I have a 5 month old baby girl and a 3 1/2 old boy so the routine varies every morning. I figure if I brush my teeth, get dressed and eat my breakfast before 10 AM I am doing great that day. :-) I don’t really have a set schedule each morning.

If I open my eyes before five, I end up sick. Cynthia, I'm very much like that man who joined the circus (although I can't juggle or wrap my legs around my neck). I love a routine. I crave it. That's when I'm most productive. Bethany, I’m with you! If I open my eyes before five, I end up sick.

I think I would roll over and die! In fact, that's what I do! Roll back over and die until later in the morning (we won't say how much later!). That's one of our problems with homeschooling. For the first half of the year, we were very dedicated to our schedule and started exactly on time every day, but now that the end of the year is within reach, I think we're getting senioritis! This is a good time to hit the reset button on the routines! I can’t believe you ladies getting up before 5:00! I think I would roll over and die! In fact, that’s what I do!

I do NOT intend to keep that up any longer than necessary. I heard once about a young man who ran away to join the circus not to escape the rigid rules at home but to find the comfort of routine. The circus operated on a carefully constructed routine of work, practice, meals, play time. He craved the routine. Interesting concept. Lately, my routine has included rising at 4:45 in the morning!

My schedule: Get up at 4:30 to make my husband a smoothie before work so he won't pass out and die from hunger on the freeway. Feed the cat who has been pawing at me for more than 2 hours trying to get me to feed her. Weigh myself so that I can officially ruin my day before it starts. Dress, straighten up the place for a few minutes (we live very simply so thankfully not much to do!) Update my blog, do my bible reading, drink my cofee. Answer emails. Write all day, taking breaks to check out the ACFW loop and online news things that interest me. Yoga. Dinner. Spend the evening with my honey reading. Go to bed. Wake up. Begin again. It's a nice life. Kids are grown. Sally,

I've done that so many times, sat down and planned out this beautiful schedule that accounted for almost every minute of the day. It's that perfectionist in us! Start with key schedules/routines that will get you going throughout the day. That's what I'll be talking about the next few Fridays, if it's any help. Don’t try to schedule your whole day at once!

I find it difficult to follow any schedule, but I'm working on that. I wish I had a daily schedule I could stick to. I find it difficult to follow any schedule, but I’m working on that.
