It’s a good morning when I roll out of bed and find some clothes that fit and are comfortable and that also suit my mood for style. It’s a good morning when I brush my teeth and the glimpse I catch of myself through half-lidded, sleepy eyes doesn’t startle me awake. It’s a good morning when I can look in the full-length mirror before I put on my clothes and not assign value judgment to the various bumps and rolls that make up my naked body. It is a good morning when I can look again and say, “Hey, naked is GOOD.” When I can get dressed and stumble to the door, still tired, breakfast in hand, and know that if anyone has a problem with my ridiculous socks (or, you know, the size of my butt), it is their problem, not so much mine.

It sounds like a wonderful morning.
I love this so much, I want to print it out and put it on my bathroom mirror so that EVERY morning can be this good.
In my lexicon, “good” and “morning” are mutually exclusive. ;D
spinsterwitch – It IS a good morning when that happens.
EW – Thank you. If you really do want to print it out, absolutely feel free!
Kate217 – There IS always that. *laugh*
Yippee!!!
I love mornings like that.
