I had a 10:30pm client....I end up leaving about Midnight. Knowing one of my clients had earlier asked me to reschedule her session to 7:30am the next morning. Knowing I would need to set my alarm for about 5:30/6am, I knew I wouldn't get much sleep. MAYBE 5 hours by the time I got home and into bed. I tried even that deep sleep meditative stuff....I laid there TRYING to fall asleep. Or go to the bathroom. UGH. Alarm goes off and I manage to wrench myself out of bed. I begrudgingly get ready. Begrudginly because I'm exhausted. I am happy and thankful to have clients and looking forward to hopefully getting another. However, as I'm walking to the door, my phone rings. That 7:30am client has a fever. :[ I tell her I hope she feels better soon, I'll cover the 24hour charge....and crawl back into bed for 45mins. Wrench myself back up to get to work for my 8:30am. 2 blocks from work my staff notifies me that my appointment had received a call and had to leave. So, there I am. Finally a client at 9:30am, I could've slept 2 more hours, in other words a whole night's sleep. Hey, shit happens. Regardless, I have a job to do. As tired as I am, I slap on a smile, load up some caffeine and make sure my clients I know I am happy to see them and give them the best I got. I gave up on my nap and ran errands. Another 5:30am - 11:30pm day tomorrow. Maybe a midday nap....I'll need it.
DON"T STAND UP YOUR TRAINER. :P
