Yes, that's Latin. It means "Get back up." Life is gonna knock you down. It's knocked me down more times than most. But the number of times it knocks you down doesn't matter. As long as you get back up.

The Flipping of The Switch
I did a two-a-day today, sort of. It was after midnight when I did my second workout of the day, but technically, tomorrow is a day off, but Energy 2.0 has been logged as of 2:20am. Having explained that brings me to the title of this blog.
At some point today, a switch flipped in my brain. See, one of the reasons I started this blog, and really, even way back when we I signed up for DDPYoga Now™, because I needed a reason to exercise. When it was just the app, it was "Well, I'm paying for the app, I should probably do what it says," and for the most part, that kept me exercising, most of the time. Now that I have this accountability blog, and there are like 6 or so people who read it on a regular basis, first of all, I write a whole hell of a lot more, and I don't dare miss a workout for fear of embarrassment. Well, this afternoon, a couple of hours after I'd done Chair Warrior with Jake The Snake, I said to myself "Well, since I need to stay up tonight so I can sleep through dialysis, I might as well do another workout tonight.
And after I made that decision, I realized I was looking forward to it.
The switch has flipped. I'm no longer doing DDPY because I feel I have to. No one would have noticed if I didn't do Fat Burner 2.0. I did it because I enjoy being on the mat. I like exercising. It makes me feel good. Even more, it makes me feel better.
I haven't decided yet, but I may still do yet another workout in the morning before I leave for dialysis, even if it just Wake Up 2.0 or Wake Up Classic.
Decisions decisions decisions...
Update: 7:05am
I did Wake Up 2.0. Bang.
