My morning routine has become such a routine it's laughable. This morning I almost switched it up accidentally but my mind just wouldn't let me do it. I thought, no, no I have to go to the bathroom. But I MUST make the coffee first otherwise my whole entire routine will be a disaster and somewhere I'll end up waiting for the coffee to be finished and that's just no fun. The way I have it now, the coffee is always done by the time the routine is finished.
I wake up to the cats. This morning was particularly funny because myself and the boy woke up to sid sitting on my chest just meowing in my face. At first the boy thought I was annoyed so he offered up a teddy bear to throw at him but I turned him down. Good thing because karma hit the kitty. One of my pillows was half on/half off the bed and well, he took a wrong step and spilled onto the floor. The boy and I had a good laugh, teased them for a little bit while still cozied under the blankets and then eventually I got up.
That's when I flip on the computer on the way to the kitchen...praying that I turned the sound down the nite before so that when windows does it's little soundy thingy it doesn't bother the boy. I forgot to turn the sound down last nite. Oh well. Then I throw on a sweatshirt and my slippers and shuffle into the kitchen where I make my coffee. That's where I struggled this morning, but in the end I made the coffee. All of this to the sounds of the kittens yelling at me. They're getting used to my routine too and get a head start on the bathroom this morning. That's what I do next, bathroom and brush the teeth. And yes, the kitties join me.
Then I return to the kitchen to feed the whiners. Always hoping that the boy left me enough food in the can from their late nite snack the nite before. This morning there was plenty but often Im left with a bite or two of food that I have to use and then open a new can. This can really ruin a girls morning.
As soon as the kitties are fed, the coffee should be just about done. I prep my cup with sugar and 1/2 & 1/2 and pour in the coffee. I test it and put in sugar until it's to my liking. Then I bring it back to the computer, set it on my coffee warmer and flip on my browser, searching for some early morning inspiration to type away in my blog.
This morning, this is what you get.
