I wake up early so I can walk on the treadmill.
Sometimes, I wake up far too early.
Instead of going back to bed, I lay on the sofa for a while and read email.
Tinny thinks that this is an invitation for a hug, so she lays down on my chest and takes a nap.
This makes it hard to get up and go walk on the treadmill.
So, I lay here and hug Tinny for a while.
She’s annoyed when I eventually lift her off of me.
Plenty of time for hugs after I walk on the treadmill.
