What are your wake up rituals?

Step One: Open eyes, usually both at the same time. 

Step Two: Arise.

Reach for my phone and shut off the alarm.
If she's on my shoulder, I kiss the top of her head. If not, I roll over and hold her for a while.
Then nature calls, so I put on boxers (and a robe in winter) and stagger to the bathroom.
Wash my hands, go to the kitchen.
Two cups of bitumen, aka coffee strong enough to stand up and fight me. Nobody had better speak to me until I've finished the second one.

1. Slip-on my shoes  
2. Tinkle  
3. Make decaf coffee

1. Snap, crackle, pop and groan as I struggle to get out of bed.
2. Make my way to the toilet, trying not to stumble over the cat.
3. Slowly go downstairs, trying not to fall.
4. Make coffee.
5. Let the cat outside. This post was edited by Element 99 at August 2, 2020 3:34 PM MDT

I've followed that order for years. 

1. Carefully roll out of bed (don’t want to squish a cat)
2. Put on shorts and flip-flops (in case I step in a hairball)
3. Open all the blinds (thus the shorts)
4. Stretch (light yoga)
5. Shave
6. Get dressed
7. Go for 2-3 mile walk.

Didn't say mine. Mine are to get up and use the bathroom first thing, eat and have my coffee to ensure a good wake up. Then I either check in online a bit on my computer, or turn on the TV for a while, before heading out.
