A short run. I really struggled with this one. I didn't feel great when I woke up this morning. I still don't feel great.
Have I mentioned before that I have a 10 month old baby? She sleeps great most of the time, but the past couple of nights, she's woken up 3:30, 4, 4:30 am and been just ready to play. I am a pretty evil subhuman version of myself at those hours. I'm fortunate enough that my husband is around to help out and go sit with her some of the bad mornings, but I still wake up when she cries. I don't function well with super broken up sleep. Momma needs her beauty sleep!
So I didn't get great sleep last night. I woke up in a foul mood. There's a lot of other personal stuff going on with my siblings, which I won't get into, but needless to say, there's a LOT on my mind.
So usually I run to clear my mind. To de-stress. To calm my nerves and relax.
All I could think about during today's run was how quickly I could get home. And how my pants fit funny and my belly was squishy. and how much stuff I need to do before I go on vacation. And all the sibling stuff. and and and...
There's so much going on -- even a run in gorgeous sunny weather couldn't clear my head today.
I completely understand. And sincerely hope that you get better rest tonight.
ReplyDeleteI hate nights like those. How much we appreciate unbroken sleep the few times we get it!
ReplyDeleteI <3 you. :)
Thank you both. I'm in a much better mood today. More sleep helped tremendously.
