Dear reader world,
It has been the most hectic month of my life. The funny thing is it's not all related to work. Work was hectic as well, but I was really sick, per usual, with a double ear infection and strep which knocked me out for a full ten days and to add insult to injury, I messed up my knee. Then to kick that off, I was on call twice. The second time really killed me. I dealt with a situation that required me to be awake from midnight from 5 am. And anyone who knows me, knows that I go to sleep early and value my sleep. This past incident really threw my whole body/sleep cycle out of whack. Last night was my first real night of good sleep, and I woke up naturally at 6:30. That's a start!
I know I preach about moving and being active and being in touch with your body, but sometimes it's just not possible. Listening to your body is the most important thing. There was one weekend, I didn't leave my couch and slept as much as I could to try and rid my body of the illness. Listening to our inner self is so important. If I had kept going and not called the doctor (thanks babe for the encouragement) I'd probably still be sick.
I've missed my friends at Barre and I know I'll be back, it's just a matter of when. It's really hard when you have a routine then the routine goes to sh*t because of illness. Getting back is going to take work. But, at least my eating hasn't really gone to hell, too.
