It’s just after 3am on a Friday morning and I’ve been up for hours.
My mind and my body were yelling a wake-up call at me, and I had to answer.
My head won’t let me sleep because my thoughts are racing since I haven’t given myself an outlet to write about them. I’m still doing the Bullet Journal thing, which is GREAT for the day-to-day to-do’s and calendar planning, as well as tracking ideas as they come up. But, I have been horrible with routine planning and journaling.
My body won’t let me sleep because my schedule has been all over the place, my skin is itching like crazy because I haven’t taken my daily allergy pill or figured out the trigger, and I’m uncomfortable and puffy from eating junk and not drinking enough water.
I could have pushed through the unease and gone back to bed, albeit fitfully. But I can’t do that anymore.
So I’m getting up, showering to relieve my skin, taking my medicine, writing this, and getting back on track with things.
Time to go back to living mindfully.
