January 2nd 2020: Following a morning routine

I'm off to a rocky start with my challenge already. It's day two, which is supposed to be "Follow a morning routine." Well, today is Thursday which means that it's trash pick up day in my neighborhood. My point is that my morning routine on Thursdays is usually me rushing outside looking like a hot mess scooping up all the land mines my dogs gift my yard. Then hauling the trashcan into the alley. Wow, I have three blog posts and two mention poop, foreshadowing?

I followed up my super exciting trash day routine with my everyday one. Which consisted of feeding my crotch goblins, chugging water, cleaning up my house for 15 minutes, starting a load of laundry, and then a lot of iced coffee. About halfway through the morning I realized that I flopped. So I decided to start working on my blog, got it published, set up a twitter account and tweeted. I was telling myself, this is a morning routine, I'm not failing, this is fine, I'm fine.

However, I wasn't feeling successful enough to call it a challenge win yet, so I decided I needed to take a shower and wash my face. While in there, I successfully convinced myself that I did win. That was a morning routine. Granted it wasn't bright and rejuvenating like I had imagined it being; but for a Thursday during winter break, it was at least productive and made me feel better. That's a win, dammit. Right? It's fine.

Let me know your morning routines, apparently I need ideas.
