good day everyone and have a good night to some of us in here whose time zone is different from the philippines or outside the country. i must say that it is drizzling here and love this way rather than to have an excruciating hot weather where mr. sun is exerting too much effort to burn like the earth and us people here in the country too much for that :) the first thing i did this morning was that; as i woke up - i cooked our breakfast. i fried fish, then noodles and then prepared salad. then, after that, we had our breakfast. by doing it, we eat nutritious foods for our body to be healthy. i do not know why i am inspired to cook that i am too lazy of this house chore, the cooking chore. i even jumped out from the bed and did not fixed it yet but i did it after eating. to say, i enjoyed doing it. so what about you, what is the first thing would you like to do as you wake up early in the morning? share ... share ... share!:)

me either, but sometimes i used to wake up early more if i have an early class schedules. i woke up past seven this morning and i cooked first before doing anything. good for you that you are praying or meditating, that is good for the soul and essential to life because we not sustain the health by eating necessary foods to intake but also, we need to feed our spiritual aspect to have good relation to God. keep it up. it is really nice when we are relying things to HIM so that He is the one who is in-charge of everything and plans to do in our life. good thing to do:)

wow i miss waking up in the morning energized for the day ahead. you see i work at night, so the first thing i'll do in the morning is go to bed. it's been like this for more than 10 years, and i just miss doing things while my family is awake. im not complaining though, i was just reminded of how normal people go about their day like cooking, doing household chores, shopping, etc. well, just sharing. :)))

Hello,missjahn! The first thing I did this morning was to check my mail and Mylot1 hahaha! It has been a habit of mine for the past 8 months. Then I went to the kitchen and cooked luncheon meat and smoked sausage for the kids.

same thing here, but not this morning jenn because as what i said, i cooked after jumping out from bed even not fixing my pillows and blanket first. usually our breakfast is always heavy that is why, i fried fish then made salad and cooked saute vegetables with noodles. had my coffee before having a breakfast, yikes! i need to have diet again. i guess, gaining more pounds now. belly dancing is what i am needed ;) thanks jenn

Hmm.. the first thing I did when I woke up earlier was kiss my son, reach for my phone to turn the alarm off and then cook breakfast (as me and my husband go to work). Afterwards, we prepared for work and then left the house and my son with my mom. Basically that is our routine during weekdays.

hello there... good for you that the two of you work. one of the typical ways of having a family where two have each job to raise for a living. because you know, here in the philippines, it could be the wife or the husband goes to work, but there are couples who do not have a work. i mean, not professionally where they go to their corresponding offices but some of them do anything to earn like farming, vending, etc. it would be so nice if both work :) sorry if i lead the story/ discussion into employment :)

i wish i could wake at 10 like you did. i guess, it is in my system when to wake up for when it is 6 am already and when i see lights of the sun entering my room, i do not want to nap, although, i just lay in my bed having my eyes open doing nothing. then, give thanks or prays that anything good happen in a day :)

that is a good first thing to do early in the morning before doing anything else. let God be the compassion of everything before doing the activities of the day. and to have happiness is doing even simple thing like spending with family and have fun. nice that you enjoy doing it. since, it is vacation here - i spend my time with my family as well. we have fun too. we get together for a talk and always having a good laugh. you know, laugh is good for the heart and for the health :) thanks

Hi dear, My routine is so simple! Shart 7:30 to get up, brush-take bath-dress up-tea/light break fast. Done. Get out home at 8:00 and catch the train of 8:19 and 9:35 in office and the day goes upto 6:00 and 6:14 train to back home and 7:45 at home! Then my onw time on computer, songs, and sometime for some snaks and dinner at 9-10 and sleep at 12-01. Over. So, it is so simple as that and time time in office is really nice and work also is under control. Life goes in such a way and how long, mmmm, it is confidential - on he knows! As you said, it is so hot here also and fortunately, get into the office before 10:00 is a lucky sign as I need to suffer the sun's magic on the body. Anyway, there are a lots of people suffer due to heavy heat and in Mumbai, the climate is still good as compared to some other areas in India. In south, the humidity is high and we need to have a big towel in our hand as it may be so swetty if we go out. Ok, so you settled your current bill? thank-s

good for you that you are caring wife to take care of you and feed your hungry stomach. when i get married, for sure i will not do the cooking if possible, it would be my husband who will do it coz i am kinda lazy when pertaining to cooking. but it is alright, my being lazy is still manageable, so no much more worries. oh yes, i enjoyed cooking this morning, my sister helped and also my niece. then after that, we had our breakfast :) thanks! and i must say, you are lucky enough to have your wife, give her importance and love her as you always do :) have an enjoyable day

oh yes, indeed! i cooked early in this morning because my mother told me so and i am just inspired to it voluntarily because she agreed me to take the review for the upcoming board exam this september of the same year. she will give me money for that. that is why i am happy. i hope i am starting the day right and would be all glad this day even until the morrow. but, hmm... you are a typical mother and wife. your kiss gives inspiration to your love one to keep the day on the move for you all. and indeed, let us start the day rightly so that we will be motivated to do our activities goodly as well. thanks for joining me here :) be happy!

Well, I am not a morning person so I don't like to hop out of bed early and do anything. I usually have to get up pretty early to let the dogs out for their morning run. But they will come back in and go back to sleep. I will stay up then because they are sleeping and it is quiet. I will spend some early time on the internet reading the morning news and checking my mail, having a cup of tea. If it is drizzling rain I may just go back to bed because that makes good sleeping.

oh yeah, when it is drizzling the weather is appropriate for taking a nap. but since i do not want to sleep today, i just spend the day facing the net and in mylot to achieve certain amount to reach in the payday for another investment i want to do later if the money is being transferred in my paypal account. i wish i am not too lazy to study my reviewers for the upcoming teacher's board. i hope you will have a good sleep when you want to sleep back. have a nice day :)
