Day 3 & 4: Exercise (Confession)



OK, truth time.

This last week at work has been grueling.  Mostly because of a conflict and the resulting outcome of the situation.  Losing meant a real setback career-wise and possibly the end of my time there; winning means upward and onward.

I literally lost sleep over it.  The night before Day 3 I got about 4 hours of sleep.  I woke up in the middle of the night, and tried to get back to sleep.  No dice.


I ended up getting up and doing some of the things that I meant to do: cleaning up my computer files, deleting some stuff, transferring some video content, etc.

But with Addie sleeping, it's not really the time to put on an exercise video or run on the treadmill.  Besides at 3am (or 4am) who wants to work out?  You want to be sleeping.

I ended up getting about another hour of sleep after Addie left for work.

So the net of it is that I didn't do anything for exercisie Day 3.

EPIC FAIL

Day 4 just as bad.

I at least got sleep, but at this point in the struggle at work, it looked like things were not going to go my way.  I was SUPER bummed.  Distraught.  Depressed a bit.  I just did not want to get out of bed.  I felt defeated.

The good news is that I did get the news I wanted Day 4.  Woohoo!  Sometimes in the midst of cloudy storms, the skies break open and sunlight shines through.  Also, Addie has been amazing: super-supportive, and very compassionate.  She's my other half, that much is for sure.

More on everything later.

Thanks for reading and take care of yourself!
