Morning has broken
Wow, I felt like a real live grownup this morning.
The thing about me is, I'm terrible at mornings. I'm always up too late, which means it's always hard to get up when I ought to, which means I'm forever rushing through my shower, which means 95% of the time I get up, shower, dress, and run out the door. I eat breakfast at work. I put on makeup at work, if I'm wearing it at all.
Now, the few times I have managed a more civilized morning, it's felt pretty good, and it got my day started on a better note. But it wasn't soooo much better that I'm going to totally swear off my late nights. Lately I have been going to bed a tad earlier. Last night I was asleep before midnight, and that never happens. What can I say, I was tired.
But it worked out because I'm making chicken in the slow cooker today, and I had to assemble it this morning. I didn't want to do it last night (as I normally would for a slow cooker thing) because I just didn't want the raw chicken sitting in the fridge in the crock pot with lemons and rosemary all over it. So I managed to get up at a decent hour, shower, and then I actually had time to put together the chicken dish (which involved skinning the chickens, eww) while I watched the Today show.
I still ate breakfast at work, though. :-)
Necklace of the Day:
This is one of my favorite necklaces because it's big and funky. Much like myself.
