Well let me see today I woke up and got up five munchkins to get ready for the bus helped them get everything together and then hopped onto the lot while I waited for the bus to get here. Once the 8:16 rolled around I went out with the kids and waited on the porch for the bus. while waiting I shoveled the driveway and got rid of some of the ice and snow in it. then the kids got on the bus I came in here for about 15minutes and answered some discussion then went and took my bath and now I'm answering discussion and having a couple oranges... :) Ok and the obvious I wrote this one. LOL!!
So how did you spend your waking hours?

I was abruptly awoken out of a dream about the technicalities of computer mechanics by an acidic burp...not the reflux type which I usually have, fortunately. I quickly rolled to reach into the drawer where I keep my anti-acid tablets then rolled back to first switch on the light because the clock was showing 4 something and I couldn't see what I was doing. I sat for a bit as I chewed my tablets and my thoughts went to my finances. I went to pee then into the office to grab my budget. Then I made coffee, sat and played with the numbers for a while then figured I was spending way more than I could afford, noticed it is 5:05 am and decided - I'm here now so I might as well stay - so I switched the computer on....it, too, had been dozing. I hope to do a big chunk of stuff online then go and tackle some whipper-snippering in the garden before it becomes too hot.

I woke up feeling good this morning. Turned on the telly to check the news to see whether the schools were reopened today and they were, but starting two hours late. I let my son sleep in another half an hour then got him up and ready for school. Almost slipped on our way to the bus stop but made it without any falls.
Got a call from a friend I had not heard in a while and she was on her way to the mall by our home and asked if I wanted to tag along with her and her 8 mth yr old baby. We spent most of the day looking at sales and browsing the stores and then treated ourselves to a starbucks coffee and muffin. After all that browsing we only bought coffee and food :)
Then we waited for my son afterschool and she dropped us off home. Spent the rest of the afternoon in mylot.

You sound just as busy as me in the mornings. This morning I got uo at 7 am, and took a shower. Then got my two kids and husband up. Of course I had to help them get ready for school and daycare, fix them breakfast, make sure the oldest one had her homework done, and make sure she is out the door to the bus stop by 7:45am. As you can imagine, we are very busy in the mornings. I have to leave by 7:50 to get the youngest one to day care, and get myself to work by 8:30. Now I am working. I had lunch, Tuna sandwich, YUM. Oranges are great. Busy Busy!

I got up around 9:00 in the morning which is really early for me. Then I came to the computer to look up how much money I made here yesterday [which was really disappointing because I only made $1.41 for 100 post]. Then I ate breakfast and watched part of a movie. I called the people to pay my assistants. They had some issues so that got dealt with. Since then I have been on the computer. I'm aiming to make pay out but I'm not sure I'm going to as I have $2.33 to go. After my day assistant leaves I will probably pick out more discussions and then wait for my evening assistant to help me type. I would like to type a few on my own as well.

I started today about an hour too late. Usually we wake up about 10 on Thursdays because we have some late classes. It gives us a bit of time to sleep in and not have to worry about rushing to get places. Well, after our alarm went off, it was turned off and we fell back to sleep. I woke up about 10 minutes before we really should have been leaving to get lunch. However, we did manage to get ready and leave about 11:30. It didn't really make us that late or anything but it really was an inconvenience. After we ate lunch, we went our separate ways for classes. I went to a Curriculum and Instruction class where we talked about using creativity in the classroom. I got out of class at 3:30 where I came back here to relax a bit before my long evening alone.

I had to get up five kids to get them ready for school, too. Three of them are under ten, the other two are teens. I had to get my fiance up for work, too. Then, I started my work and housework routine. By 9am, I was already exhausted. LOL

LOL! I have five that are 10 and under. My oldest is actually 10 and requires more motivation then a snail would. LOL!!! I swear one of these mornings she is going to get a ten gallon bucket of cold water dumped on her. LOL!! But I know what you mean .. My other half had off today and even when he's not off he does the 3-11 shift so I don't have to wakey him that early. LOL!!!

I had two to take to school this morning, but then there is a little one to get ready who is not at school yet. I had to do a bit of shopping after I had taken them to school, then I came home and unpacked and did 20 minutes on a keep fit dvd, 20 mins was all i could manage before collapsing!! Then I had to change three of the kids beddings, then it was lunch time and hubby came home for his lunch and then I had to wash up and clean up and now I have just had time to answer one discussion and now I have to go back down to school to fetch my boys!!!

Well, i woke up to my boyfriend calling me at 9 am, telling me he doesn't have school and asking me to meet him. I complained and said I didnt want to since there was so much snow. After we got off the phone I decided just to get ready and go meet him. It took like 10 or 15 minutes, so I figured he would've been about 15 minutes from my house. So I walked to where half way from my house to his school was. He wasn't there, so I kept walking. He had only got about 3 minutes from his school. So we walked back. Went to country style, and ate some breakfast and talked for an hour and a half. Eventually we walked back to my house and laid in bed. Now I'm on here, and he's asleep.

Pretty much of the early morning hours in this part of the globe. Morning was spent with coffee down my throat and paper's and a diary..planning my life for the next couple of months on aims and goals which should have been done before the year ended. I guess I make up to myself that the planning has come around since I'm rather playful...so the day has been pretty much more entertained since the holidays are going to end before the semester starts for us next week. Have fun.
Princess.
