Sleep, Not as Sore and Getting Things Done!

I got some much needed sleep last night.  It was 6 1/2 hours of amazing, uninterrupted sleep.  The uninterrupted part is the amazing, as usually one of the boys are up at least once in the middle of the night and want me for something.  I'm also not as sore as yesterday as last night's exercises my coach went a little bit lighter on us.  I am fitting into my work trousers I can only wear when I'm on the much thinner side; although my shirt is not tucked in, so I'm still not 100% there.  I also woke up at 5AM for the 3rd day in the row to get my cardio in since I don't have the time to do it with the other exercises at night.  I'm so proud of me!!!  I'm not a first-thing-in-the-morning workout type person and I'm becoming one.  Go me!

I really can't wait to have my roots touched up tonight!  Usually at this point, I don't want to be bothered by my hair, which one can tell as it's in a bun right now. God the lighting is awful at work!  I also borrowed earrings from Phoebe that I found she had that perfectly matched my shirt.



Today at work, I have so much to get done.  My plan is to work 30-45 minute increments on something hard and time consuming and then take a break for 10-15 minutes.  Maybe I'll be lucky and on those breaks I'll get to catch up on blog reading.  I have work stuff to do, but then I also have summer camp forms to fill out for the boys and I really want to work on my list of contacts for Beachbody opportunities (could be a program that would be good for them or coaching) and start sending them some messages.   It doesn't hurt to ask and I really do love the company and their products.

That's why I go blonde. Then I don't mind having grey hair. They blend with the blonde!!!

I discovered you via Airing My Dirty Laundry...I lived in Landenberg during my middle school and high school years. :) So sad to hear that The Landenberg Store is closing.

I love how you say 6.5 hours of uninterrupted sleep :)

It's the best!

Do you track your sleep on the jawbone?

Hi Karen. Too funny in this large world to find someone else on-line that knows this little burg of Landenberg! Is the Landenberg Store closing? I didn't hear that. They just fixed the bridge that was closed for so long right next to it. Gotta love the smell of mushroom soil to live here!

Hi Marcia! I do track my sleep on my Jawbone. it was actually the original reason I got it and not to track my steps. I was convinced I wasn't getting enough sleep or I was being woken up several times a night by little people. So when I get 6.5 hours with no wake ups, I can tell the next day! I feel so refreshed!

Bad Dreams Go Away Magic Spell

Wow! Two posts in one day!!! I just had to blog about this. Indigo Girl had posted about her daughter having bad dreams and looking for advice. I had to post what we do in our house to keep away bad dreams. I have to admit it was one of my most brilliant mommy moments as I pulled this one out of my a$$ when I came up with it. When Phoebe was about 3 or 4 years old, she started complaining about nightmares. I knew it was half true and half stalling for bedtime. She has always been very into witches, wizards and spells (heck she was named after the character on Charmed and my due date was Halloween), so I came up with a magic spell on the spot to keep away bad dreams. I figured all it had to do was rhyme. I will share it with you all and feel free to try it if you need it: Bad dreams, bad dreams go away In Phoebe's dreams she must play She should dream of ice cream and cake Until the morning when she wakes She loves it! She still asks for it sometimes if she's had a ni...

Stopping the Voices in my Head - aka Mastering my Mindset

The more I work on my personal development, the more I realize I need to stop listening to and changing the negative things I tell myself in my head.  I'm also noticing the older I get the more the negative things I hold as beliefs about myself are not true.  This reinforces that I should second guess the other negative beliefs I hold inside ... maybe those are not true either.  Here are a few things I've realized are not true: I need help to put air in my car tires - This was one of the first things I learned as my husband had to move to Colorado for work. I did this at the Wawa up the street where the machine will stop and beep when your tires are at the right pressure.  I also learned and committed to memory that the pressure you want your tires at is inside your gas cap, something I have to open at least once a week.  This was something that was super easy to learn to do and had me zipping along the roads in a few minutes without the anxiety...
