The problem with waking up early is that the day can end up being so much longer than you’d like it to be.

So this morning I get off the elevator, card in to the floor and I’m walking through the kitchen on the way to my office when a colleague of mine says “Hey! You look terrible! What happened to you?”

awesome.

Seriously, I am ready to go back to bed. I fell asleep in the car on the way to work. Luckily, I wasn’t driving.
I went to the gym a little before 7 and had my ass kicked for an hour. It is good for me.

Chalk it up to the oppressive heat (it’s not that bad, but the forecast for Sunday is 95F) but I haven’t been in a sharing mood lately. This is the worst year for allergies that I can remember. I’ve been a miserable mess for the past 3 weeks and it’s been a struggle to get out of bed every morning. I’ve been going to the gym with Jeremie every morning and that doesn’t make getting out of bed any easier. These allergies are roughing me up something fierce. I am ready to be done.

Last night I spent a little over an hour weeding in the garden. I made some progress, but there’s probably 5 more hours of weeding left to do. Kind of nuts. Once I have everything weeded I really need to be vigilant and spend at least 15 minutes every day out there on preventative care. My to-do list is long and all I really want to do is nap. All this sunshine makes me want to be outside, or at least anywhere other than my desk.
