♥ Nothing Better Than Reading!! ♥ discussion

Up at 7am: walk the dog, get the boy up for school--once he is out the door I brew some tea and sit on the patio and read until it gets too warm. Then I might get around to doing some chores, or not.

I get my children ready for school. After they leave, I exercise, read or edit my writing or someone else's, and then clean. If there is time remaining, I try to learn something new like playing the piano.

I wake up and go back to sleep, unless it is a school day. If it is a school day or softball day i wake up, get dressed, eat breakfast, and then drink coffee.

Fall asleep again. Hate mornings so much.

I hit the snooze button ten times and finally wake up with half opened eyes.Sit still in bed for another ten minutes.Then rush to get ready for office.

I check my fb, read a chapter or ten of a fanfic and eventually listen to my music.

Thought I could sleep in when I retired, but the dog gets up at 0730 and needs to go out: he tries to hold on, but he is so used to my old schedule that it is just easier to get up and start the day. After that, I brew some tea and sit on the patio and read.

Well I'm an early riser so usually get up around 4ish...crazy I no...I even crazier in winter!! But hey wat can u do when can't sleep?! So my morning routine as I said starts bout 4 am get up have shower then plod around...get a large cup of coffee and sit down and read the morning away until 7 and then get ready to leave for work...guess pretty boring...but works well for me...and it fits in plenty of reading time ;)

My day starts by 7 mostly. Mild exercise, tea definitely after brushing, and some melody songs to warm me up. Watching sunrise is a rare thing in my life; which is why I enjoy it deeply, if at all I wake up early accidentally. . :D

I usually wake up around 8:00 AM and i like to take a shower get dressed and all that stuff. Then i like taking my dog ,Olaf out for a walk so he could explore and use the bathroom, and then i like to eat some breakfast, and lastly i get comfortable in my beanbag chair and read a good book! I'm currently reading Nest by Esther Ehrlich.

I have 2 kinds of mornings.
If I'm working, I have the kind of morning where I roll out of bed, into the shower, grumpily do my hair and make up...then leave for work.

If I'm not working. I'll bounce out of bed, make myself a cup of coffee with lactofree milk and spend the morning catching up on youtube videos and reading if I get the chance.

I get up at o'dark-thirty and drink coffee. Then on a good day, I'll walk around the block (2 1/2 miles, breakfast is next then writing time. Consistency is my friend. Susan Monday, susanmonday.com

What do I do in the morning? Hmm, I know as a writer the correct answer is to write. But I do alot more than write. :)

Read the bible, pray over the day
Read KBoards for inspriation to write
Write for about an hour or two (depending if it's summer time or not)
Feed my wonderful cat, Lexi and give her some attention and love
Water my garden and collect the harvest (again, if it's summer)
Get breakfast and get dressed and start my day

Compared to me, everyone sounds so motivated in the mornings lol

Everyday, i wake up around 8 AM and first thing i would like to do is to see God picture on my mobile screen and pray to have a good day to me in my office .

I have a cup of tea and put my makeup on. If it's the weekend, I stay in my pyjamas until around noon, and read my book or watch youtube videos. I love lazy Sunday mornings!

If I have to work I get up(5:30 am) an extra half hour early to make some coffee and sit down at my desk ck my mail and then ck into Goodreads to relax. The off I go to makeup dress jump in my truck and rush off to another crazy day!

Unfortunately I have to get out of bed. :(

I've been up since 3:30 am to send hubby off to work, made cup of coffee and have been sitting here. Found out I won a book Rest Ye Murdered Gentlemen I'll get ready for work in an hour. I get off at noon any way, when it gets busy. hehehe. Wkend off. Yay! Hope all ya'llhave a good weekend and good reading!♥ Tina

Beautiful. Amen.

It's Sat and I'm off' Was up at 2:15 til5am. on to Goodreads. Then back to bed til now. Let dogs out and then here comes the rain. Open windows, air out house.
Cleaned dishes(dishwasher broke) wash clothes. Will try praying to My Lord for a bit. Wish you guys a good wkend.

I usually work 7am, so I'm learning to get up an half hour earlier to slow down and enjoy he morning for what it is.

If it's before 8 am, I wake up and lie there for a few minutes, wishing for all the world that I could fall back asleep. But eventually I will myself out of bed and quietly get ready to face going to class. On the weekend, though, I'm a little less zombie-like. :)

Get as much sleep as I can and hurry up to get ready 10min before school starts. And on weekends wake up early and watch anime on netflix

Drink coffee :) Every morning, pure addiction. I'm trying to to drink the whole pitcher every morning.

