this morning i’m trying out something different. the alarm went off at 5:25 am, a half hour earlier than normal. i thought it might be nice to get a jump start on the day instead of hitting the snooze button a few times in an effort to postpone it. how will an extra few minutes in the morning in front of my computer help me throughout the day? guess i’ll find out.

i still hit the snooze twice, but made it out and grabbed a long hot shower. i had no idea the water was warmer and would last longer in the five o’clock hour! i hope to go at this at least 30 days so that it becomes a habit.

i even grabbed my camera in an effort to capture the time. for some reason the first shot taken is always my favorite. so i will post it here for you to see. there are a lot of things wrong with the photo, but i’m not going to try to correct them. let me just put it out there as is, and do the same for myself today. wow, that feels good.
