It's Not July 32nd ...

It's August 1.  I would wax poetic about it, but even I'm tired of reading about the "new month/new start" propaganda.  It's also the first day of school here, so I kinda miss having the fresh new classroom feeling where you have all kinds of great expectations for the new school year.  There's a lot of stuff going on and a lot of stuff planned and a lot of stuff that's got to get done which is sort of making my brain get all twitchy.

So, I sorta liked this graphic.  I get it, too ...

I Get It

Yes, I have lots of things to do. 
Yes, I am behind on my previous list of things I needed to do.
Yes, with every thing that I have to do comes a list of addendum things that need to be done. 

No wonder I totally get this cartoon.

Projects

Apparently I have a lot of them on the burner. Maybe I should make a list.  And then prioritize the list.  And then get started on the first thing.

I love a plan.  Or at least making one ...

Sleepless In Nashville

My intention last night was to go to bed by 10pm, fall asleep, and wake at 4:30am for our scheduled 12-mile training walk (yes, I planned to walk 12 miles after having a stomach catastrophe a few days prior).  Unfortunately, Insomnia decided to pay me a visit, and after getting out of bed and relocating to the den, watching tv, getting on the computer, and reading a magazine, I finally convinced the derelict to leave and let me sleep around 2am.  If you do the math, I got a few hours sleep before meeting the team at 5:15 and starting out.

Due to my recent sickness, I decided that I would cut short my planned miles, and ended up doing only 9.  But at least I got some in.  This morning's weather was perfect, which helped after last week's sun-hot temps.

Anyhow, I've put Insomnia on notice that I am not interested in entertaining him tonight.  Here's hoping that I fall asleep tonight and catch up on last night's robbed sleep.
