I have been up several hours which is unusual for me, but hey, there is always hope of me becoming a morning person in my lifetime. Ha, not very likely, but there is still hope! I was inspired by seeing blue skies outside my bedroom window and hopes of it being warmer outside today (it is), and drying up some after all the rain. I've fed the chickens and cats. The dog insists in lounging in his Hilton Hotel Kennel, the hubby didn't want to get out of bed, but I temped him with making coffee for him. I have unloaded the dishwasher, made coffee for myself and popped two wild berry individual cakes/muffins in the oven. They will be ready for cup number 2 of coffee! I have several things to do today which include get an Ebay package ready to mail, get a Farmasi order packed and hopefully dropped off today, and get stock pulled for restock at the boutique today. My husband has to go to town to refill diesel tanks for heater, so I will ride along and drop off package at the post office, get a lottery ticket, and stop at the drug store for my prescriptions. That should be all of the stops that we need to make. What's on your agenda for today? Photo Credit: Pixabay, Public Domain

Sounds like a productive morning! I did a MyLot post and am brewing up my second cup of coffee. No Guitar Center today.

@kareng Wheee! All of the above! Kitty is asleep directly in front of my piano. I think that means she knows I want to play piano. I may do a post about the speakers I'm working on. I have done some work on them this morning. Of course Kitty has received several back rubs this morning.

I guess it is easier to get out of bed when the weather is not -- not cold.

@kareng I don't think so, but didn't go out to the box. The tracking said it was coming to our post office today, but not sure when it got there

It's 7:29 am here, one minute before my alarm. I looked through my window. I see gray skies. I envy your blue skies.

@wolfgirl569 Not for us! We see those temps typically 1 or 2 times a winter and we have already had at least 10-12 with more to come. Mother Nature needs a few slaps in the head!

I wouldn't say that since it was regular routine feeding animals.

It's been a cold morning today. I woke up as usual and got ready for office and in the office. It's not a busy day here as japanese delegate is coming to the office for a visit so we are busy in the preparations.

I love being an (early) morning person. It is a great way to enjoy a bit of quiet time before anyone else is awake and up. I worked today, it was busy, I'm glad that is over. I just made some little meatballs and have them in the muffin tins waiting for the oven to preheat so that I can pop them in as we will have them for supper tonight along with some pork and beans. good comfort food on a cold winter's day.

That is how I think of staying up late at night! I used to do that when my kids went to bed and hubby was working night shift. My quiet time!

We always have two cups of coffee in the morning. Vince always says don't talk to him until after his second cup.

My husband learned to not talk to me until I have had at least one cup of coffee! I have gotten better since retired. I don't have to go to work! Yay! So a much better attitude. And I can sleep later than 5 am every day with no alarms going off!

A fairly busy day. I had plans but ended up doing very little beyond shopping. At least it was sunny and not as cold as over the weekend

Sunshine makes a lot of difference! We had sun today until 2:30 pm. Did you find any goodies while shopping?

You had a productive Monday. Me, too. I was cleaning the house with Maria, my cleaning robot and then went to the post office and grocery shopping for washing and dish washing detergents .

@kareng It's okay. There's no pressure. Just do it when you're ready and have the time for it.

That sounds like a busy day and the morning seems to be pleasant with seeing the sky . Well, it is a busy day for me with office work and things. Plus my persona errands and online work. Should keep me busy for the entire day. I had bread and jam for breakfast and then rice and curry for lunch. The simple ones are the best when you are pressed for time , especially on weekdays. The weather is great .It si cool in mornign and night and warm at late morning and afternoon. So , it is good for now. We are approaching summer and last time was scary with water challenges and outages. Well, then great to see you are doing well. Take care!
