Up Before the Roosters

Today's good thing is waking up before the alarm goes off. I woke up on my own this morning about 15 minutes before the alarm. I got to stretch and listen to the birds for a few minutes without that sense of urgency that makes you slide out of bed (or burdens you with guilt if you don't).



By the way, why is it an "alarm" clock? Doesn't that sound a little sinister and more dramatic than it needs to be? It sounds like you're waking up to an emergency every day. It should be a "wake up bell" or a "morning notice."



I was downstairs in time to fix Kate's breakfast the way she likes it and everything went smoothly. Nice morning -- indoors at least. Outdoors, it's damp and cold.
