Bleh. failures.

I am still getting used to this new job and although I know it's not a proper excuse, it's not helping for sure. A wife, 4 kids, and a job that's a long way away isn't a good way to keep up a fitness plan.

For some reason I am needing a lot more sleep lately. Like, a couple hours' more, which isn't good. I am getting up lately at 7, where previously I would get up at 5. That really cuts out my mornings, as I have to be ready to be picked up by the carpool at 7 45.

I get home at 5 30. And my wife is not the food preparer in the family. So when I get home I have to cook. scratch freedom till about 7 pm

I put the youngest to bed at 8. So, I have about an hour to myself, and I haven't been able to rationalize that hour to being fitness time yet. How do people do that? I need to figure it out.

Oh also - this is short term but will be replaced with other things - swim and dive meets. they take all night tuesdays and thursdays. They will be replaced by my daughter's ballet in the fall, to the tune of 4 days a week.we do not have to stay for those, though.

I need advice! Anyone reading this - maybe it's stupidly simple and I am just missing it.
