With Sierra sitting around the seventh month mark, I know what’s coming down the line…it’s called daycare. With daycare, I’m assuming the days of waking up at 6:45 are over and I’ll have to start waking up earlier.
You know what that means…it’s time to train myself to wake up earlier! Faithful readers of this site will remember my crazy plan of weaning myself off of sleep when Sierra’s due date grew closer. No more sleeping for 9 hours…I started going to bed later and later so my body could grow accustomed to less sleep. Well, it’s time to get back on that horse again!
This time around, I’m waking up 45 minutes earlier but I figure since I have a few months until Sierra goes to daycare, I may as well make good use of that time…so the unimaginable has happened and I am watching Star Trek: The Next Generation while on the elliptical each morning. I never thought I could do anything physical in the morning, but here I am and I have to say it isn’t too bad at all. Plus, hanging out with my friends of the starship Enterprise is a good way to start the morning.
Sidenote: I’m loving when I stumble upon an episode that I have never seen before! I’m on Season 4 and it’s happened twice so far. It’s a fantastic feeling when you get to see something you’ve never seen before.
I’m sure when Sierra hits up daycare, this time with the elliptical will be non-existent and be replaced with feeding her and clothing her and all that jazz…but for now, time to take advantage of it.
