Now add 5 minutes and you have the time at which my alarm clock has been going off the past 2 weeks each morning.....yes, I said morning! Now, for those of you who know me then you know how much I value sleep. As in maybe my favorite thing EVER. So, why is this happening???
Well, I have become slightly addicted to running(ALSO A HOLY COW MOMENT FOR THOSE OF YOU WHO KNOW ME!) at the gym. However, it is really hard to actually make it to the gym in the afternoons or evenings with 4 kids and 1 hubs. Spending time refereeing fighting after school and plastered to the couch after the kids go to bed is so much more appealing! So, bright and early it is.
And, another thing that I thought would never pass my lips.....it is actually really nice to get up and moving, showered and ready and done with half my list by 9:30 am. Who knew???
I hope that soon I can get used to being a bit tired...maybe I should be better about going to bed earlier as well! So, when you see me and I look like a zombie or slur my words, rest assured that it is the lack of sleep talking, I have not taken up afternoon cocktails!

I still haven't recovered from the shock of this news last week. I'm REELING I tell you. If you start enjoying running that means I am officially the last person on earth to LOATHE it.
But, I can't help but be impressed. We are sleepy kindred souls and I know what it means for you to see those numbers consciously!
Good for you!!! I value my sleep too much so I give up my mornings or evenings. It is nice to get up early and be able to have a productive day before the kids are up. Keep it up Andrea!
I doubt we will notice your droopy eyes or slurred speech. We will be in AWE at your beautiful BOD!!!! There was a day that I did the same. I think I need to find that drive again, as I have been unsuccessful at exercise for years now. You are an inspiration!!!
Awesome! I plan to get into running in about a year and a half, or so. I'll have to come to you and Mel for some tips. :)
