Morning:

  • 5am: wake up in my gym clothes
  • 5:05: drink my pre-workout and scroll for a minute
  • 5:15: sit down to put shoes on. Cat gets on my lap

This is where morning turns into a choose your own adventure game!

  • 5:15: sat cat on floor and go to the gym
  • 5:30: weight training
  • 7:00: shower
  • 7:20: breakfast
  • 8:00: work

OR

  • 5:15: give kitty five minutes, she deserves it
  • 5:30: realize I'm running late but now I'm in the middle of some stupid task on my phone
  • 6:00: I'm not going to get a full workout in anyway, I'm just going to eat breakfast now and go to the gym after work
  • 7:30: time to go to work! oh no I'm still in my gym clothes
  • 7:40: time to go to work!
  • 7:50: oh god I forgot about the school zone
  • 8:05: I want to die and take everyone on this highway with me

Night

  • what the fuck
  • uhhhhh
  • somehow falls asleep two hours later than planned in a spot other than my bed

But if you tell people "I wake up at 5am to work out", they automatically assume you have your shit together. 😎

I love how your last sentence was my exact reaction to your first sentence lmao

I have the aesthetics of someone with their shit together!

I felt like I had it together when I was getting up early, I totally get doing that. Now with a child, I just want to ζŠ₯ε€η†¬ε€œ (night time revenge) every night so I don’t get to bed until around 1am.
