Monday morning

Today started way early. My wife has a meeting about two hours away and needed to get up at 5:30 to get there on time. I got her coffee ready and gave her a snack for the road. She left and I was too wired to even attempt to go back to bed. I actually woke up at 4:30, so maybe there’s a nap in my future, but most likely not.

Right after she left, I noticed that she didn’t take her medicine. Crap. I forgot that when I was rushing around getting the coffee ready and packing up her snack. I know one day is not likely to hurt, but I still feel really bad.

I put a bagel in the toaster and remembered that I need to clean up some cat vomit by the food dish. At that time, I got my hand stuck in the wipes container. I suppose I could’ve pulled my hand out more roughly, but naturally the top of the container is sharp so I didn’t want to do that. So I calmly just rotated my hand and wrist around until I got myself free, but it took much longer than it should have. I am glad I was alone because it must’ve been pretty funny to watch.

And then I realized I burned my bagel in the middle of all of this. Thankfully I can laugh at myself and I don’t mind bagels slightly darkened, especially with my delicious blueberry cream cheese. Happy Monday morning to me!
