Morning list

I do love mornings

Start of a new day

Yesterday’s troubles left behind

A chance to start afresh

Plan the day

Set bold objectives

Share exciting ideas over breakfast

The possibilities are endless

Have another cup of tea

Extra toast with marmalade 

Breakfast goes too long

But there is lots of day left

Waste time with a long shower

Can’t decide what to wear

Pull clothes out of the laundry pile

Make another cup of tea

Check emails on the computer

Waste more time on FaceBook

Click on stupid links

My tea went cold

Too early for lunch

Cake is a good mid-morning snack

I can start the diet tomorrow

Eat more cake

Thinking of taking a walk

But it’s raining

Maybe somebody had emailed me

Waste more time browsing

Almost lunchtime now

Leftovers look good

Must eat them to prevent a science experiment

Look out the window for ages

Morning is over

Cross more things off today’s list

Check my emails again

Take a long nap

Mid-afternoon tea time

Eat a whole packet of cookies

Feeling sick

Check emails then lay down

Thinking about dinner

Nothing exciting in the fridge

Check my emails again

Order a pizza

Cross more things off the list

Check FaceBook again

Nothing exciting happening

Pizza guy rings the doorbell

I promised myself to only eat half

Then I ate another slice

Crossing more things off the list

Eat the last slice while checking emails

Getting dark outside

Reschedule walking for tomorrow

Turn the TV on

Waste three hours watching mindless shows

Time for bed soon

Too tired to brush my teeth

Check my emails in bed

Fall asleep holding the phone

Wake up at 3am

Nothing exciting on Facebook 

Nobody emailed me

Tearing up yesterday’s list
