What is your morning routine?
From the time you get up until the time you are out the door (or start your day at home), what do you do?
--Alarm goes off about 5:10ish, snooze until 5:30 (reset, not snooze.)
--Bathroom ? potty, brush my teeth, wash my face, wet my hair sometimes depending how bad my bed head is. LOL
--Bedroom ? mix moisturizer w/foundation & apply, figure out clothes to wear, spray hair if I didn?t wet it already. Get dressed.
--Bedroom ? do hair (flat iron), finish makeup (eye concealer, bronzer/blush on cheeks, loose powder, curl eyelashes, sometimes line eyes, mascara).
6:15-6:20 ? gotta be done. Turn on the radio for Xena. LOL
6:20-6:30 ? Head upstairs, put together coffee, bag up food for the day (from fridge), take Xena out, give Xena her pill. Give her Kong and take her food & treat downstairs.
6:30 ? Out the door.

My routine is the same every morning too. Right down to Xena whining at me if it's past 6:16 and I'm not turning off the TV, turning on her radio and heading upstairs! LOL
I do the same thing every morning too. Even on the weekends when I get out of the shower my routine is still the same in the bathroom. Otherwise I find myself forgetting something like deodorant! LOL!
