Good Morning Basel

I'm experimenting with new daily routines, trying to find one that suits me and encourages me to do the things that I need to do (since I'm definitely more motivated at some points than others!). Today I got up at 6.15 to go running, and this is the nice view I have when I lean out my window at that hour:





According to my little plan I'm trying this week, after my early morning run and shower, I should move on to German for two hours starting about now (will start as soon as I finish this!). Then off to my office for three hours of proper PhDing, then lunch, then another couple hours of proper work before skipping home for a snack and some quality time with my drawing supplies. And as for other essentials: anchor points are Monday/Tuesday is laundry, Friday is grocery shopping, and Sunday afternoon is house chores. Doesn't that sound like a good Stephanie schedule? I mean, as long as I go to bed early?

  1. Sounds like a good schedule. And yes, getting to bed on time does make those early mornings easier to tackle.
    Glad to hear you are drawing. Will hope to see photos, either on the blog or in an email.
    Maybe at least one day a week could be set aside for a blog update as well. Wouldn't have to be terribly long, just enough to let us all know you are faring well.
    Best wishes to you kiddo.

  2. Do you ever wave at others who are leaning out their windows as they enjoy the morning view???

  3. Great view you have there, and I am very much impressed by your shedule. See you next Saturday, hope you can swim by then and that the weather is fine for a dip in the Rhine.

If There Was No You
Brandi Carlile


When I see myself, I'm seeing you too
As long as I remember it
I'm feeling like I knew that
My jokes aren't funny
The truth isn't true
If there was no you

If you were my boat in the deep blue sea
I'd probably sink you down
I know I should have thanked you for carrying me
But for you I would happily drown

All along your way
The darkest night, the longest day
I know what to say to make you laugh
And nothing you could do could make me turn my back on you
When you're looking for a fight I'm your man
When you need a friend you got my hand

What I really mean, what I'm trying hard to say is that
I'm counting on you and you got me too
My secrets aren't safe, I'm singing out of tune if there was no you
If there was no you

All along your way, the darkest night the longest day
I know what to say to make you laugh
And nothing you could do could make me turn my back on you
When you're lookng for a fight I'm your man
When you need a friend you got my hand
When you need a friend you got my hand
You got my hand
