Sloth's 5 AM club Coffee time!

Good morning my wonderful buzzers! I thought I would try out the Cinnamon Cup Coffee community this morning, I'm rather enjoying slothing around and trying new things these last few days! My Coffee of choice this morning is a Brazilian brew, roasted and chocolaty! A delicious start to the day!

Yoga't this!

It's another day of the Sloth 5AM club! Another morning of Yoga for the Sloth to shake off the nighttime aches! I never thought I would be a Yoga Sloth, but even after a couple of mornings, I'm really starting to feel the benefits!

Again this morning I woke up with some aches and pains, my back and arms mostly. So I jumped onto youtube, found a nice Yoga for beginners video and off I went! Today I used this one, very easy to follow even for a complete noob!

The 20/20/20 method

So after that, as part of the 20/20/20 plan from the 5 am club, it's time to do some 'reflecting' or 'journaling' which I'm counting as a good excuse to get a Hive blog post done for the day! Then it's on to 20 mins of mental preparation and planning for the day ahead! Make a plan of action to get the most buzz out of your day!

The weather is to be pretty good here today, so I'm going to stick some washing in the machine before getting the dog out for his morning walk. Then when I've got that hung out to dry, freshen myself up and crack on with my morning tasks. Curating, engaging and writing at a sloth pace!

It's a Dog's life

Funnily enough, although my new morning routine is making me feel awesome, my doggo doesn't agree. He's used to being the centre of attention when we wake, normally around 7-8 am, then we'll head straight out so he can do his morning toilet, before coming back in and getting his breakfast. These last few days he's been sent back to bed! So I get the cold shoulder for the first hour of the day!

How cute does he look all curled up in his (tiny!) bed? This was actually his puppy bed, but since we're visiting my parent's house this weekend it's his 'day bed'. He's rarely in it, normally finding a comfy place on the sofa beside me! But I do love it when he curls up in it, reminds me of him being a tiny puppy! And don't worry, he has a nice big bed upstairs for bedtime!

Yes, that's the same bed 14 months ago when I got him!!

Picture your day ahead!

The views from here aren't great, and apparently trying to take a picture of the rising morning sun doesn't play well with my camera! It certainly looks better in real life than in this image! I think I'll go for a nice long walk in the early afternoon, hopefully snapping some pictures to give myself more content to share in the coming week!

Hive content and contests?

Talking of content, what daily/weekly challenges do you complete? I see many awesome communities adding weekly challenges to users! The slothbuzz community has been nudging me to do the same, giving us a weekly topic to write about, however, I see so many other amazing ideas I'd feel like I was copying them! It might be a better idea for me to try to work with these communities to share their weekly topics and help give the users some more buzz!

I need some more page breaks and images!

I keep meaning to make some more page breaks, having recently made them for sloth.buzz curation reports, they make a nice addition to a post!

When I first got into Hive I made several for different projects and individuals, it's time to dust off my creative hat and make some slothly ones! (I've added a bunch in that I made earlier! I think I'll add some time to today's schedule to make some new ones!) I should really consider making a footer also! So many awesome things I'd want to add to it though!

Sloth out!
