I am a morning person. My routine is basically the same as last year.
Only a few minor changes.
I now get up at 5:00am.
I started following a 30 minute beginner pilates YouTube video. So far I make it to about 17 minutes in. Pilates is hard!
I can leave for work, at the very latest, by 8:30am. I work at a high school now, located much closer to where we live than the junior high school I worked at previously.
We’re still living in the RV. The dome’s roofing is almost finished. Drywall in well underway.
This time next year, I should be writing this blog in the office of our dome.
I’ve taken a photo of this morning’s RV space as a nice memory to look back on.
I do look forward to taking a photo this time next year of our writing space in the dome.

It’s 5:05am in the morning as I start to write this Daily Prompt, on a beautiful, clear, starry Monday morning.
Monday – Friday my alarm goes off at 4:00am. I’m usually up and starting my routine by 4:30am.
I start the coffee, turn on the atmosphere lightning of a salt rock lamp, string of white lights and the electric fireplace. I find a Youtube soft jazz video and put it on the living room TV. I let the dogs out.
I pour the coffee and bring hubby his cup of java in bed.
I make my lunch for work then sit at the kitchen table and open my MacBook Air.
I clean up my emails, then dive into blogging.
After blogging I go outside to fill the bird feeders, clean the yard of dog poops, and check on our cat Georgie who loves being outside.
I come in, do a few stretches and exercises if I have time, then jump in the shower to get ready for work to leave by 8:00am.
I love the morning. It’s quiet, peaceful and I have the energy needed to be creative.

I can relate to the waking hours’ time and the chores for pets.
How many pets do you have? 😊🌻
I have 4 cats and 2 dogs. We also have goats, chickens, and fishes.
We have a fish tank and two beta fish in their individual bowls. We hope to have chickens, and will build a coop to keep them in. We love goats! Do you get milk from the goats?
Oh, wow, I enjoyed watching fish, too. No, our goats are only for meat or sell to buyers.
It seems you live on the farm, too, Stephanie.
A beautiful picture looking out! 🤗💛🌻

Wow, that’s quite a nice view to wake up to! I also love soft jazz…smooth jazz..well, any jazz really! Have a productive and peaceful day, Stephanie!
Thanks Daniel. I hope your day was productive and joyful. 🌻
Indeed it was! Put up the Christmas lights and got some grocery shopping in. It’s getting crowded out there already! 🫨 But I’m ready to stay busy after last weekend!
I went to Costco last night and it was that seasonal busy to it, busy! What happened last weekend?
I was just being lazier than usual on account of all the Thanksgiving stuff! 😉 Now I’m back in action!
Happy belated Thanksgiving! 🦃
