Mission: To be in bed before 10:00

Timer set so I only have 3 minutes to write this blog. Ah! But seriously, I find myself doing so many last minute things that we get lights out later and later, and even if what we’re doing is fun, sleep is useful. I think part of my lack of concentration today was simply I’m tired. So to my list of other healthy habits let me add adequate sleep.

I have now completely lost my train of thought and that’s pretty much what I was doing all day. Wait, I remember, I don’t usually make New Year’s Resolutions. They seem made to be broken, but . . . I’ve already started exercising regularly. I’m eating healthier. The usual things people resolve to do are checked off. The only two things left are more sleep and learning to balance play with work. This is my second year in a row with squirrel as my first animal of the year, so I think the thing I was worst at was balancing play and work. So, I will endeavor to get more rest this year, and to play more while still maintaining my usual work load. Now that sounds like mission impossible. But if it was easy I wouldn’t need to be resolved to accomplish it. It seems terribly me that I use my New Year’s Resolution to play more, and get more sleep. They seem almost mutually exclusive, don’t they?

Ah, my timer went off. Must get off computer and start for bed, my first night of resolutions await.
