23 - sleep sleep sleep

After two glorious days where I spent about 3 hours total on schoolwork, I got back into the homework grind yesterday. To say that I had zero motivation is a massive understatement. I had papers to write, reading to do, assistantship hours to chip away at and I wanted to do nothing but go back in time and re-live Thursday and Friday. I was tired, sore from my run and felt like I spent the entire day fighting with myself to take a nap. I took a break in the afternoon for a walk in the most amazing weather (I didn't even wear a sweater!) and then got back to work. I went to bed around 9pm, tried to do a little non-school reading, and was fast asleep by 9:23pm. I slept straight through the night until 6am. I even dreamed! A decent night's sleep does wonders for my disposition and my motivation. I've been working on my paper since 9am and feel like I am going to be able to get everything I need to do today done. I think I just really needed to re-charge and I am grateful that I got my change last night.
