I’ve gotten lazy since my vacation back to NY at the end of May. I haven’t kept up with my yoga and I haven’t been exercising. I’m getting lazy that’s for sure. True, I’ve done some gardening work, but that is pretty much done at this point. Even simple thing get me winded. I need to get MOVING.

Part of the problem is that I had been getting up at 5:30 to exercise and I’m finding getting rest and sleep is far more important to me and will continue to be so in the coming months as catalog season kicks into high gear at work.

The trade-off: lose sleep to get up early to exercise and get healthier, or get more rest so I feel better and don’t exercise and not get healthier. I’m really torn. I love my sleep yet I know I must improve my health. Working out in the middle of the day doesn’t appeal to me because it DOES tire me out. I may try working out at 7:00 in the evening. I read if you work out in the evening, do it three hours before you intend to sleep. That might be my best option….if I’m not too tired.
