When the house is out of coffee, my day doesn't seem to go right. Same when the paper comes late.<br />I'm not a morning person so I need these rituals that are so habitual that I can do them before my brain is working properly. Without the rituals, I have to think, though I can't because I'm still half asleep, turning the morning into frustration.Max Sartinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07271198231897203659noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7449503.post-79290274907890878022010-12-24T13:12:41.822-05:002010-12-24T13:12:41.822-05:00The Spouse Thingy and I are on such opposite sched...The Spouse Thingy and I are on such opposite schedules that we don't get mornings together...my ritual has become snuggling with a cat that only wants me to get up and feed him ;)Thumperhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02154314376352066709noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7449503.post-51830138455867358342010-12-24T11:55:11.450-05:002010-12-24T11:55:11.450-05:00aw yes, but mine starts with a cuddle in bed and t...aw yes, but mine starts with a cuddle in bed and then on to the coffee, he reads the paper, I read the blogs and news on the net. <br />Merry and Happy to you and yours.judi/Gmjhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08758419906885139018noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7449503.post-7414946375566287232010-12-24T11:39:24.135-05:002010-12-24T11:39:24.135-05:00awww....yes.... my coffee ritual is the same... ho...awww....yes.... my coffee ritual is the same... however, alone, I share it while browsing the web...<br /><br />a day without... just couldn't be. it's "me" time.

Rituals are like mental check lists, to let us know that we are going thru our day.. People seem to think they need coffee to wake up.. Not so, when I started drinking coffee (again) a few years ago, I noticed that before, I really didn't need the coffee to start the day.. I needed the scent of it... cuz it signified a start to a new day....Kalei's Best Friendhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12331539743751163269noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7449503.post-15993663051781717622010-12-24T08:12:07.196-05:002010-12-24T08:12:07.196-05:00I'm a morning person..

Most mornings, I'll sit and read the blogs and the news over my coffee. I like quite mornings.
