yay got up and got something done

I went to bed around 10 last night.  Not as early as I had been hitting the hay but still a good attempt at sleep.  I have been enjoying the going to bed early and getting up early.  It feels like I have accomplished something without really trying.  Perhaps even more so since I struggle with sleep. 
So the alarm went off at 5 something this morning.  I was shocked.  I thought it was Saturday and couldnt remember why I turned on my alarm.  It took some time to realise it was only Thursday.  And then started the mind game - get up get up get up... you have an agenda for the morning...  It didnt take too long and I did get up. 
Donned the usual - tank top, track pants, heart rate monitor, foot pod, smart watch (that's what I've started calling it), headset, blackberry, pandora...  and off I went....
It was a nice morning.  Those are the things I need to remember.  The low light, the cooler temp, the quiet.  The hill on the back side of JKs house is always the tough spot - still warming up, legs still waking up, warming up....  but got up and back down around the neighborhood.  It felt good. 
30 minutes later I am home with a cup of coffee - my first since Saturday - so that tasted pretty darned good too.
NOW to do it all over again tomorrow.

oh and this evening is supposed to include a bike ride
