So Busy Working That It Doesn't Feel Like Living

Today was a strange day. I woke up to birds chirping at around 7:30am. Ready to take on the day, I cooked an egg scramble (1 medium egg, 1/4 cup of egg whites, baby Bellas, tomatoes, onions and scallions) and ate it with brown rice. 

After the meal, I felt extremely fatigued but pushed on and took a shower.  Even after that, I felt super lethargic! So eventually, I gathered that it must be my body telling me to rest. So around 11:30am, I told myself to take a short siesta before carrying on with my day. To my surprise, I woke up 4 hours later! Realizing that I had work in an hour, I had to hustle and get ready! Frantically, I made it to work with a coffee in my hand with one minute to spare. I figured I could eat at work but work was super busy too! I had some BBQ albacore ready to devour, but couldn't even get into it until 6 hours later.

Now, I'm in my bed, my face washed and teeth brushed, ready for some well-deserved slumber. Was today productive? Certainly not. But, I knew that I needed the rest. Weight-lifting is still such an enigma to me, and so, instead of giving myself a hard time for not being perfect, I'm going to be proud that I acknowledged my body's need for rest. Rome wasn't built in a day and a tree does not sprout overnight. It takes time. Good night, all.
