How do we start the day? We get up in the morning, perform the essential physical and mental tasks and create the ground work for taking on the world. For some of us this activity can take longer than for others. The ritual starts with a shower and all those other things and then in to the office, wherever that might be. Sounds simple until a few hurdles present themselves in the process. I call her GADGET. No, not those toys or playthings we buy to entertain ourselves or something to amuse us because it's different, but GADGET.
I thought when the kids left the house I was over waiting in line for the shower, the wash basin, the bathroom and the seat at the breakfast table. The Gadget stopped that feeling all together when she arrived on scene 11 years ago. I get up in the morning, ready to face the day, walk over to the shower and guess whose sitting in the doorway blocking the way and refusing to move. Yup, Gadget. The look I get is " I'm ready for my shower and I want it a little warmer and a little less intense this morning". Yes, she's a cat and she takes a morning shower. Once finished, she shakes like a dog to get the water off and heads for the kitchen for breakfast where she usually finds me with my first cup of coffee. It takes 10 seconds of chatter from her before I can't stand it any longer and have to get her squared away with breakfast. I head to the office with my second cup of coffee, check my email, sign on to AR and create my "Daily Intentions". Then back to the bathroom to make those finishing touches on my face, teeth and other things. Gadget is back again occupying the wash basin.
That's how I start my day. Gadget........ I wouldn't have a world without her. I don't think I have a choice.
he looks just like my PUNKY! Tiger Kitty with some brown highlights!
