A Day in the Life.

[Janet]

You're a little busier than I am here lately. I need to get off my big butt and do more, but here is my schedule:

5:00 AM get up start coffee
5:15 - 5:45 take shower and get dressed
5:45 - 6:00 watch news and weather DRINK THAT COFFEE
6:00 - 6:15 let dogs out of crates and x-pen and give attention
6:15 wake son up
6:20 - 6:50 go play with dogs, watch news, DRINK MORE COFFEE, warm up bus, answer phone calls from kids who won't be riding and not needing me to pick them up, put dogs back in crates and x-pen
6:50 leave on bus route
8:30 arrive home
8:40 - 9:00 let dogs out of crates and x-pen, start a load of laundry, play with doggies
9:00 get on here and YT, all the while doing laundry, cleaning up kitchen, playing with doggies, making needed phone calls
11:00 on here and watching Days of Our Lives
12:00 eat a little something for lunch, go out and get mail, back to computer.
1:00 on here and watching Passions
2:00 play with the doggies, more laundry, run sweeper, pick up dog toys
2:20 leave for bus route
4:10 home from bus route, let doggies out of crates and x-pen, relax, talk with son about his day, start supper, check email
6:00 eat supper, clean up kitchen
7:00 take nightly meds, check 4WT and YT again
8:00 -8:30 go to bed and watch TV
and then asleep somewhere between 8:30 and 9:30 unless there is something really good on and then I usually have to start the VCR, because I can never make it till 10:00

Pretty dull don't ya think.....LOLOL

If I could stay off this darn computer I could get a lot more doggie clothes made and maybe even sell a few.

Let's see -

1. Up at 5:30, brush teeth, then shower
2. 5:45-5:50 Go pour cup of coffee (coffee pot is set night before and comes on via timer!!). Let Gabby out to potty (Gage is pee pad trained and not allowed out by himself ... he gets in too much trouble when outside alone!)
3. 5:50-5:55 - Turn tv's on in the boy's rooms to start waking them up
4. 6:00-6:20 - put on make-up and dry hair (and going to TJ's room to remind him he needs to get up and shower!)
5. 6:25 - pour another cup of coffee, go outside with Gage, and have a smoke.
6. 6:35 - tell boys to get their bookbags ready, brush their teeth, etc.
7. 6:40 - remind boys again to "get it in gear" for school; top off coffee cup
8. 6:50 - pour coffee in travel mug, get boys to car, leave for school/work
9. 6:53 - at my friend's house getting her son on way to school
10. 7:10 - drop Taylor off at the Jr High
11. 7:20 - drop TJ and my friend's son off at the high school
12. 7:25 - arrive at work and start my day
13. 7:25 - 2:30 - code medical records, review in-house patient records, sneak into YT and here as I can, and if I'm lucky, get 10 minutes to eat something for lunch!
14. 2:30 - leave to go get Taylor from Jr High
15. 2:40 - arrive at high school to get TJ
16. 2:50 - back at work (boys are with me sometimes - if not, I take them home and then am back at work by 3:15)
17. 4:20-4:30 - leave work headed for home!
18. 4:45 - home from work (unless I have to run by the store), sit in the recliner and "catch my breath" for a few
19. 5:30 - start supper
20. 6:30 - or close around that time, we eat - then hubby and I clean the kitchen (if he's home, if not, then I clean up)
21. 7:00 - review with the boys for any test they may have the next day OR if no test, we watch a little tv together.
22. 8:00 - remind Taylor to go get shower
23. 8:30 - remind Taylor to go get shower
24. 8:45 - threaten Taylor if he doesn't go get a shower!!
25. 9:30 - remind boys it's time to brush teeth and start winding down for the night.
26. 10:00 - everyone goes to bed!! I read before going to sleep so I don't fall asleep before 10:30

Add into that mix from the time I get home til I go to bed, when I'm not cooking or cleaning the kitchen, Gabby and Gage are right with me (Gage is actually in my lap now as I type this - he loves his mommy) So, my life is pretty boring too! It's filled with either work or kids - both skin and fur!
