Getting Back on Schedule

A Day in the Life of ME! (Yeah, you may not want to know...but isn't that the point of a blog?? Cute pic at the bottom, so keep reading!)



5:00 am - Alarm goes off and take at least 15 mintues to wake up...and try my best to kick Josh out of bed. That in itself is exhausting some mornings!

5:15 am - Get dressed, put on makeup, and fix hair while Davey is still sleeping and Josh is in the shower.

5:40 am - Get breakfast ready for everyone...cereal for me, bagel for Josh, milk for Davey.

5:50 am - Get Davey's clothes, diapers, ect. ready for the sitter's. Kiss Josh bye and he heads to work.

6:00 am - Wake up Davey (I hate waking him up, but he usually begins with a smile!) and go down to snuggle on the couch while he drinks his milk. This time balances out the rest and makes me ready for the day!

6:30 am - Get Davey to the car and go to the sitter's. I can't do a "drop and run"...I go in and hang out for a few minutes.

6:45 am - My friend, Jill, comes and we car pool to school. Hey, I am trying my best to be green!

7:10 am - Get to school and do my last minute preparations...make copies, set up labs, etc.

7:35 am - 3:15 pm - I teach, and teach, and teach...Biology and AVID courses, have lunch with the Science Department, and try not to get behind...I always seem to just get by for the day...

3:45 pm - Head back to get Davey.

4:15 pm - Get home and have Davey demand to play outside. No matter how hot, cold, or rainy! Here is Davey sweaty, with tomotoes down his front, after falling in the dirt...finally getting a refreshing drink. (Chloe in the background.)

5:00 pm - Wrestle Davey to come in so I can fix a super nutrious supper! (Tonight...dinosaur chicken nuggets, green beans, apple sauce, and....rice krispies?? Davey wanted a bowl as an appetizer!)

5:30 pm - Josh comes home (though this week he has been moving an asphalt plant and has been spending the night near Paoli) for supper.

6:00 pm - Dog walk around Vernon...Davey chills in the stroller with his fingers, blankey, milk, and some good music.

7:00 pm - Bath time! Davey loves this bath drum set I found on clearance at Wal-Mart! Though trying to wash his hair ends with screaming!

7:15 pm - Davey runs around the house with only his hooded towel on. Air drying is the best, you know!

7:30 pm - Davey changes in to PJs, picks out 2 books to read, we say our prayers (at the word AMEN! he knows is it time for Mama hugs and kisses) and I put him in bed.

7:45 pm - Josh and I sit exhausted on the couch and watch a few minutes of mindless TV.

8:00 pm - We get up to do night chores...laudry, dishes, feed animals...If I am in the mood, I grade papers...it rarely happens unless I am under a deadline.

9:00 pm - Bed at last! Take a moment to thank God for the amazing day I have had!
