Friday

And that is how my brain is working this morning. Not very creative.

There are mornings that I think my brain is just barely on. Enough that I can do basic things like breath and make coffee. The way that I know my brain has woken up a bit is that I can do Sudoku without feeling like every number is a fight in my brain. Once I get the spatial relations working the rest of the brain snaps back into place and I am pretty much back to me.

This morning I made sure that I did things in a certain order so that I won’t forget something in the morning routine. Caroline’s lunch gets made after I give her breakfast and the lunch goes into her bookbag. I then double check with Caroline to make sure that she has packed everything she needs for that day in school and I have signed all the things that I need to sign.

Next I will put together my gym bag and make sure that I have everything I need. After depositing Caroline on the school bus, I plan to get to the gym a little earlier than usual since Peter and I want to go see the new version of Carrie and that is not Caroline friendly at all.

If I can get the brain to engage all the way, then I plan to start on Caroline’s Halloween costume. I need to get some more EL wire and figure out a little more how I am going to do the heart itself. We sorted out the pattern and got the fabric last week.

I am grateful for brains that fire on all cylinders.
