What ritual do you have in the morning?

Question

When do you get up, and how (alarmclock or not, morning temper, etc.), and what do you do after that?

Answer 1

At the moment I've got Danko Jones in my CD alarm clock, so I wake up rockin. Then I hit the snooze, then I wake up rockin again, and by that time I don't have time to shower so I just throw on some pants and run out the door. Then I run back inside, put on a shirt and grab my books, and then I run back outside, jump in the car, drive to the transit center, jump on a bus, and go to college. It's a pretty exciting process.

Answer 2

It's funny you ask this question because just last night my 10 year old was laughing at me and calling me a hippie when I'm not only because he was asking what I did every morning once everyone left to school. I wake up at 6:30am, get my 10 and 13 year olds up and ready for school because a school bus picks them up at 7:15am. Then once they leave I wake up my 18 year old who goes into school at 8:00am. After they have left I make myself a cup of coffee and my dog Hercules and I go out to our back yard, he does his thing and I sit on a bench I have between 2 pine trees. I have a wonderful view of the mountains. I take a deep breath and say, "thank you air' , I look up to the sky and say, " thank you sun", I close my eyes and say , "thank you water", then I breath in deeper, exhale and say, " thank you earth" , then I thank GOD for a new day, and for everything HE will provide for me that day and ask that he give my children an angel to keep them safe.
I follow this ritual everyday, when I don't, I feel like I'm missing something, until I do it. Rarely , for whatever reason I don't get to do it on my usual spot, but I will do it as soon as I find a peaceful setting.
I explained to my son that one does not survive with out the other, we need the sun, with out it there would not be plants to provide for our air(we breath what plants exhale) and so forth with the other elements.



Peace and Love your way.

Answer 4

Caffeine! And lots of it.
The first thing I do is pee & then wake up my kids & get them off to school. Then I usually go back to bed.
During the week I get up around 8am w/ an alarm (not a morning person). Weekends, I sleep till 10 or later if my kids let me.

Answer 5

I wake up automatically around 5:30 am, go to the wash room, wash my face and brush my teeth, read my bible, pray get ready for the morning routine with a cup of hot coffee.

O.K. Blood and Milk (Interesting name) I get up at 6am (EST) run through the house in my undies, just to see if I get a rise out of my hubby.
