Last night was just one of those nights where no one got any sleep. Not even the dog. We tossed and turned and when one settled the other fidgeted. Then finally in a great spot, nice and comfy and the baby wakes up. Not just a slight toss and turn cranky, but full blown fever and needing some snuggles. At this point it is 12:30 am and all I can think of, "I teach in less then 6 hours".
When my alarm went off at 5:17am all I wanted was another 5 hours of sleep...is that too much to ask for?? By the time my husband and I settled our poor teething baby girl it was after 2. Then my asthma decided to kick in and keep me up until 3:30. Lots of fun....the whole not breathing really made me happy.
So, on my way to the gym and made the conscious effort to wake up and get happy and energized because the last thing I would want to do, is start someones day off wrong. Turned up the music and started singing!!
Class went great! Lot of energy and happy sweaty people.
When I got home, my plan was to crawl back into bed next to my hubby and get some sleep. The funny this is, when I got home, I just wanted to have some water and sit and enjoy the silence. The quiet of the morning when nothing is happening. No one is demanding my attention, the only sound is nature all around and the peace and quiet is astounding.
It brought back memories from training when one of the instructors talked about how every morning she would wake up early in order to have her morning tea by herself. At the time we all thought she was crazy. I think I am starting to understand.
That being said 2 hours of sleep just wasn't quite enough to get me through my day, so I ended up going back to bed for a power snooze.
Great start to any day....YOGA at 6am
Mmm waking up early and having a nice tea or coffee is the best thing ever :)
