The work week morning routine

 My Monday through Friday morning routine, prior to work, consisted of:

Wakeup, let the dogs out, feed the dogs, fill their water bowls, make Jenni tea, make coffee, brush teeth, shave, shower, get dressed, pack breakfast/lunch, let dogs out again, kiss Jenni good-bye, and listen to a podcast on the 30-minute dress to work, while flossing, whenever the traffic flow allowed me to drive with my knees.

I've been retired for a month now. 

Still don't have a morning routine yet.

Every day has been a little different, and that's been just fine.

We went away for the long holiday weekend last week.

Jenni seemed a little out of sorts when we got home Monday night.

I asked, "is everything okay?"

"Just thinking about work tomorrow. Do you remember how busy things usually are at work whenever you returned from a long holiday weekend?" she replied.

"Of course I do honey, it's only been a few weeks."

I would have been pondering exactly the same driving to work the next morning, while listening to a podcast and intermittently flossing my teeth!
