Needing a "Do-Over"

I had kind of a weird day today. First of all....I didn't get my sleep last night.
Don was up and around organizing his vitamins and then reading with the light on after I had fallen asleep and accidentally woke me up. I couldn't get back to sleep until 3 AM. I had to get up at 7, so I only got four hours of sleep. I tried to nap when Conner did, but I don't sleep well when I know he is here....I put him in his little bouncy seat next to me on the couch, but I only dozed. But I didn't study my Bible or exercise like I needed to while he was sleeping. I had planned on going to water aerobics tonight, because other plans we had were cancelled due to the snow. But I fell asleep after Cameron picked up Conner (I usually drop him off, but her car is better in the snow.) I woke up when Don came downstairs and said he wanted to make it up to me for waking me up last night by taking me out for dinner. I didn't get a salad, but I didn't get anything awful for me. I got a breakfast supper with whole wheat pancakes. But that put me over, because I ate the lunch my son packed today but forgot to bring, which was a sandwich with tortilla chips. So my calories were up, and my exercise was down....all due to a mess up in my schedule.
My plan is to do my Bible study now and do some stretches before I go to bed. If I do aerobics now, I won't sleep again, and the whole process will start over again. So, I'm going to consider today a lesson learned.....don't let anything deter me from getting my sleep, AND as sweet as the intention was, taking me out for dinner is not a good way to make up for my lack of sleep! Tomorrow is a new day....
