Hello everyone! I was just wondering how many-of you have a certeain morning routine that you follow each morning?Or maybe a night routine that you follow each night before bed? And, is Mylot involved in your routine?
I do, at least in the morning. Every morning I wake up fairly early between 4:00-5:30am. Then I use bathroom,brush teeth,etc.I go make a fresh cup of coffee,then to Mylot I go until my daughter wakes up.I just love starting my day so peacefully it really helps me get the day off on the right foot. How about you?

In the morning I get up between 7:45 -8:00 a.m. and get my daughter up as well, though she usually gets me up or is already in bed with me. I change her diaper and get her dressed for daycare. We go downstairs and I make her breakfast and then I take a shower. We go upstairs and I get dressed, brush my hair, do last seconds things I forgot to do during the morning then we are out the door by 8:30. At night time I pick her up from daycare at 4:45, go home, play, eat dinner, go to park, bath, snack, story, bed. Mylot isn't involved cause I can only get on at work.

I have a routine for the whole day just about.. In the morning I get up around 6 am. Hubby is already gone to work, so I clean up his mess from getting ready for work a little. I take a shower and then I have a glass or two of iced tea while I start laundry and clean up a little more and then I sit and read while I drink my tea.
Around 8 I start breakfast for the kids as they start waking up (although my son is normally already up). Around 8:30 if they arent up I wake up the 2 oldest girls and then by 9:00 the babes to get them feed and at this time I get the computer going to check the weather. I then do more laundry as I clean up the breakfast table. I clean and do the net.
Around noon I make lunch and feed everyone then they normally go outside to play while I clean up after lunch. Then I either do more on the net and clean or I go out and do yardwork or wood. Around 1 I get out whatever meat needs dethawed for supper
Around 2 I start thinking more about supper and start figuring out all that we will have. Around 4 hubby comes in and he sits and we talk while I cook. We eat around 5 or so, we all eat together and after I come in here and work on emails and such while the kids rinse and stack dishes. I then go do the real cleanup. After that is done I come in here and do more on the net.
In between all this I have my computer and mylots and a few other places up so that I can post when I take a break. Around midnight I start getting tired so I clean up a little and read at least a chapter in my book then it is nighty night and then we start over when I wake up. I know some think this is boring but watching the little ones play and giving me hugs makes it all worth it!

Im glad to know that someone else shares my life. My friends admire me but they dont get why I do what I do. They do things differently and Im find by that and I know we all have our different styles and homelives. They think I should go out more and do more for me. I try to explain this is for me, it is my life, my family.
There are rough times sure but the good outweighes that. Thanks for the best response!

We almost have the same routine. I wake up at around 5 to 5:30 am. I take coffee and in a few minutes take shower. Afterwhich I brush my teeth and wear clothes for work. In the evening, I after taking dinner and the usual routine of brushing my teeth, I go directly to my laptop and so some online thing and at the same time watch cable movies.

In the morning, I shower, dress, have a bowl of cereal or toast and have my prayer time. At night, I floss & brush my teeth, scoop my cats' litter box, go to the bathroom, then have some prayer time before I go to sleep.

I am also like you I guess in starting the day peacefully. If the day is started peacefully then all day you feel so fresh and relaxed. I wake up 6:00 A.M daily. Go to washroom, brush teeth, take a bath etc. as I have to get ready for work and leave home by 8:00 A.M and reach work by 8:30 A.M. From 7:00 A.M to 8:00 A.M, I have breakfast, read newspaper and then go to work. This routine is same every day 6 days a week excluding Sunday.

My morning routine is usually doing some exercise before breakfast. I do that so that I'll be some sort of warmed up before starting anything.

My "morning" starts rather late in the day because I work nights. I get up around 11AM. I get around and get myself Something to eat and drink. Then I will play on my computer until around 1 PM. Mylot and other sites. I then get ready for work where I go in at 2PM. I work until 10 PM. Then I will either spend time on the computer or watch television until around 2 AM. I go to bed and start my day all over again!

I am a working mom, so my daily routine varies. It's different on weekdays and weekends. I am working night shift. My shift is 9pm-6am. When I get off from work, I usually arrive at home around 730am. I don't cook breakfast. I just buy food on my way home. Coz when I arrive at home my husband and son are waiting for me and for the food, lol! I'll do the household chores. And spend some time with my son. After lunch, around 1pm I'll put my son to sleep so I could sleep as well. When my son is awake already, I'll play with him for a couple of minutes and I'll get myself back to sleep. I'll wake up around 630pm to prepare the dinner and get myself ready for work.
On weekends, it's quite different. I'll wake up around 7am and I'll cook the food for breakfast. After that, my husband and I will do the laundry. We'll spend some time together. Watch dvd together. On Sundays,we go to church early in the morning and afterwards, we'll go to the mall.
That's my daily routine, so far. Have a good day!

Wake daily between 6:15-6:30 am. Fresh up. Spend some time on net to know the news. Leave for office exactly at 7:45. Return from office between 5:00-7:00 PM. Fresh up again. Spend rest of the time from 7:00-12:00 browsing. Sleep at 12:00. Same routine all the days except weekly offs when everything except freshenup and go to office . I am habituated to routine these days
