Default Back after 3 days

I got up at 5:15am today after 3 days of sleeping in until 7. My son's and mine schedule got a little messed up by him being sick, but now we are back to normal again. Coping with sleepiness was a little harder this morning than when I do it for a solid week, but doable, and I felt so happy to be up early again. I finally figured out why I like getting up early. It makes me feel optimistic!! Also, my yoga and meditation routine relies on being up early, otherwise, it's more difficult, if not impossible, to get them done.

So far this challenge went mostly well, with some unexpected bumps along the way. I really hope to get going for at least a couple more weeks and then decide if I want to keep getting up at 5 or I want to get up even earlier or maybe go back to getting up at 6, since it seemed to flow more smoothly and naturally.
