Sleep

For the past few weeks I've been waking up at 4:40 am every stinking morning.  Then Jared gets up at 6:00.  Then I'm up at 6:45.  But because I'm waking up at 4:40, I start thinking about the next few hours and then I can't go back to sleep.  AUGH!!!  It's a horrible cycle.

But I think I found my solution.  Last night I went to be about 10:45 pm.  Not exactly, but I know it was before 11:00.  I slept straight through.

I woke up to Jared's alarm, but was able to go back to sleep.  This morning I felt amazing!  Totally rested.  Ready to conquer the day.  On top of my eating.  Actually wanted to exercise.  Everything!  There is more to healthy living than just eating right and exercising enough.  You have to sleep right too!  When you're rested you make better decisions and you're just naturally a nicer person.

Doctrine and Covenants 88:124 "...Retire to thy bed early, that ye may not be weary; arise early, that your bodies and your minds may be invigorated."
