How do you.

Start your day.

I wanna know!

The first thing I do on waking, is go to the toilet, if I need to.

Then I must have a cup of tea, can’t seem to start my day without one.

Now.....how about you?

Re: How do you.

My current priorities -

1. Feed Cats
2. Put the kettle on
3. Switch on computer
4. Make a cup of tea!
5. Read and answer emails.
6. Have a nosy in OFF to see what you have all been doing!
7. Prep luncheon and dinner - so I don't have to think about them later.
8. Make something for breakfast - it is last on the list because my stomach doesn't wake up until about an hour after the rest of me!

Re: How do you.

Depends on what time I wake, and get up, if its before 6.00am I put the telly (and Fire) on and have a snooze on the sofa. At 6.00am I put the Kettle on Fire up the Computer, and do administration from previous evenings work and Email accordingly. During this period I float in and out of OFF. 7.30am is usually toilet time, and 7.45am is bath time which has been run on my behalf.

Do you change locations in between?

I used to spend a lot of time travelling and was always surprised to find a coffee maker and sometimes a fridge in the bathroom of several American hotels.
In the UK I once came across a wall mounted bottle opener right next to the thunderbox.

As for my morning routine, it is usually,
Get out of bed then use the en-suet facilities before my daily weigh-in. (Sudden weight increase = fluid retention = extra load on my dicky-ticker.)
Make the bed and dog bed.
Go downstairs to greet the rest of the family, snog my Lovely Cousin who usually gets up first.
Go down to the ground floor, record my weight in a notebook, have my first round of daily pills, and have two blasts of my inhaler.
Next I have brekkers and check messages.
Back up to the top floor to wash and shave.
Back down to start housework or whatever else is required of me by the Chancellor of the Handbag.

Yes, loo first, then take pills & make coffee, potter, then listen to the radio 2 pop quiz. After that, shower dress & switch the PC on.
