quiet time ahead

My mom went to visit with my sister so I'm going to stay with my Dad. I'm looking very forward to the visit and time away. It's only one night but I cherish ALL the quiet time I can get LOL. I'm going to take the time to really look at my routine and revise it any way that needs changing. I was thinking yesterday about trying my early morn practice again ..... this means getting up at 530-545. (I usually get up at 615-630) I used to do this and practiced everyday 6 days a week. That was before my hip started to fail in November and needed another surgery in January. So I went about 5 months with out being to able to do very much of anything let alone my yoga and vigorous exercise. I've found after my last surgery I needed SLEEP. My body lost a lot of blood and they were going to do a transfusion but opted not to due to my age and ability to rebuild on my own. I go in for weekly iron injections to help and though dont feel tired IF I get sleep I'm finding that my body still needs a lot of rest. Long story short.... that extra half hour or hour is cherished!!! I just cant do it with out forcing myself up yet. When I get up I like it be natural and refreshing, to let my body just get up when it wants to and for me right now that seems to be about 630 .... not 530. That leaves practice during nap time..... great option but then thats right after lunch and hard not to feel heavy in the hot room after eating. Thats what Ive been doing so far and have found it not too bad most of the time. I eat a very light lunch just after 12.00 put Kaylee down for her nap at 1:00 walk on the treadmill and let the sauna heat up and hit the hot room at 145 or so. If my lunch agrees with me this works well but I have had a few times in class where I just felt ........ heavy and digesting LOL

Yesterday went very well though I felt awesome. I did my elliptical in the morning for one hour bringing my heart rate up to the high 160's and back down to the low 150's with interval training. I did my yoga class in the sauna while Kaylee was napping and had a great class. The conditions were perfect and all was good. I came out and recovered well feeling full of gusto and energized. Any way I will keep playing and thinking and let you know what I come up with. I would ideally like to get up and do it but.... as I said have not been able to bring myself to set the alarm yet and I have one I need to be out of the sauna for before she gets up (around 8:00)
