    shr3dded has the best morning description EVER !! my morning begins with a nice ice cold glass of shakeology !! and then running 4 kids to 4 different stops ALL before work !
  • Listen to dogs wake up and run around house between 5 and 5:30 am
    Try to fall back asleep until alarm goes off at 6
    Trip over said dogs on way to bathroom
    Take shower with bf (you know- to save water and all :bigsmile: )
    Trip over dogs on way to get dressed
    *kitten* I'm running late...again
    Throw on clothes
    Feed dogs
    Take dogs out
    Scream at dogs repeatedly to get back in the house so I can finally leave for work
    Throw whatever healthy food I can find into work bag
    Kiss BF goodbye
    Hope there aren't any cops on way to work

    Each and every day...

    Up at 4:40a with the wife. Get our coffee's ready and we sit for 15 minutes or so to wake up. She goes up to get ready and I get the boys up and ready for school. I get them fed and then get both my wife's and my food ready for the day. I get her out the door by 6am and then finish up with the boys and get my stuff ready to go. Drop the kids of at school then head into work by 7:30a.

    That's a typical morning.

    3:52 - Wake up (alarm is set to 4:30 but it NEVER makes it because I LOVE NEW DAYS!)

    Harsh my boner for 10 min until it's possible to take a leak

    Brush teeth, clean out eye boogers, water my hair for styling later

    Take a 30 min dump (it's actually 2 min but I spend the rest of the time vigorously cleaning my *kitten* with wet wipes because I'm gonna be sitting on a lot of gym equipment and god forbid I leave it smelling like doodoo)

    Style hair for 20 min

    Carefully pick out my gym outfit and spray it with some cucumber breeze scented crap as a secondary line of defense after the wet wipes

    Re-style hair because I put a tight *kitten* compression shirt on that messed it up

    Chug 40 oz. of water

    Go to Youtube and full screen a chick (muse) doing yoga while I gather my keys, HRM, phone, and pack my bag

    Walk out of my building blabbering nonsense in the halls like, "YEEEEEEEP! HO! GET IT TIME! %%%% WIT ME! WOO! AYE! AYE! BOUT TO RUN THIS &&&&! CMON! GIT IT GIT GIT IT"

    -Get dressed, moisturize, and (sometimes) properly blowdry my bangs
    -Fill up water bottle and start drinking
