The Dell

Never the coffee!

The rest may be negotiable. Like setting the alarm the night before- and calculating just how many hours you will get to la-la.

Checking my daily ‘to do list’. Also, something I can, on some days, do without. I don’t want a ‘ to do list’.

Sorting laundry – what if you could get the inhabitants of the home to sort their own whites and colours? In my household, that would be nothing short of a miracle. So the laundry sorting will stay in the routine. Unless…

I could employ some industrious fairies to prepare the dinner – the thinking of what, and how, and the initial niggly bits. I could very easily, and routinely, put it all together and serve up a delicious meal.

Many thoughts are running through my brain about how to shorten, sweeten or avoid my routine.

What a life it would be to wake up every morning without an alarm clock jangling in my ear. And to survey the time stretched ahead of me, like virgin snow, knowing that it was completely my choice where to put my footprints.

But never the coffee!
