WHAT DO YOU DO WITH YOUR MORNINGS? in Postcards 4

Bobbie

Thanks to a wonderful husband and a coffee maker on a timer, I start my morning slowly. Usually I have time to read for half an hour with the local news as background on the TV.

Did that broken fire hydrant in Escondido wash my daughter away? Has it really been raining in Portland every day since we left? That sort of thing. Car wrecks, blocked freeways…that kind of disaster also catches my sense of humor in this car centric household.

From about 0610, I’m here at my computer posting to the Discovery shop Facebook account and posting a B&W shot to my Facebook account. I’m really enjoying the B&W work. Then I am off to the pool. Yes, I am really trying to get there just before 0700. I walk enthusiastically, taking up a whole lane, for half an hour, join the aerobics class for twenty minutes, then do my stretches in the hot tub until 0800. Not enough.

I write and read and do blog things till lunch…tho I promised myself I’d be done by 0930. Sometimes, like today, I jack hammered a doctor’s appointment in there too. I’m still doing all those yearly doctor’s appointment things as are several other friends. We moaned and groaned about this last night. And laughed.

What do you do with your mornings.?

• Himself: Monday morning madness. Meeting tonight.


• Herself: Derm doc was late…nice kid. He burned off nine spots and wanted to see me in six months, I said a year, we compromised on 8 months.


• Reading: Finished Katherine Graham’s “Washington.” Excellent read.


• Captain Poolie: Sitting up and doing her PT when we got there. She even stood for a while.


• Gratitude’s: That I am doing pretty good with the time change. Hungry an hour too early and fighting it.
