MORNING ROUTINES FOR WASHED UP MEATHEADS
The routine begins in the wee hours of the morning, as they get up before the rest of the world because they have to piss after every couple of hours of sleep. #earlybird
Sometime around 6-7am, the lower back, shoulder, and neck pain gets so bad they know that they have to move. This struggle goes on for 20-30 minutes, because the pain sucks, but they know it will be way worse when they move. But if they don't move, the pain in the shoulder will go to the trap and then to the neck, and finally, their eye will begin twitching, as the migraine sets in. #struggleisreal #duespaid
Finally, the CPAP mask hits the floor, slide their torso to the center of the bed, use their left foot to push the right leg to the side of the bed, roll onto their right side and kick their calves off the bed. This allows leverage to pop up off their side and onto their elbow. From here, it's simply just pushing through the elbow pain to bring their body into a seated position. Breathe in through the nose and out through the mouth... visualize the feet hitting the floor and moving into a standing position; 30-60 seconds later, they slide forward, feet hit the ground and stand up. It takes a minute before the foot pain subsides, but then... the first step of the day! #smallsteps #morningmeditation
With eyes swollen shut, they make their way into the bathroom to grab a handful of their morning meds and waddle into the shower. Heat on high, leaning against the wall with the water blasting on the upper back, neck, and lower back... slowly, the body begins to loosen up to a point when they consider shaving their head. While reaching forward to grab the razor, their shoulder pops twice. Hat day. #bringtheheat
Getting dressed without bending over, one foot at a time. Shirt overhead and socks... tossed on the counter for later. No mistakes because one slip and something else pops and it all starts over. #nodoovers
An hour later, they make their way to the kitchen to get coffee and ice bags. The next 20 minutes are spent with ice on knees and java in hand. #icedcoffee #beattheclock
Now, the day begins. The best day EVER! #grind #beatmode #getshitdone
