Holli has started a meme asking people to share a day in their life.
When all the planets are aligned and no one is sick and there aren't tons of errands to do, this is what a typical day looks like for me...
5:45am
Our day starts early for school.
6:45 – 7:45 am
School bus picks up Kevvy and I drive Emily and Jesse to school.
8:00am – 9am
My staple breakfast: Shredded Wheat
I love it warmed in the microwave for 1 minute. YUM.
Usually I catch up on one tivo recorded show (ie: Tudors, Top Chef, Last Restaurant Standing)
Write emails, read or write blog posts.
10:00 – 11:00 exercise
Usually mon, wed, Friday I go for a 3 to 4 mile jog.
Otherwise I’m tidying and catching up on dishes/laundry.
If I'm on a tight deadline, the chores wait and I get straight to illo work and fit it in later.
11:00am – 2:00 pm
WORK
check email
WORK
Check email
WORK
I really enjoy listening to music while I work so I usually have Itunes playing on the computer most days.
If the workload is quiet, I like to take myself to a movie once a week.
2:15pm – 4:00pm
Kids start arriving home. Jesse babysits Kevvy while I pick up Emily. We head over to the grocery store to pick up dinner ingredients and afternoon snack.
Snack: Starbucks
We have a starbucks in our Albertsons. NICE!
My "regular" is a tall , peppermint white choc mocha.
4:00pm – 6:00 pm
Multi- task
work, email, spend time with kids
6:00pm – 7:00pm
Feed the doggies
Emily and I cook dinner listening to Ipod set up in kitchen. We've been eating a lot of take out while "daddy's" been away,though. (He's on military duty away for 2 months)
Jesse’s playing on his xbox.
Kevvy’s watching tv.
We eat dinner together.
Clean up dishes
7:00pm- 8:00pm
My cuddle time on couch with Kevvy . He’s been in his wheelchair all day so time on the couch reading books is his favorite. (For new readers, Kev is 13yrs with severe cerebral palsy)
HIs all time favorite book is still…
Kipper ABC’s
Bath for Kevvy
8:00 pm
Bedtime for Kevvy.
Jess and Em stay up later with me.
8:00 to 10:00pm
TV time with kids.. Our favorite night is Tuesday and Thursday. Hell’s Kitchen, American Idol, The Office.
I take a bath and read for 15-20 minutes.
Reading "LIfe of Pi" right now.
10:00 pm
Yawn yawn, hug hug, say our “I love’s you’s”
….Snore.
If you're still reading, I'll tag...

Hi Roz!
Thanks for the tag but I am leaving for vacation in a couple days and have an insane to do list so hopefully I'll remember when I get back on the 26th...

Thanks, Roz! I'm going to be so embarassed about my day since I don't have kids or even a dog to take care of! You are a super woman indeed! :-) Thanks for the tag!
