Today’s task was to get up an hour earlier than usual. I long ago embraced the benefits of getting up earlier than the rest of the household and strongly considered giving this one a miss but as I was laying in bed debating with myself over whether or not I should get up the telephone rang.
While there are not many reasons to call me at 5:30am there are some circumstances where it could happen. I was tempted to let my husband get it since he was already up but he seemed in no rush to so I got up to answer the phone. It was a wrong number.
Obviously the gods want me to follow through with this program and I dare not thwart their will so I stayed up.Like myself, my husband is not a big one for early morning conversation, so we grunted a few grudging sentences at each other in a half-arsed attempt at politeness then he went off to work and I used the extra time to get the kitchen tidied and to watch some early morning TV, the process reminding me why I don’t usually do either of those things first up.
