Ever since I started working for a school district, my lifestyle has drastically changed. No more early morning commutes at 6:45 in the morning for my first appointment at 8:00. No more late nights at the clinic and a lonely, hungry drive home at 7:00. Now I roll out of bed at 7:00, walk the dog, get ready for work, get out the door by 7:50 and start at 8:00. I finish no later than 3:30 and get home before the sun even thinks about going to sleep.

…

Well, this morning I decided to be a little more industrious. I woke up at about 6:30, got dressed, went for a 30-minute run, walked the dog, made the coffee, showered, and got to work by 8:15. I even stayed in my office all day and ACTUALLY WORKED until 5:00 pm! What?! I didn’t even get my laptop out to chat-it-up with people. What is going on!? I’m not quite sure. All I know is that I got a crap-load of stuff done and still had enough energy when I got home to wash a sinkful of dishes.

Don’t worry, this won’t last. I already slacked on my potential 2nd run of the day and had Jes run by himself. Now I’m sitting on the couch with my trusty laptop, watching the Tour de France, and waiting for Jesse to make my dinner. Ah, that’s better.
