Hi everyone! How are you? Welcome to my first post of April 2026! How are we this far into the year already?? 🤯 I refuse to tear the pages off of my calendars ☺️🤣. This recent prompt intrigued me so I thought I would answer it! Being a night owl I do tend to have late mornings but mornings are mornings regardless of when you wake up right? 😅 Should I say mornings one more time? No? Get on with the post? Okay 😁😂.
Let me walk you through what I do each morning 🌄….
What are your morning rituals? What does the first hour of your day look like?
The first thing I do is make my bed! In the last few years I think I’ve only not made it once and that was when I had a virus and got up extra early! 🤣 Making my bed just starts my day off on the right foot and I’m always grateful to my past self for doing it 🙌.
I then do my blind up, this is just the press of a button (its a bit fancy to be fair! This remote control blind was a birthday present years ago from when I couldn’t physically get over my bed to do the blind up myself and I still find it very handy!). Letting light into my room signals the start of a day for me and it’s even better when the sun is out and my room is coated in a golden glow! 🌞
Next I open my bedroom door as wide as it will go and put the stopper in it. This is something I’ve started doing more recently to let air circulate around my room. Houses in the countryside can get pretty stuffy! 🤣 My door doesn’t open all the way as I have a shoe holder storage thingy on the back of it but I still make a point of doing this, especially as we move into warmer weather!
Then I go on to have breakfast, take my medication and get changed for the day! Lookin-smellin-feeling like a million bucks 😗🤣.
What are your morning non-negotiables? Anything you just HAVE to do? Let me know in the comments below!
PS. It wouldn’t be a recent blog post without me mentioning that I have another YouTube video up! 🤣 It’s a Short where I tell you how you can get FREE books!! And I show my face for the first time too! 😅 I was pretty nervous to do this but I knew that I really wanted to and we’re only here once so if it’s within my power to do what I want then I’m gonna do it! 🥲😂 I’ll link it in HERE and would love if you could check it out 🫣. I might do a separate blog post to properly announce it! *immediately starts to type one out* 🤣. HERE is the link to today’s other blog post!
I’ll see you over on YouTube yeah? 🤨 I hope that wherever you are you are having a good day and if its morning time I wish for all of your rituals to fall into place ☺️. Take care, stay safe and buh-bye! ✨️💕
Thank you for reminding me I still need to switch over my calendar. It’s still on January.

Omg I’m the same! I have to make my bed every day! I honestly can’t get into a bed that hasn’t been made, it makes me feel funny… I sound crazy, but that’s 100% a thing I have to do every day!

Yeah getting into an unmade bed doesn’t feel right! Its the one habit I know won’t stop in my life, makes me want to really get into reading atomic habits to see if I can create habits that are as strongly held as that! 🤣
