August Musings
Two hundred forty-three consecutive sunrises. Or more simply, eight months.
The first sunrise of August was at 6:30. This morning, the sun rose at 7:08. By the time I got to Babycakes to write this it was already 7:40. I almost can’t fathom it and where this project has come, and by project I mean life.
On the most rushed days of this project, I’m out the door fifteen minutes before sunrise. With that in mind, April 8 is the last time I was out the door after 7AM, 146 days ago. The last time I set an alarm after 7AM was probably about March 31, 154 days ago.
Others may certainly read this and think, “So what?” Which is entirely fair. But for me, this is a first. Even during times where I was more of a morning person, or during high school when I had to get up early, there were weekends where I would certainly sleep in.
What more could one do daily over the course of eight months? Mostly I need to get more exercise and eat more vegeteables.
I’m excited. I feel accomplished. But I have four months to go to complete this goal. Sunrises being after 7AM is just a small milestone.
