Sometimes in the morning,

Today's sunrise

 it’s the simple things

morning workout

that can make the entire day great.

a cup of coffee

Of course, it’s not always possible to bounce out of bed, but starting the day off right, has a ripple affect and the rest of the day is automatically so much better.

for me, those simple morning things include:
treating myself to coffee from starbucks
a good morning workout
watching the sunrise
a funny segment on the today show
flipping through the newspaper (yes, I still prefer not to read it online)
puppy kisses
boyfriend cuddles
pancakes made by jared
an email from a friend i haven’t talked to in a while
no traffic on my morning commute
realizing it’s friday (oh wait….have to wait until tomorrow for that one!)
