  I was tired on this run.  I went to the gym later than I usually do.  I wasn't into it.

I think the reasons for this were:

everyone in my house is sick

my 2 year old jumped out of his crib in the middle of the night (something he's never done--not the jumping out, but the waking in the middle of the night) and wandered into our room to "take a nap" as he said.  Then when I put him back in his crib, there he was, a few hours later, trying to crawl back into bed with us.  I gave up and had his feet in my back the rest of the night

the cardio room was exceedingly hot, like they still had the heat on or something

the weather is changing back to cold, yucky

It sounds like you had a rough night. I hate trying to sleep with a little kid in my bed. I'm heading to Utah in about a week and a half and will spend one night at my mom's house (the rest of it at my inlaws). My mom suggested that my daughter and I share a bed at her house and I suggested that I take the bed and my daughter sleep in a recliner. Maybe that's selfish of me, but my daughter will be fine in the recliner, and I'll sleep much better without her feet in my back.

I hope you get some decent sleep and get feeling better.
