Wake up  
Make coffee  
Try to find the best morning routine for too long  
Realize I havent done much  
Coffee is cold  
I’m late  
Well, maybe tomorrow I’ll do better.  
Run all day because I’m late.

Fake it till you make it is a valid strategy for certain habits. I read in a brain chemistry book ‘Nuerons that fire together, wire together’. Eventually it will be natural. Keep it up!

There’s some honesty. Baby steps. Make that morning routine as easy as possible. only add to it when you know it won’t prevent you from doing it tomorrow.

Hahaaa. So, ok… After I got arrested, I was so deeply ashamed. The way I grew up, this just does not happen. I wanted to crawl in a hole and die. So, every day, I look at the mugshots to not feel so alone lol. I’m not the only one who has fucked up. Sometimes I see people that look so sad and I just want to hug them and promise them it will get better.

On the flip side, I have also come across some really funny shit 😂

My best friend is a cancer survivor and very into being healthy. She told me about the oil pulling which I have never heard of! Apple cider vinegar in warm water I had heard about on many different website’s. And the Bulletproof Coffee she also told me about. It is a biohack and really good for your body. Check it out my husband and I enjoy our cups of bulletproof every morning!

After the usual wake up, brush teeth, etc stuff -  
I put on a cartouche necklace that has an image of my higher power holding me up, say the 3rd step prayer, and then go make coffee. If I’m awake early enough for an 8:00 am AA meeting, I go to that one and if not I make a plan to hit the noon or 6pm meeting. After that it depends on my mood, what needs doing around the house, and whether I’m feeling creative enough to work on art stuff.

I kind of got addicted to audiobooks in early sobriety and it’s a part of my life now. Not trying to brag or anything 🙄 but I am consuming 60/year. Total game changer.
