make myself get out of bed earlier in the mornings

I don’t get up really early, but I do consistently get up earlier.

Not so sure this early start will last. At the moment I have to do it so I can feed a lamb. Most times after I feed it I crawl back into bed for another hour or so.

But still hopeful.

Realistically, I probably won’t do this unless and until I have to do it, for a job. Might as well enjoy the few hours I have in the morning to sleep late and without the Big Bed Hog in the bed with me. :)

is that I don’t actually want to get up earlier. I like to sleep. I like to sleep late. I would rather stay up later and sleep later, but in general, I also do better when I get more than eight hours of sleep. Sad, but true.

However, since being in Texas, I do have to get up earlier than I would have in Florida, simply because my soap is on two hours earlier instead of just one hour earlier. :)

Still, I do need to figure out a way to change my view of mornings so that I can get up earlier.

Maybe. :)

I have improved a little – but not enough to really make me feel proud of myself for this goal.

about 45 minutes earlier than usual this morning.

I need to get better with this, but I am just so tired all the time . . . plus, I kind of like to sleep, so that doesn’t help matters. :)

both yesterday and today. I still feel so exhausted, but maybe I’ll start to feel better once I get used to doing it. I am better without the gabapentin, though, so that’s good. Well, less tired anyhow . . . I am definitely in pain again without it.

the gabapentin, since it just wipes me out, plus makes my hands swell. So, we’ll see if I can start getting up earlier once I am feeling better.

I am just so tired . . . geez.
