could be putting that time to much more productive use.
I am so looking forward to the sunshine making an appearance today, and I am especially looking forward to this weekend, when I can have a warm, and flavorful cheat meal with my boys.  My husband has a gig booked (a paid modeling appearance) on Friday, so I'll probably take my kids for a nice meal and maybe ice cream.  I may not have anything sweet, but I may have a few glasses of wine once they are in bed. 
Ah, sweet weekend, hurry along!

  1. Sleep time is productive time, you don't have to be running around like a blue arsed fly all the time. Or beating yourself up about it when you aren't. Autumn is here and I'm feeling the same. It's too wet/dark/cold to go out, it's a challenge but limit youself to a cople of cario sessions a week and try to set those times in stone so you work the rest of your schedule around them instead of the other way around. Chin up.
