My Schedule Is Gone
Starting a new job is rough. I have different hours than I'm used to and my schedule for the last two weeks has been completely shot.
I had been on at 8-4 schedule. I would go to work, go straight to the gym, come home and make dinner and be relaxing on the couch by 7:30 at the latest. But now? This whole 9-5 thing is killing me. I have yet to figure out the best time to go to the gym- and I really need to be more than a weekend gym goer. Unfortunately the class options I now have are 5:45 am or 5:45 pm. Which means dragging my ass out of bed super early (and there is very little I hate as much as I hate mornings) or going straight after work and not getting home until almost 7:00. Which means that dinner doesn't happen until 7:30 or 8.
I know, I know. I could just go and do my thing at a different time of the day. But I have realized that without a group fitness class, I just slack off. I never push it to my max.
My blogging has also taken a bit of a back seat. I had a great routine before- writing posts and scheduling tweets in the evening, reading and commenting in the morning, replying to comments all day. Now?? I feel like I haven't even had a chance to read my favorite blogs at all over the past two weeks and it's making me sad. I've been getting home later and doing everything else later, so by the time I sit down on the couch, all I want to do is enjoy my glass of wine and catch up on my ridiculously long Hulu queue.
Oh and don't forget about that little thing called a new house. We have a few weeks of overlap on our house and our apartment, and the plan was to pack and take boxes to the house every day so that when we were ready to move all our furniture- everything would be in the house already. Well....that's not happening. We have had possession of the house for over a week and have only moved 4-5 boxes over there. The apartment is still fully lived in. And I'm procrastinating. And even though I know I'm doing it? I'm still doing it. The worst.
My schedule is shot. I've been slacking in the gym department, in blogging and in moving. These are all things I enjoy- so whyyy can't I just get my butt in gear?
