I started this blog because I wanted some sort of journal. I knew this wasn’t going to be easy, but I thought I’d have something to say each day. It’s much harder than I thought. Finding the time to write, coming up with a topic to write about and actually sitting down to do it takes some effort.

Speaking of not having the time. It’s past bedtime for me. It’s Sunday night and I usually try to get to bed by 10:30 so that I can get up for a workout by 5:30am. Working out in the morning seems to work really well for me. Besides not getting enough sleeps, I don’t have many other excuses to throw out to skip a workout. If I wait until the end of the day, I have so many more reasons (kids need dinner, exhausted, homework time etc etc) to bag the workout.

Working out was never my “thing”. It was always a necessity. It still is a necessity, but it’s also become a part of me. Now, if I skip a morning workout, my whole day is off and I lament the fact that I just gave up and slept in. Knowing that the sleeping in wasn’t even quality sleep makes it worst. Now, if I slept in by mistake and was in a deep comatose type of sleep, that’s different.  But my day isn’t right without that morning workout and I will try really hard to have a workout later that day (not always successful).

Now it’s time to close up shop so I can start the week off right with a good dose of P90X and my buddy Tony to keep me company in the pre-dawn hours. G’night.
