SUYL - Just another day.

Today, I decided to again take part in SUYL @ Kelly's Korner. My typical day can be busy. To me it's usually the busiest before and after work, but you decide for yourself.

My first alarm goes off at 5:00 am (not that I ever get up that early) hit the snooze button for another 10 minutes of Z's. Again the alarm goes off and I drag myself out of bed. I let Maverick outside, then feed her, check to see if the hamster has food and water. Then let Maverick back in, and drag myself up stairs to feed our monster cat, who by the way has not stopped meowing since I walked out to the bedroom. I'm so not a morning person.

By this time, it about 5:20am, I get ready to do my morning workout (I've been doing this for the past 2 weeks and I really enjoy the workout part, not the waking up earlier part). I'm normally finished by 5:50 and that's when the fun begins. It's time to wake up Ryan.

We have decided that I'd wake him up at 6 am so that he can take a shower and then crawl back into bed until 6:50am. I don't know why he likes doing this, but we've had many pleasant mornings since we began this routine. After spending 10 minutes trying to wake up the dead, Ryan finally jumps in shower. After all is said and done we finally get out of the house by 7:25. I drop Ryan off at my mom's and then it's off to work by 8:00am (hopefully).

My work day is rather typical: clock in, load files, reconcile daily transactions, send out variance reports, LUNCH, answer emails, return phone calls, clock out and go home.

On a good day I usually get to my mom's around 5:30pm to pick up Ryan. I spend sometime with Brady and trying to get Ryan off the computer so we can go home. By 6pm, I'm finally on my way home. I get home, let the dog out, fed the dog again and Ryan's in charge of feeding the cat this time. At 6:15-6:30pm I'm out the door to the gym for a quick run.

I get home between 7:15 - 7:30, the standing rule in the house is whoever gets home from the gym first has to start dinner. I don't like to cook so I always try to drive slower just to ensure Jason gets home before me. lol! We eat by 8pm.

From 8-9pm were watching whatever we have on DVR only if the Mavs aren't playing (what I really mean is I watch my daily episode of General Hospital). This is the time that Jason decides he's going to get ready for bed. That's right people, my 11 year old watches GH with me. I think he likes the fantasy "Mob World", but in reality I think he likes to make fun of me for watching it. Then after 15 minutes he's bored and goes up stairs and gets ready for bed aka sneaks back on his Xbox.

Then it's 10pm and it's nite nite time. After I convince Ryan to stop whatever nonsense he's doing or talking about (he's just like his momma, he's a night owl),

I kiss him good night and head down stairs.

After messing around down stair for a bit it's 11pm, I let Maverick out one last time, check to make sure all the doors are locked and then at 11:30 I finally get in bed, just to wake up and do it all over again the next day.
