morning routine
electric kettle on
coffee on the stove
short chat over coffee
before it’s all hands on deck
as we get ready to leave
after much coaxing to eat, get dressed, etc.
toddler is in car seat and we set off
first stop school
on good days, he enters his classroom with a “boo!”
on bad days, he kicks and screams, literally
next stop mcdonalds
not for food
but for him to catch an uber to work
then it’s just me
on my way to work
enjoying some quiet
or maybe some upbeat music
i park my car
and am now on foot
i hold my breath as i walk past some smokers
then i get a cappuccino from the coffee shop
and make my way into my workplace
