Day 167 ~ Slug Bug


June 16, 2014
My instead: I had breakfast and coffee in bed. 

When the light comes in the window, I might give myself a few minutes to rise to the occasion of a new day. Then it’s feet to the floor and, of course, a run to the bathroom. I don’t consider myself a regimented person, but making my bed is usually at the top of my “to do” list in the morning…and I don’t even have a “to do” list. Making my bed just helps in preventing me from crawling back under the covers.

But let the “instead” begin! Coffee and breakfast in bed! Why not pretend like you’re living a life of leisure…at least until you have to get up to get to work. That was the advice I got from my slacker self.  It was my time to eat, drink and just be…Mary. I did sway from my slug morning and completed a blog. (I had six to write to get up to date.) 

My morning leave of absence was about to vanish as reality pointed its finger of guilt at me. I raced out of the house in an effort not to be late for my first appointment.  

And my bed was left unmade…
