5am - A loud blaring, annoying noise wakes me from my peaceful sleep. I roll over and groan as I get out of bed. Hurry, hurry, hurry into the shower so I can have breakfast before I have to wake the girls. This morning needed an extra large cup of coffee. I tried not to trip over the dog as I left the bedroom (husband sleeping peacefully, grr), and I managed to make it in one piece.
6:15am - Time to wake the kiddos. Elissa was already up, though how that can be I have no idea because she was up extra late last night talking though some stuff about school. So, I go to wake Kaity. There was a lot of groaning, and I do mean A LOT. "Mommy, it's dark, why do I have to get up?!!?!?!" "Because you have school, honey," I replied. There was lots of grumbling after that.
6:20 - Everyone's downstairs, and it's breakfast time. We're out of Fruit Loops, Cheerios, and anything that really sounds good to Elissa. She setted for Lucky Charms, Kaity's cereal, because it was either that or toast. Everyone's dressed, hair brushed, and eating.
6:40 - Time for me to head out the door. I kiss the kids goodbye, as well as my still sleeping hubby. Kaity chases me down for "one last kiss," as usual.
7:00 - I arrive at school and begin my day. I have thirty precious minutes to organize myself, put in copy orders, answer emails, and take care of any other business. I work my best early in the morning and can get lots done.
7:30 - I greet everyone with a smile on my face, and begin their day the right way.
11:00 - Lunch time. I brought yogurt today, but breakfast didn't last so I decide to buy pizza from the cafeteria. It tastes much better than my yogurt!
11:25 - Debate about whether or not to go outside. Go check it out, and decide yes!
3:00 - Send everyone home, all's quiet at work again. I look at my desk, and think maybe a tornado has hit my room while I was away! I clean up the tornado, and head out the door at 3:45.
4:00 - Pick up Elissa and Kaitlin. Find out Elissa had a great day at school and did not have to go to monitor during recess like she thought she would (whew!), and Kaity is Star Student next week! She's excited, I groan because that means we have to put together a poster over the weekend.
4:30 - Get on the computer, think about not doing anything productive!
Still on my list for this evening: Play with the kids, cook dinner, play with the kids some more, spend time with my hubby, and wait for my parents to arrive from Colorado. I brought a ton of work home for the weekend, but that will have to wait until tomorrow!
