Monday morning and the alarm goes off at 4.45am... I have managed to squeeze in a whole extra 15 mins of semi-sleep by getting even more morning things organised at night... so I treat 4.45am as a sleep in... ahhh yeah I know pathetic, but true... another night spent tossing and counting the wake times till my 4.45am sleep in...
Still I leapt.. oh ok.. Fell out of bed with enthusiasm.. oh ok.. I just fell... but I knew I would feel crappy if I didn't join Julie at the gym... so I headed with gusto.. oh ok.. I slithered up the hall bleary eyed and into the kitchen, to be greeted by the morning "slobber of love" ritual from Tank and Morgan... This ritual consists of Tank throwing himself open mouthed at me and grabbing my arm and dragging me with love in his eyes towards the fridge, while at the same time Morgan pokes the back of my knees with her freezing cold and wet nose continuously to help me reach the fridge even faster... the ritual only ends when Smacko's have been deposited into mouths and the back door is opened so that the fur kids can bound out, still chewing their treats, and enjoy their morning visit to appropriate bushes and lawn patches... There they stay till I remake their beds and take my morning pre-cadio potion...
After cardio I always feel alive and invigorated... really.. usually soggy as well... I then proceed to inhale my breakfast.... get ready for work, then head of for my day....
Once I head home again the ritual "slobber of love" awaits me at the door always accompanied by the "Pokes of Notice me"... no treats at this time but Tank does love to add a quick recital of squeaky beer can concerto #6.. Morgan is not blessed with Tanks musical talent.. but she always smiles by drawing back her lips in a semi snarl when he plays his music.. well we tell Tank it is a smile... personally I think that since she has hearing 10,0000 times better than ours it is more than likely her smile is a grimace of pain...
Weight training is always after work and tonight it was Bicep/Tricep/Abs... hell I love weight training.. LOVE IT!!! hmm did I mention that I LOVE it... yeah probably...
So really it was just another normal Monday... NOT!!
I found out that I will finally get to meet Jo Stewart in the real world in Melbourne in March which has totally made my day.. no.. week.. no.. month!!! Since without her this journey of mine would never have happened and I would still be 85kg and miserable... I can't wait!!!
I also found out that the light at the end of my tunnel is starting to shine and something that I have dreamed of does exist and is not that far out of reach anymore... Damn fabulous Monday it turned out to be... now roll on Tuesday!!!.
