I don’t know what we did to deserve you, Caroline. You feel like the vanguard of de influencing. Snapping us out of our IG filtered, beige and soft pink hued daze and bringing us back to this glorious earth where reality lives and breathes. While making us laugh. And think. Golly, your channel just feels good.

I got this quote from a fortune cookie and I keep it on my desk "Laziness is nothing more than the habit of resting before you get tired."

[josepha]

"Something in the morning has to be stupid" - I ate chocolate this morning, thank you for validating that choice.

Since I retired in 2017, I set my alarm every morning for 8:30am just so I can snooze it and sleep in...it's very satisfying. People ask, why set the alarm? My answer is, after teaching for 31 years, I want to be in control of my mornings and not live by the alarm.

Saw a great quote on Pinterest. “You are not lazy, unmotivated or stuck. After living your life in survival mode, you are exhausted. There is a difference.” This is helping this morning person who is heading to lie on the couch every morning after breaky and going back to sleep.

Thank you for naming 'The Moping Hour.' I didn't know it needed a name, but it somehow makes me feel better.

[tki]

Do you even realize what you're doing Caroline? You are helping us all unshame around normal human behavior, especially ADHD folks like me. I cant tell you how much I have beaten myself up for not being able to wake up at 6am and be showered + ready for work by 9am. AND I'M A CREATIVE BUSINESS OWNER WHO CALL THE SHOTS ON MY OWN TIME GODDAMMIT! Girl, I love you so much for keeping it real and showing us how you can still get shit done. Ok, gonna play pomodoro now, got my new handmade paints website launch coming up. ❤

The early morning people established the rules simply because they woke up first. It’s nice to hear from a fellow late morning lady! Your realism is tops

[syuill]

I am not a morning person. I actually get up an hour earlier than I have to before going to work. I just sit and drink my coffee and stare off into space. This routine actually inspires me to get up in the morning. The thought of getting up and immediately getting ready is just too much for me.

[HannahFoll]

I would call turning on the stove, getting food from the fridge and making it in a pan, cooking. It doesn't have to be 5-star to be cooking.

[elizabethjones]

I love the texting block idea. I saw a post recently talking about how we didn't used to be accessible all the time like we are now. And the expectations have changed. Needing this

[susieklein]

OMG! I am 57 and have NEVER been a morning person. Sure, I did it when I worked full-time, but I never loved it. Now, I sell on ebay from home, so I go to bed @midnight, and wake uo at 0900-0930. If you actually TELL people that, they act like you’re committing a mortal sin! Guess what though? I can manage to pull “all day-ers”. Most people who get up at 4-5am NEED a nap…they conveniently leave that part out. My sis in law asked me why I would miss a sunrise, because Karen, the full moon last night was freaking stunning!

[kittenspit]

I needed this video. I’m disabled with chronic pain and crohns disease and I constantly feel like a failure for my days. This reminded me to do the Pomadoro technique and to be kind to myself. Also I love how you infuse your days with little bouts of happiness by doing flower arrangements or meditative chores like making the bed or folding a few pieces of laundry. I really don’t find content like yours anywhere else and I cannot tell you how valuable it is to watch someone so real and genuine.

[apieceofcoffee]

This is the single most honest morning routine on the platform. Almost exactly what I do, except if weather permits I'm fortunate enough to be able to walk around in my yard to feel some morning sunlight, air and note all the weeds that I immediately start pulling out with my bare hands in my PJs and coffee in my other hand.

[cosmiclovetravelagency]

For people who don’t appreciate 25-5 mins pomodoro proportions (it’s disruptive for my hyper focus), you could also do 47min of work & 14mins break. Yet my favourite is 1.5hrs+ of undisruptive focus with occasional side quests, because I have to use the energy when I got it

[jennas]

“Remember how we all used to sit on the toilet and stare at the tile floor” brought me back and now I’m feeling a strange kind of comfort nostalgia about that lol

[keptthekisses]

I absolutely lost it when the morning journal reveal was a bunch of angry scribbles, the most genuine feelings were captured without need for any poetic musings at all! 😂

[claremiller]

The only thing getting me out of bed early these days is the fact that the 'sit by myself in the quiet and stare into space with no one needing something from me' time has become so important and precious to me.
Going straight from sleep to having to wake up kids and make lunches and breakfasts and get everyone out the door is a recipe for anxiety all day let me tell you.

Tip: to save staining your book pages, put flowers in parchment paper or paper napkins before pressing. I've been pressing flowers for decades and own a flower press. It's fun to decoupage with them too. Xoxo😘💐

[theresagarza]

Thank you. I'm glad to see you reached the "I don't have to wake up at 5a AND I don't have to feel guilty about it" realization at your young age. That's one stress you don't have to carry with you while it ruins your joy for decades. Ask me how I know.
