For the last three weeks I’ve been getting up at 4:30 a.m. It wasn’t easy at first, but I’m starting to get into a routine and I’m finding that this precious time in the morning, with my coffee, before the kids get up, has made a world of difference in how I start my day.
So I’m starting a new daily post called Rise and Shine which I’ll post in the mornings – just as if you and I were sitting down over our coffee (or tea) and visiting. I’ll share my random thoughts and stories, online promo codes or sales that I know about, remind you about good deals you shouldn’t miss and basically just get the day going with a little good morning.
We’ll see how it goes. If I find the posts aren’t getting any traffic, I’ll take a clue and just take my coffee by myself, but we’ll give it a try for awhile. I won’t promise I’ll do it everyday – I have to sleep in sometimes!
What’s your morning routine – do you have one? What kinds of things would you like to see posted about first thing in the morning?
Check back tomorrow morning for the first installment of Rise and Shine!

Awesome! I also love to get up early for “me” time and coffee.

Kudos to you for bring so disciplined! I too find that the quiet, still time in the mornings before the kids get up is very important. I think uplifting and happy posts first thing in the morning would be great. Sometimes couponing and getting the deals seems like a competition so getting the day off on a positive note is always great!
