I awoke this morning with the strangest, and I do mean strangest desire. The feeling was foreign and unusual, it was weird, at least for me.
People do it all the time, I just don’t much care for it. My husband does it almost every morning, he’s on his own though, I never seem to have enough energy. He says it’s invigorating, the best way to start a new day. I’ve done it in the past out of necessity, but there was never any actual enjoyment in the act.
It doesn’t seem natural to me, but this morning, I took a deep breath and I did it. Truthfully, it felt pretty damn good. I don’t think I’ll make a habit of it, but I suppose if the mood strikes, like it did today, I won’t fight it.
Do you do it? Get out of bed right away in the morning? I fight the waking up and getting out of bed part of my day with fervor, I stay tucked in and cozy as long as I possibly can.
I am going to admit something, this doesn’t mean I will be rising and shining with the breaking of each new day, but I am enjoying the quiet an early morning offers. The coffee my loving hubby brought me before he left for work is still hot and the birds are happily singing a morning song to me. I didn’t even cover my ears and wish them to fly away and take their symphonic cacophony with them like I generally do.
Still, there is a part of me that wants to lay back and snuggle in, but a shower should cure that. Good morning, quite a good morning indeed.

I totally snuggle in. Have to be dragged out some days, if I’m being honest 😉

The dragging out of bed occurs regularly around here. My children definitely took after me in this regard . . . we drive my early bird hubby crazy!

Thankfully I keep it right next to my bed, so I never have to go far!

Husby stays asleep when I get up. I think I’d irritate him. Good grief no wonder our marriage is so crappy – we go to bed AND get up separately…and neither of us can really be bothered to change things.

We never get up together, he can’t fall asleep without me tossing and turning I guess since he won’t go to bed unless I do. Maybe tonight you should just snuggle in together and fall asleep. I want ya’ll to be happy, not crappy . . .
