NJM # 9 – morning routine
my morning routine is very simple and rushed actually, so I’ll include my daily routine.
6:20 am – the alarm goes off for the first time. I roll over and hit the snooze button.
6:45 am – the alarm goes off for the last time. Devon and I have a brief conversation about how we slept, and how we don’t want to get up and both roll out of bed. I get to use the restroom first, where I brush my teeth and try to get my hair in some sort of managable condition. I then switch places with Devon, get dressed and put on my shoes
6:55 am – we both realize we’re running late, and rush to take our medicine and grab stuff for our lunches. I go on the hunt for my glasses, and she either loses her phone, her pendant or lucky rock, which entails running around the house looking for said lost item
7:02 – we are out the door, and the car is defrosting the moisture on the back and side windows.
7:07 – I am stuck trying to find a break in traffic to get out of our apartment complex. Sometimes I’m lucky. Sometimes not.
7:15 – I drop Devon off in front of her school for her daily work, then hightail it out of there on my way to mine.
7:40 – I am stuck in traffic, either on the bridge, or on ulmerton about 5 minutes away from my job. This is infuriating.
7:55 – I make it to work and clock in. Finally.
8:00 – 10:00 – I am working, most likely doing vendor adds/revisions, possibly labs and the w-9 project
10:00 – 10:15 – break
10:15 – 12:15 – working, see above
12:15 – 12:45 – lunch-ish. Which more often than not means I’m eating at my desk, working, see above.
12:45-3:00 – working, see above
3:00 – 3:15 – break
3:15 – 4:00 – working, ie, mad scrambling to get everything done that no one gave me until late
4:00 – coffee stocking rounds, count taking, and sometimes ordering resupplies.
5:00 leave. or work overtime. whichever.
5:30 – get home, think about dinner, possibly shower and clean up the house
6:15 – if she has gone to the gym with LeighAnn, the girl gets home
6:30 – make dinner and eat, collapsing on the couch to watch tv
7:30 – do my exercises.
9:00 – Devon passes out on the couch, and I get to have the remote all to myself.
10:00 – I start waking Devon up, and go outside for my last smoke
11:00 – take Devon to bed, and watch tv for a few moments before putting in my earplugs and going to sleep.
thrilling, ain’t it?
