The First Morning After

10:00am

So last night, I put Nate down and crashed by 10:30pm (this is EARLY EARLY for me if you dont know me!) This morning I didn't even hear my alarm clock until around 7:50am. It'd been going on for a while (its set for 6:45am). So needless to say, I was a bit late for work.

How do I feel? Well... the second I turned over and opened my eyes, I realized my back hurt a bit, my abs were a bit sore and my left hip flexor (I think thats what its called- the part on the front of your leg where your hip connects to your leg?) are quite sore. Upon further investigation- a lot of me is sore! BUT- thats good- right? No Pain No Gain!!

I actually feel a LITTLE more energetic this morning overall- despite the soreness. Not a lot- mind you... but a tiny bit! I even feel like I'm walking straighter, standing taller- WEIRD and prob all in my head... but... alas, thats how I feel!


Now I'm just trying to figure out when I'll be able to exercise again. I want to push myself. This will be a process and change can't possibly happen overnight, but I can do this!! (friends- dont let me give up on myself when it gets hard! PLEASE!!!! I want this! Remind me of that. I started it.) FYI as you might have noticed, this blog is going to be a bit of me trying to motivate myself to do the stuff that I've never wanted to do (work out consistently, etc)


Anyway, I'm going to change me. One Day at a TIME! :)


That reminds me of a song by Sanctus Real:
Change Me

Did I change your mind with
What I said last night?
Did I break your heart by
Straying so far?
From what you have in mind
For my life?

Would you change me from
Who I've been lately?
'Cause I know I'm nothing
Without you

Did my words betray the
Patience I once claimed
Can't you see it in my face?
I need your grace

Would you change me from
Who I've been lately?
'Cause I know I'm nothing
Without you
Would you save me from
The way I've been lately?
'Cause I can't see living
Without you

Would you change me from
Who I've been lately?
'Cause I know I'm nothing
without you
Would you break me from
The way I've been lately?
'Cause I can't see living
Without you
