Get up when my alarm goes off

If I could only do this one thing, so many other goals would fall into place. If I could get up early enough, I would have enough time to do the daily organizing/cleaning in my morning routine, and I’d have enough time to do a little exercise.

So starting Jan. 2, I’m waking up at 7:00 until vacation is over the following Monday at which time I’ll be waking up at 6:00. I’ve tried waking up before then and it’s just too early for me right now.

I’ve done a good job of getting up by 7:00 almost every day of spring break. Now that I’m heading back to work I need to get up even earlier. I’m going to shoot for 5:45 so that I can see about fitting in a little extra exercise time.

I made this a challenge this week, otherwise I would never have got out of bed at all. Daylight Savings Time has whopped me upside the head and left me down for the count.

I’m going to keep this challenged for at least another week. I got up with my alarm for one week, but I don’t think it’s quite a habit yet. There were a couple of days where it was tough.

I will be getting up every day at 6:00 during the week and 7:00 on the weekends. I’m hoping that I can train my body to get up at earlier on its own.