What are you doing up so late?

(Trying not to* drink too much coffee)

Hi Tina it's super late for you! Reading actually ^.^
and listening to Mozart haha

Well I'm off to sleep again. Then I will wake up late and have coffee while I'm on here. Goodnight Carl

i'm definitely not a morning person, if mom doesn't wake me up then its not a good morning for me its more or less good afternoon...But unfortunately i'm not so lucky, i have to get up at 6 (even on weekends)but i do enjoy sunrise especially during winters...

I usually get up early...watch the sun rise...I wait until the sky changes from complete darkness to orange and when the new light hits,I'm off to sleep again...;)

I am not a morning person in general, but sometimes I do wake up early. And the first thing I do is check the news on the app on my phone. :) That's an absolute addiction. Breakfast after that.

I am NOT a morning person.
Generally I turn my alarm off when it goes off, (unless I want to really sleep in) then I make myself a smoothie for breakfast.

With the cooler weather my coffee time is cut short, I stay in bed under the warm covers longer!

Cycling

Go pee, check Goodreads amd Facebook.

Plan my novel :)

1. Wake up.
2. Pee.
3. Put contacts in.
4. Get dressed.
5. Fawn over the cat (because she's like that, gotta have her morning cooing and pampering before anything else gets done).
6. Turn on the news.
7. Make coffee.
8. Leave for work.

And this morning's stray from the normal routine, dropping off my car for exhaust work that will cost me a bit of cash.....=[

1. Slap my phone to shut up my alarm
2. Wake up my mother
3. Get dressed
4. Find socks and crutches (ughhhhhh stupid ankle)
5. Hobble to the kitchen to pack my lunch
6. Make a smoothie for breakfast
7. Put my homework in my bag
8. Go to school

turn coffee pot on
let dogs out
enjoy coffee while on computer

It depends on the day. If it's during the week and I will be working form home that day I usually get up put on tea kettle and turn on the morning news. IF I Have to go into the office obviously I have to get reading but I also put the tea kettle on so that the water boils while I get ready. During the weekends if I don't have any plans or have any major chores to get done I get up make breakfast and then hopefully snuggle in for some quality reading time (this happens maybe one or twice a month - crazy life).

Get coffee, play with cat, read in bed.

My morning ritual. I wake at ten. While enjoying a cup of coffee, I check my social media outlets, for the latest updates or messages from fellow readers or writers. Then I open whatever piece of writing I'm working on, and get some thoughts down. A little writing every day keeps the mind sharp, and the muse engaged. If you don't wake the muse with the morning coffee, he could sleep in, and get lazy. Write, write, and write some more, until you can write yourself into history. Having said that, after my writing my spirit starts demanding that I get out of my house, and work the body out in some form or another. Fill the writer's think tank. Its about that time right now for me, got to put on my running shoes and get out on the road. I call it road work. Jogging, or walking, deep breathing to cleanse the body, and clear the mind. Have a wonderful writer, reader kind of day. xoxo

Christmas morning! Door wide open, nice breeze. Dogs sleeping on porch. Up early with a cup of coffee. Hubby still sleeping. A nice quiet day for us! Merry Christmas fellow book lovers!

Oh, I often try to get up...But then I feel like:"Please, 5 minutes more...". Then I will throw myself out of bed, get dressed immediately, look at Facebook and Goodreads, go to the bathroom and drink my coffee :).

I wake up. Sometimes.

I never wake up in the morning till my mom wakes me up. I could literally sleep all day if no one wakes me up. XP

This morning drinking my coffee and watching snow flurries..in Southern Georgia!!

I get up, grab a bottle of water, take meds with breakfast then read my Expositor's Word for Every Day. In the warm weather, I often take my bible and go out on the deck to read. not up early enough to see a sunrise but I make the most out of the mornings

So many here sound so motivated compared to me!

As an example -
This morning I had the alarm go off, groaned, put it on snooze for 10 more min, got up and felt miserable because I'm not a morning person, hurried up and threw on clothes, took my bunny off the porch and put back inside, gave my cat a can of food, put on my keurig coffee while heating milk and creamer in microwave, ate a banana while running around, threw fruit and cheezits in lunchbag, put together coffee and got ice in a cup for a cold drink, ran out door.
