Back on Schedule

Last week, I lived by Morrigan's philosophy, "You'll have time to sleep when you die". I got up at 5:45 am to go workout, attended training from 8:00 am - 5:30 pm, would stay and have dinner with some of the managers and then spend time with some of my friends that were also attending training from out of town. I'd stay out until about 12 or so, go home, and repeat. So, by Friday, I was ready to SLEEP!

I slept in on Friday instead of going to work (I put in my 40 hours that week) I thought I had caught up Friday, but I slept ALL WEEKEND! I'd sleep 9-10 hours in my bed, then go to the living room, do a couple of things, and then take a nap on the couch for a couple of hours. I'd do a few more things, and then go sleep in my bed for a couple of hours. Then I just turned into a TV watching, sleeping fool! And we all know there is nothing on TV on the weekends...so I basically hibernated!

You would have thought I got enough rest....but no! It was all restless sleep. I was dreaming real things. It drove me nuts! There are times I wish my brain had an off switch!

So thanks to all that "sleep", I couldn't fall asleep Sunday night until about 3am, but woke up at 7 am to go work out. When I came home, I was exhausted! I even came home from work early because I was so dead tired. I got on the computer and kept dozing. I wanted to stay up until bedtime to get back on a schedule, but I just couldn't do it.

Do you ever get so tired, you just feel sick! You either gotta get up and do something or pass out right there. That's how I was! So I figured I'd lay down for a few minutes on the couch. Kiki curled up next to me, and we fell asleep. I still dreamt! The hour and a half I napped, I was dreaming! Damnit!

So last night, I go to bed at 11 and don't fall asleep until about 1:30. Thank God for Nick at Nite! I woke up this morning at 6:30 exhausted! I felt like I could sleep another days worth! I went to work and set up for the class I had to train.

The class was half-ass on the part of the company. No set guide, timeline or objectives. So I had to wing it!

I must say, I have to be one of the first trainers to start to fall asleep in their own class! I was sitting there while they were finishing an activity, and started doing the dozing head fall!

Needless to say, I let class out early!

Tonight...no naps, no dreams, and maybe some Tylenol PM!
