Now, I have heard tales of the early morning productivity wonderfulness from several sources, including these crazy two who get up in the 4 o'clock hour everyday. But after living that life through high school with swimming two-a-days and soccer, and then for a short stint in college while rowing crew, I have opted not to, unless extremely necessary, during my adult life.
However, after my amazing morning today, I might be a convert. The run, five-ish mile in total, was wonderful, cool temperatures and fast. I actually didn't listen to music {not the norm for me} because it was still a little dark when I headed out and I always want to be aware of any 'stranger danger' going on.
The weekend is so near I can taste it. I'll actually be tasting fluoride first with a trip to the dentist before hopping on a plane to Chicago to celebrate my little brother's high school graduation. Oh Bufante, how can you be graduating high school? You are just a baby!
Now a little tribute to Bufante, because what kind of sistoid would I be if I didn't participate in some good old fashioned embarrassment?

Congratulations Bufante! You are an amazing young man and I can't wait to celebrate with you this weekend. Love, love, love you. Mwa, Uhh :)

* What are your plans for Memorial Day?? Family, fun, BBQ?


I'm am such a bad morning person - but I couldn't agree with you more, when I wake up early out of force, I always love seeing the sun rise and getting so much done before the day even starts!

I love early mornings, but apparently I just can't get my sorry self into bed early enough. We usually crash around 11:30ish, and 5:45 is as early as we can drag ourselves out of bed. We tried getting up at 4:30 for a week (We were planning on walking the dogs) but...yeah. We failed. Kudos to you!!
ReplyDeleteI am impressed that you can go to bed at 8:15!
ReplyDeleteWe are now mortal enemies..Im coming to Boston for the Stanely cup finals!!! Cheering for Vancouver though, can you give me any advice of what I should do?? eat?
It is a rare thing for sure, but yes, I love how productive the morning hours can be!
ReplyDeletePaws - I love giving unsolicited advice about the city I love{even if you are cheering for the other team!}, so you made my day by actually asking. I'll shoot you an email and hook you up with some sweet spots!
