My weekdays are pretty mundane so props to you if you make it through this whole post!
6:30 Alarm goes off. On a normal day my alarm goes off at 4:00 a.m. because I"m crazy and like to go to the gym in the morning. I wouldn't necessarily have to get up this early if I didn't live an hour away from work (by choice), but I'm so used to it now it is second nature. This morning was particularly nice because I spent the night at my parent's house last night which cut down my commute time to less than 15 minutes. Ahhhh-mazing. Downside of staying at their house last night? It was 91 degrees in May, and the air conditioner was broken. Go figure.
7:00 Decided against washing my hair this morning. Ponytail day it is! I decided my time would be better utilized making breakfast since I normally just have a protein bar after the gym on my drive to Topeka. Side note - If you haven't tried Quest bars, order them immediately. 20g of protein and SO delish!
7:15 I almost always get to work early (usually not quite this early), but I love that first 30 minutes when there aren't very many people there yet. I can get so much accomplished! There is nothing I enjoy more than checking things off my to-do list.
7:15ish to 12:00 Work. Meeting. Training. Squeeze in a few more minutes of work before my next meeting. Training. You get the picture. I'll spare you the details of what I do specifically, but just know that there is a lot of math and Excel involved, and I love it.

| Did I mention I get an absurd amount of free shoes?? It pays to wear the sample size :) |
1:00-5:00 We had a treat day for our manager's birthday today, and my self control was rock solid all morning, but it all went downhill after lunch. Basically the entire afternoon (when I wasn't working or in training) was spent going back and forth to the treat cube. Does everyone else have an absurd amount of treat days at work, or is it just a Payless thing?!? And I wonder why I can't lose any weight...

9:30 Time for some meaningful conversations with the roomies about our lives, work, being in our late 20's, boys...obviously. Really deep stuff ;)
10:26 Bedtime! Gotta be up at the crack of dawn for a work out since I ate crap all day and seriously slacked in the workout department. Good night world!
That's not boring. You are pretty darn active if your day starts at 4am. I am jealous of your early gym time AND your shoe collection. Visiting from blog everyday in may.
ReplyDeleteDang, girl! And I thought I got up early. I'm going to friend you on daily mile now, so get excited about that :)
ReplyDeleteJust confirmed you as a friend Amanda :)
ReplyDeleteThe broken AC might've been horrible considering it's the middle of summer and 90 degrees is the average temperature, but I am glad to hear that your day still went well. Have your parents repaired the broken AC by now? The weather isn't cooling soon, so I really hope they did.

Just think of how early you will be getting up and going to sleep when your Gaga's age;)
ReplyDelete“It was 91 degrees in May, and the air conditioner was broken. Go figure.” - This is a terrible scenario! I can see you're a very busy lady, but I suggest scheduling quarterly checkups for your HVAC units. I'm sure you never wanted to experience the hassle of a broken AC. Hehe! Months passed already and I hope your AC is already repaired. Or replaced if it was beyond repair.

Luckily I was at my parent's house so I only had to suffer through the heat one night before returning to my nice, cool house where the air conditioner was working :)
