Each day differs a bit, but lately I’ve fallen into a nice routine in the mornings. Although it doesn’t include a workout, I’m just glad I wake up early enough to have some time to relax and drink my coffee!
Step 1: My alarm goes off and I roll around in bed for a while until Bry gets out of bed.
Step 2: I usually wake up like a zombie, make my way downstairs and walk over to my best friend. I pick up my favorite coffee pod at the moment, Green Mountain Coffee Pumpkin, and started brewing.
Step 3: Drink my coffee/eat breakfast on the couch while watching the news, typing up a blog post, checking emails, and reading other blogs.
Step 4: Head to the bathroom to brush my teeth, put on my makeup and do something half interesting with my hair. *Side note, I’m SO happy I’m getting a hair cut today because my ends are fried!
Step 5: Turn on the iron if I have wrinkly pants or tops. Proceed to get dressed.
Step 6: Make sure tweets promoting my blog post have been scheduled for the day.
Step 7: Make lunch.
Step 8: Gather my purse, lunch, phone, car keys and head out the door!
Step 9: Drive to work.
Nothing out of the ordinary. Unfortunately I haven’t been running in the mornings lately, because of my new work schedule. However, I’ve been trying to get my runs in after work so that I don’t fall behind on my training schedule.
Stats from my run on Tuesday night that I talked about on my last blog post.
Last night after work I almost fell asleep in my car on the ride home, so I did not go to the gym yesterday. For whatever reason, last night I was completely exhausted. I came home from work, sat on the couch and stared at the wall for a while and Bryan was nice enough to prep dinner.
It was probably due to the lack of sleep from the night before. On Tuesday night, Bry and I stayed up to watch Sons of Anarchy – a show he started watching form the first episode but I tagged along and got into it last season. Crazy episode! I won’t spoil anything for those who have yet to see it, but OMG.

i’ve been craving starbucks pumpkin spice latte, only reason i haven’t gotten it is because it is 90 degrees outside, just doesn’t feel like fall yet lol it must be fall weather for me to get it!!
it’s almost friday!!
I’m loving the Green Mountain Pumpkin Spice too!
I have it EVERY morning lol. I like it a lot better than regular flavored coffee with pumpkin creamer 🙂
Neat idea for a post! We used to play a game where I used to work to tell us things like this; morning routine, shower routine, end of day routine. It’s a neat ice-breaker and way to find out about others! My am routine is a tad different as I workout in the morning. If I don’t do it 1st thing, I’ll slack!
That’s so cool, Katie! It is a nice ice-breaker b/c you get to find out things you probably wouldn’t have other wise! Where did you work?
I am so jealous of your morning routine. Mine is – wake up to alarm at 6:15. Out of shower by 6:30. Out the door by 6:50. Wet top-knot with my hair, always.
Oh goodness!! I like waking up really early so I have time to relax in the morning. Gives me time to blog, drink coffee etc. Top-knots are chic, so you’re good to go!
So cool reading this post! Definitely got to know you better! Loved it!!!!! I don’t really ever drink coffee. I become a grouch if I do 😉
I’m a grouch if I don’t have coffee!! LOL.
