Early Mornings

2020-05-27 2 min read

Every once in a while, I wake up super early, and can’t fall back to sleep. Today was one of those days. I awoke around 3a, and have been up ever since.

Oddly enough, I don’t mind it that much, other than it messes my schedule up some. I’m normally up at 4a anyhow. I have a rather lengthy morning routine, due in part to the fact that I attempt to fit so much into my mornings before work:

I make & drink coffee.
I do some reading.
I do a workout.
I eat breakfast.
I get around for the day in a leisurely manner.

And even after that, I’m still walking out the door (or in the current case, to my home office) around 7a.

So what do I do when I’m up an hour or more earlier than intended? Well… more of the same, normally. I may throw in some extra reading. Maybe I work out a tad longer, or start my work earlier. Sometimes I add in some brainstorming, or (as was the case today) I bring my task list up to date.

Anyhow. That was today. The one downside is, I’m a tad more tired than usual, so it will be an early evening for me…
