QotD is a feature dedicated to answering questions from Piccadilly’s 5 Year Question a Day Memory Journal. The journal states its purpose is to help reflect back on daily routine and to act as a “time capsule” of experiences. As someone who laments their awful memory, I thought this was a wonderful tool and opportunity.

When you woke up this morning, who was the first person you thought?

My partner. Always my partner. The first thing I actually do when wake up is assess where they are. They’re presence alone is always a comfort to me regardless of if they are even interacting with me.
