What's the first thing you do after you wake up?

Other than going back to sleep I wash my face to completely wake myself up. My dog always waits for me to wake up and when I sleep in she wakes me up but by the time we get to the kitchen there's no more breakfast left... They give it to the other dogs so I end up eating the snacks behind the cupboard, cookies, candy sometimes even coke... I know it's a bad habit, I'm thinking of buying my own breakfast just for me!

It depends on how badly I have to go to the bathroom, lol. If I ahve to go first I do that. If not I make my bed. Then go to the bathroom. I then go let my babies out. I make my coffee while they are doing their thing. I straighten up the house. Sweep, mop and whatever else needs to be done. If any of the children are here I make sure they have breakfast. Then I go to my computer and check my email for surveys and replies to discussions. I do the shorter surveys and answer discussion replies. I think check out the new discussions of my friends and reply to them. If I feel like it I go back to my surveys I have left. In the meantime, I am checking my mail for updates. Replying to any new ones. Sooner or later in the day I realize that I have not eat anything and will get something to eat. This is mostly how my days go, unless I don't feel good or the children and I have plans.

Hi, actually my grandson put lots of viruses on my computer and I had to have it fixed. I have not had it since Sunday until yesterday. But yes, I did go to you pet. I signed up again and am also trying to get my old stuff. And can you believe that purina started a pet site. I signed up for that one too. I totally forget what they are calling it. It's neat, like youpet.

Do some stretching first, to wake my sleepy head and pump up my blood. Then I'd wash my face, cook breakfast for myself and even for the whole family. Turn the television on, watch and listen to early mornings news and go to work..

The first thing I do after wake up is, look at my watch, ough, what time is it??? If there is couple minutes to get sleep again, then I sleep. But if there is no time, forcefully I step my foot to take a bath. Then have breakfast if there is time... Yeah, I know that it's bored, but that's usually I do on working days...
• Philippines

My cats love their wet food. They will not like me to do anything else but feed them their wet food first. Althought they have dry food out all the time they act as thought they are starving till they get that wet food. Then i can take care of me.

i space out... it has become a habit... i think about the things that happened before i sleep and then think through what could possibly happen when i get out of bed. one thing for sure is that i don't leave my room yet the moment i open my eyes, even if i was awaken by hunger or by noise outside. then after spacing out, when i finally decided to get up. i almost always look for something to eat. but if no one's around, i look for people first, my mom usually. now that we have a cat and a dog in the house, it has also became a habit everytime i'm out of my room after waking up, i play with them, sometimes even before i eat.

i always have this habit of checking my cellphone for any messages that i received during my slumber. if it's anything interesting or important, i'll send a reply, if not, i'll just toss it under my bed or beside me. depending what day it is, i may get up and do my stretches or be lazy and go back to sleep. lol.
• Philippines
27 May 08
stretches are nice to keep you from going back to sleep!

once i wake up, i m still in the bed. until i m totally ready to get out of the bed , i just keep lying down in the bed. then i go brush my teeth, have water, and then milk. by then my husband would be getting ready for work. so would give him milk and send him for work and start my daily routine or just go back to sleep. lol. Otherwise internet is there waiting for me
