Mornings

I've never been the best at mornings.  It seems to me that a body should lie abed until a decent hour of day ... at least until after the clock reads 8:00 or 9:00 .. possibly 10:00 if you're feeling especially sluggish.  Although I've been known to do the last, I really prefer to be up and about before 9:00 .. gives me time to quietly sip my morning tea and read email and online forums before hitting the shower and getting my day solidly going.

Once I lather and rinse, my next half hour comes in tubes, bottles, sprays, oils, sticks and perfumes.  These are the shapes of my morning.
