A2 Reading Comprehension

Yesterday was a busy day for me. I woke up early because I had to finish a project for work. I’m a florist, and we had a big order for a wedding. I arranged roses and lilies all morning. After work, I went to the gym to exercise. I usually run on the treadmill for 30 minutes. Then, I met my friend Keiko at a café. We talked about our plans for the weekend and drank iced coffee. When I got home, I watched a new TV show about animals. It was interesting, but I fell asleep before it finished. I hope today is less busy!
