Getting lazy again (read... getting FLABBY again...)

Whenever I get into a new routine it takes me a while to truly get the swing of things. This new job could potentially be disastrous for my lifestyle because I'll have differing shifts every day. I'm actually hoping that I will now be schedule regularly from 12-9 as opposed to different hours each and every day! That will be so hard to manage with my sleep cycle and work out routine and life in general. Sigh, the things we do for ___ fill in the blank. In this case, free tuition. 

I have been skipping any form of nap since I don't typically get home until 5:15. It's straight to dinner preparation and then working on whatever homework I have for my training. Yes, we have homework. And I study my materials for our quizzes the next morning also, even though it's open resources. It's easier when you know the answer first and then double check it later. I haven't been doing my exercise routine and am hesitant about our gym memberships now. I don't know when I'd have the time to do it! I'm waking up at 5:45 right now so getting up earlier and going (my usual gym cycle is about 2 hours) is out of the question. I could try to go right after work, but I am usually famished by then and I have had a horrible headache from working on a computer screen and information overload the past three days. Hopefully that aspect of the job will die down once I get the hang of things. I'm just not so sure how exercise will start to fit into my routine! I need to get it in there though, I don't want to get all flabby Becca! We finally opened the scale my parents bought us. Yeah, I'm not doing terribly, but I have a goal weight set. I can't get to that goal weight unless I stop eating or start finding time to exercise. 

Life is just so complicated sometimes. I tell ya! One good thing, Emily has been doing well with this new transition. Yes, I was that worried about my kitten! She is very needy and doesn't like being alone in the house. She usually greets me at the door when I come home anyways, but now she is pressing herself against the door and getting up on her front paws so she's all standing against the door when I open it! Adorable, but also kind of sad. She craves attention. I wish I could give her more. I wish I could stay home all day with her like in the summertime. That won't be happening anymore for the next 3 years. Sigh. And then a baby will come along. I hope she gets along with a baby. And hopefully a baby will come along even sooner than that! Let's keep our fingers crossed! 

Well, I'm about to hop in bed before 9:30. I still need to do my devos. This is so early. Waking up at 5:45 is no picnic though. So I need a good night's rest. I'm really a wimp about my sleep. Last year I was spoiled. Waking up at 7:00 or 6:15, coming home around noon. Taking a 1-3 hour nap depending. Going to job number 2 for a couple hours. Coming home again. Going to bed between 10-12. It was a nice existence! Too bad that doesn't pay like this new job and cover m me and my spouse's tuition. Sigh. Life. I tell ya! 

Good night.
