Quesion of the Day - Wednesday 05/26/10

Good morning everyone!

I am a little bit sleepy this morning and trying to wake up. So my question is related to that.

What do you do to help you wake up in the morning?

Me, I have to have my morning big cup of coffee. The cup I use is a double cup that was in my SS package from Cattybird. The flavor today is vanilla cream. I only drink that one cup every morning since the coffee they have at work is horrible!

I kinda just get up and go but i do have to have coffee not long after i get up otherwise i get the shakes coz i drink that much of it through the day

I need my cup of tea in the morning before I feel ready to start the day.

I have to be to work by 8:00, so I'm out of bed usually by 6:00. I clean the house a bit, just putting things away, cleaning litter boxes, grab my shower, and head on in to work. Once I'm here, I make my coffee (my co-worker, bless his wonderful little heart, already has the Keurig filled and ready to go before he leaves the day before). All I have to do is turn it on and wait for the blue buttons to blink. Once I've had my coffee, I feel that I can face the day. (I've had people come in to talk with me before I've had my coffee....it's not pleasant! )

A large mug of coffee with my toast

I take a shower, feed the cats, then have whatever I want for breakfast with a BIG mug of coffee.

Number one priority in my house is to make the coffee. Darby and Liam like to get up on the counter and watch me clean and refill the pot with the water. If I don't watch it Darby will swish his paw into the stream of water.

It's interesting -- I was commenting to DH the other morning about how so many people identify their coffee as the thing that gets their day going -- and not surprisingly, that's borne out here in spades. But, much as I love my coffee, that's not what provides my jump start -- what I need is a large glass of cold orange juice -- and short of fresh squeezed, only Tropicana Grovestand will really do.

No coffee for me - give me a Pepsi.

I love my coffee, too, but what gets me going in the mornings is a long hot shower.

DIET COKE!!!!
I like coffee too, but Diet Coke is my addiction!

Taking a shower wakes me up but I have SUCH a hard time getting there. haha I HATE mornings - well I take that back.. I hate mornings if I have to go to work!

I like to say "if it wasn't for my job, I wouldn't get any sleep at all."

I feel a little better after my shower, but I don't feel human until I have my coffee.

I have to have a shower. Its the only thing that gets my rickety body moving. My mind is always fuzzy till I shower also.....weird huh? Even if I am not going anywhere, and wake up in the afternoon on the weekends I still have to shower or I get into a funky mood all evening....

I take a shower, that usually works pretty good.

How do you guess?.. ... .. ..

You know, it's strange. I don't really do anything. I make coffee every morning, but I drink decaf and I rarely drink caffeinated drinks of any kind. I guess the hot liquid probably helps a bit though, even if it's of the unleaded variety.

I drink a really strong cup of coffee. Then I walk over a mile to work. That wakes me up
