unedited for 100 days. Day 4

Gimme that routine baby. I'm all about that right now! There are so many unknowns in each 24 which is why I'm finding some peace, actually most of my peace, in the little things these days. Perhaps a few years back I might have jumped in my car and gone hiking after work, or gone on a spontaneous and very therapeutic 3 hour walk with my dog, or maybe just vegging out all Saturday with my favorite show... ahhh those were some peaceful ass days. While those luxurious days of complete freedom may be gone (for now), I have been looking for other ways to bring a sense of peace and calm to my life. Things like that first cup of coffee in the morning. I want to be able to just push that beautiful button as soon as I get out of bed and know that the water tank is full, the beans are ready and my favorite mug is clean and ready to contain the most important beverage of the day. Which is obviously Bulletproof Coffee. You've tried it right? Game changed. I've been on it since 2014 and I still swoon. But back to topic, I think it's easy to let everything landslide when we are in a season of chaos. We let laundry pile up, we lose things, we get personally offended at things like dirty coffee machines or empty gas tanks... like "of course the tank is empty on the one day I need the car!"  I think it's important that at minimum, you give each day a fighting chance with the basics. It may take extra time at night to prep but it's always worth it. At least you can sip on that trusty joe while life throws yet another curve ball your way. It may not be a serene hike in the mountains, but it's your favorite mug damn it.
