Do I Get Enough Sleep?
I woke up today feeling pretty good. Rested. I rarely feel rested and I just have to wonder if I get enough sleep. I know that I like to sleep nine hours a night or so… and usually I don’t get that much. Yesterday ended up being a rest day again. I had a couple of things planned and both fell through so I was able to sit home on the couch and rest, nap, and go to bed early.
I got up at 9am yesterday. I napped between about 11 and 1pm, and I went to bed at 9:30pm. I got up this morning at 7am on my own, feeling refreshed and good. Usually I have to drag myself out of bed because I’m still so darn tired it’s hard to get up.
I also ate good yesterday, following the Eat to Live plan.. I ate a lot of veggies, lettuce, green beans, cauliflower, sweet potatoes (good ones!) and fruit. So maybe that also helped. I really do want to keep a lot of when I feel good in the mornings so that I can know what it is that makes me feel good, and repeat it all the time! I so much prefer feeling good and refreshed than feeling like I was dragged through a mud puddle!
Today I’m off to do some agility practice with Chase and Tatum and I feel good about doing it! I have got to figure out what makes me feel good and refreshed!
