My mornings followed the same quiet pattern. "I always check the weather before I leave," I said. It saved me from surprises more than once.
Weekday breakfasts were never a big deal for me. "I usually just skip breakfast," I admitted. She insisted I at least grab some fruit.
Most days I stuck to my budget closely. "Every now and then, I treat myself," I said. A small splurge kept the routine from feeling grim.
Early shifts had reshaped my whole body clock. "I'm used to waking up at five now," I said. What once felt brutal had become normal.
The smell of coffee basically ran my mornings. "Honestly, I can't go a day without coffee," I laughed. She admitted she was exactly the same.
