Now Charlie, perhaps you had it right the first time. When my wife stays in bed after I get up to make the coffee, she's thinking through all the day's activities, her lesson plan (she teaches art), the shopping list (that she'll hand over to me after breakfast), and at least a few other projects. By the time she gets up (around the time the coffee maker burps its last bit of hot water), she will have figured out the "rest" of the day, during her "catching up on her rest". That lady's my eternal inspiration. If she ran the gubermint, the newspapers and news channels would go out of business, as there would be nothing to report on.

I am just an earlier riser than she is, always have been. She does a lot at work; she's the admin. aide for the deputy fire chief of emergency operations. It's a rather large department (700+ career on the street, but there are also volunteers) so there isn't much downtime for her at the office.

Then a rest is well deserved. Hope you brought her coffee so she can sip it in bed while perusing the funnies...

I know Charlie's avatar supposed to be spooky, but he's kinda cute!

I'm going to change it in a bit. I have a couple of photos that fit in with breast cancer awareness but I have to squish them down first.

We bought each other a Keurig for our anniversary so she just hits the button, but, yes, I frequently bring her a cup.

You guys bringing your women their coffee...

I'm not a morning person at all. Lately I've been getting up at 7:30 every day...it's a thing I'm trying now...long story...but my boyfriend still gets up before me usually and will bring me coffee when we stay together.

It all reminds me of when I first graduated from college. I had 9 months between graduation and the start of grad school, so I was temping and living at home. My father was retired but still used to waking up very early, and he knew I was always rushing around in the morning, so he'd make the coffee, put mine in a travel cup, toast my bagel and wrap it in a paper towel, and wait in the kitchen so he could hand it to me as I rushed out the door.

Can't tell that story without tears.

I started back to school in 2004, taking one or two classes a semester. In 2009, I was able to take an early retirement so I took classes full time for three semesters and graduated in December, 2010 (BS in Geography, concentration in GIS/Cartography).

After for the three years after graduation, until I started this full-time internship, I was house-husband: cooked, cleaned, spoiled the kitten. I figured since she was working all day, the least I could do was work at home.
