I am ok. First night of sleep schedule and routine implementation. I hit about 50% of my plan, and trying to ignore the critical voice in my head that says I was ONLY 50%.
I was able to follow my routine but did it an hour later than planned. I used strategies- pjs and socks on as I read that keeping feet warm helps maintain sleep when body temp drops in the middle of the night. I was able to wake up at a decent hour and not go back to sleep.
Today, no naps so that I am tired earlier (maybe). Today, follow routine but an hour earlier. Today, go for a walk or to the gym but not too late in the day.
Gave myself a couple of small errands to get out of the house, a couple small chores at home, and a new project with no deadline since I tend to overdo projects and quit when I don't meet my self imposed deadline or criteria.
