Need a swift kick in the butt

Life is stressful right now with preparing to move to San Diego (finding a job & finding a home...things that are just a little bit important).  I feel like I'm handling it pretty well, other than I'm having a hard time wanting to get myself up in the morning.  I sleep really hard during the night, which is a good sign....but if anyone tries to wake me up before 7am, I am a cranky pants.   I was doing a great job a few weeks ago getting up early and getting my workout on early in the morning.  I really need to step it up and just get it done.  I think the whole getting up at 3am on Saturday really threw me off my groove.  Combine a sleepless weekend with someone who hates mornings....and you get a sleeping zombie--with messy hair--for the entire next week.
Another thing I'm going to work on this week is taking vitamins.  I think maybe my iron levels are low and maybe extra vitamins will help me feel less tired all the time.   Anyone notice a difference when you take vitamins?  My doctor has been hounding me for some time to take my vitamins.  I was doing so good for a while, and then once I ran out I didn't pick a new pack up.  That's going on my grocery list.  Along with food in general.  I don't have healthy food in the house.  Heck, I don't even have unhealthy food in the house.  It's been a long week with no food.
But, ultimately, I just need a swift kick in the butt.  I need harder workouts.  Not necessarily longer workouts, just harder ones.  And I really need to get a grip on my eating, get my vitamins in, and get some sleep!!!  I'm going to start incorporating more Insanity, P90X, and strength training into my workout schedules--since I don't have any races planned.
By the way...want to see some sweet running tan lines???
