Morning routine

[WeeGranny]

Well OH will usually bring me a cup of tea and I'll either drink that, or as sometimes happens, I'll fall back asleep again! When I do get up, I fiddle faddle around,put FitBit onto charge and waste time flicking through FB etc before I have a shower, wash hair every second day, moisturise face,body and anywhere else that needs it before getting dressed. I may have something to eat and at some point I'll remember to take my meds and if I'm eating I'll do yesterday's Telegraph puzzles.Clean teeth before the bed gets made. I do housework once a week unless the house is an absolute tip and I can easily be distracted by a book or magazine or even Test match cricket!At some point I will go for a walk, so that puts everything back a bit and it's often late morning before I've started ablutions!Shopping done once a week usually late morning, early afternoon, but routine is the same, though I tend not to walk on shopping day! At the moment I've no daytime commitments so my time is my own, but that'll change once the school holidays are over.

I would love to be the sort of person who leaps out of bed, firing on all cylinders, dives into the bathrooms, has a showers, cleans teeth, moisturises everywhere, dries and styles hair, confidently chooses exactly the right outfit for the day and weather ahead. Then goes to the kitchen and gets a filling but healthy breakfast - all before 8 am!!!

Reality, most days, is staggers out of bed, needing the bathroom. Stumbles downstairs and somehow manages to make a cuppa before opening eyes. Feeds dog on dog food I've had to defrost because I forgot to get it out the night before. Takes tea upstairs - give one cup of OH, while telling the dog to wake him up, and retreats to the computer to start waking up myself!

When I worked full time I was suited & booted by 8am every day ready for the drive to work by 8-20am I was up by 6am every day.
Now it takes me an age to get myself going and on the days where I don't hve to go anywhere I am very lazy with my routine.
OH is always up early and lets me sleep then he walks the dogs and feeds said dog & cat they both then retreat back to their beds until mid morning.
OH makes me tea when I rise about 8.30 and I sit at breakfast bar and go through emails and updates followed by numerous cups of coffee,if I am at home for the day I will clean the teeth and shower and always put on a nice pair of PJs for the day I wash my hair twice a week and spend about half an hour drying it off with it being so long and most of the time it is just pinned up with a bull-dog clip, I never get dressed.
All my family are used to me not getting dressed and laugh at me but I don't care I'm happy.

Why should you get dressed when PJs suit you when you are not going anywhere Glamma! ☺️

Today I will change my routine!!!

I'm going to the hairdressers this morning, so when I have my shower I won't wash my hair. It doesn't need two washes in one day! But otherwise like Oma I wash it virtually every day, and regret it on the odd day I don't wash it!

Glamm - I've got a few pairs of comfy trousers - some for summer, some for winter - and I live in those if I'm not going out.

Daisy this week I have treated myself to 2 x pairs of yoga pants and they are so so comfy I have been wearing them with strappy tops for day time and am delighted with them I think I shall buy another couple of pairs in time for winter.

Glamm - they do sound comfy. Can you get nice warm ones for the winter? I'm a very tender Daisy and feel the cold!
