Your Morning Ritual

[boxtops]

My turn to crib an idea from mrs-O, but what do you actually do every morning?

Mine is (every day)

Wake up (beat alarm clock if ringing on a work day)
move cat from legs
put specs on
get out of bed
look out of the window
Go downstairs to the bathroom, avoiding cats
Have a wee
Go further downstairs, prepare cats' medication, feed cats (to shut them up)
Go back up to bathroom, wash, clean teeth

after that is ad hoc, depending on what day it is.

What about you?

Daily, down to kitchen/utility level, lets dogs out for a pee then feed them, grab a quick coffee while they're eating, go for walkies for about an hour, if it's a work day for OH she uses that quiet time for a shower and b'fast, home, quick look at GMEB's, then shower and b'fast myself. Then cross hall to office and look busy.

Put upper plate in mouth; make a cup of tea; light a cigarette; and then sit and ruminate upon what nonsensical natter might have been posted on ChatterBank since you people have a five hour head start over me:)

[boxtops]

Interesting how many of you are on the net before you get up :-)

[Prudie]

weekday:
alarm 0630, go down and make tea, feed cats, go back to bed with tea.
Get out of bed, do bathroom, put on make-up, go down for ciggy, go back up, get dressed, do hair, leave for work.
Weekend:
Still wake up at 0630 and have tea in bed, then go downstairs and have another cup of tea and spend at least 2 hours on laptop before OH deigns to wake-up. Then more tea, then usually slobbing!

[B00]

Wake up to alarm clock and dog bouncing like Zebedee round the bedroom.

Wee

Let dog out, feed cat who's usually screaming to be fed as she's eaten 3 biscuits during the night and her bowl is now 'empty'.

Sit huddled over a coffee, feeling sorry for myself (not a morning person)

The make Mini Boo's butties for school

Start the daily screaming match trying to get Mini Boo up (she's not a morning person either)

Badger her to get dressed, wash face and clean teeth ready for school.

Pony tail her hair to the chorus of "ow, ow ow, it hurts!"

Hustle her out the door

If not going to work- its home again for several more coffees.

[albaqwerty]

Boo, make up mini-boo's butties the night before and shove 'em in the fridge.

I make the sprogs' grub whlst I'm waiting for water to boil for spuds or whatever I'm having to wait for.
