Turn up the heat and open the living room heating vent. Open the curtains. Turn off the holiday lights which we keep up throughout the winter. Turn on the plant lights. Turn off the hall light. Turn on the kitchen light. Put on a pot of tea. Turn on some music in the kitchen which is usually classical or sometimes some jazz.
Empty the dishwasher. Make some breakfast. Most of the time I put some bread in the toaster but occasionally will have cereal. Open up my laptop on the kitchen table. Eat a banana. Watch the birds at the feeder. Drink some tea. Do some writing.
Becky usually comes down about an hour later and immediately begins to fuss with making coffee. I'll usually turn on the TV to a news channel. Becky will make her toast and sit in front of the TV eating her breakfast. Then she will get out her laptop on the couch.
Later I will be sitting in a comfortable chair drinking tea and reading a book. Then Becky will go off to her studio late in the morning to work. Then I will often watch an episode of a TV show that she is not interested in. Usually science fiction or a techno-thriller crime drama.
Another day.
