Terrific Tuesday!

I hope everyone's week is off to as good of a start as mine!

My alarm was bumped up 15 more minutes this week, as per my new sleep resolution, so wake-ups are coming at 6:15 now. Still not too bad - I have time now to run to the YMCA in the mornings and get a quick 30 minute cardio session in. Not the worlds most thorough workout, but better than nothing, right?

Yesterday I ran for 30 minutes doing intervals - 2 minutes at a strong pace, 2 minutes at an uncomfortable pace, 1 minute walking. All at a 1% incline - I read once that it helps simulate outdoor running better.

This morning I just did 30 minutes on the elliptical, high intensity, high incline. Boring, but effective.

I'm still doing no-screen-time after 9 PM (and aiming for a 10 PM bedtime... I'm a Granny), and it's going well! I even pulled it off on Sunday with the Super Bowl. I really feel like I sleep better. Getting my bags packed, lunch put together, my pent up feelings journaled, and some pleasure reading in -- I go to bed with far less on my mind than I usually do.

I had a wildly productive day yesterday and ended the day with Moe's Monday with Bonnie and Em and grocery shopping. (We always meal plan as a group and head out buying the bare minimum - no useless snacks lying around, no food going bad, no need to munch when we're bored! Emily is also a coupon-er, which helps us save even more money.)

Leftovers = instant lunch the next day!

I have a crazy week ahead of me, but I'm trying to find time to get to my parents house and see this doll baby:

My parents got a Border Collie - Maggie May - and she is so cute. I just want to play with her all the time! It makes me antsy to get married and adopt a dog with Logan :)

I hope everyone has a good rest of the day! Sorry there isn't much exciting going on - soon - I promise!
