Mornings... do you let yourself wake up, or get straight to work?

When you wake up in the morning do you have to sit for awhile, sipping coffee, or maybe having a smoke or two, before you get up and get moving? Or do you start your day off by doing something active such as getting a shower straight away, or making breakfast for everyone?

I have to have a cup of coffee in a morning before I can get moving, I am not at my best when I get up in a morning. I wish I was, I wish I could get up and be on the go straight away but I just hate mornings!

I'm not a morning person either. When I was smoking I'd sit here for an hour or two before moving. Now I think sitting here so long is all just habit.

My mornings start by going straight to the coffee pot and then making breakfast for the kids and husband. Then I usually give myself a little time to figure out my day...what needs to get done or where I have to go, etc.... I have to be somewhere I the morning then I do shower first thing but on a normal day I wait until I have ll my stuff done around the house.

I get up, get a cup of coffee, let the dogs out, give them water then sit down to my computer to wake up, drink coffee, smoke, and get a little work done.

I like to be able to just lay around in bed and wake up naturally. I also like to be able to sit here and check my email and drink a soda for a few minutes before I have to do anything. That normally only happens on the weekends though, so I take advantage of it when I can.

The first thing i will do when i wake up in the morning is checking my cellphone.lol. I just want to know if there's a message or not. Then, i will sit for a while about 10 minutes to lessen my sleepy and after that, im ready to move.

Right after waking up I will rush to the bath room and I will do my thing there to prepare for office. That is my usual morning habit. I don't have the time to wake up myself a little further. Happy MyLotting!

I like to enjoy the morning and think about my life and what I should be doing. I like to wait a while before I get up and have my morning coffee which is kind of a signal to start my day. Cheers!!

For me I'll just get up and come straight to the computer, atleast that's what I'd do but my fiance likes to eat first and wake up. Sometimes though I'll wake up before him and just go right ahead the to computer. Now I don't always do this, sometimes it takes me a few minutes to wake up, especially if I hadn't slept for awhile.
