DOTD Friday - not act of G-d related :)
"What is the very first thing you do when you wake up in the morning and the last thing you do before you go to bed?
When I wake up - pee, then feed the meowing cat to shut her fat face up. Before I go to bed - brush my teeth, then watch TV until I fall asleep.
Not too interesting; we may need another DOTD thread today. A FFF, perhaps?
And also, there are only four more cards left in the box. This is either very happy , if you are tired of these, or very sad, if you enjoyed playing along.
Pam and John

Last thing before bed - Play around on my phone (check email, surf internet) while laying in bed.
AM - hit snooze once or twice, pull Zoey out from under the covers (she usually worms her way under during the night), pee, stumble to the coffee maker and start it up.
PM - check FB on my iPhone, read till sleepy.
am: pee, cuddle in bed with DS before getting up for the day.
pm: same as Pam...brush my teeth, and watch tv in bed until I fall asleep.
Hit snooze until C starts to stir, then I bring him to bed to feed/cuddle him. Then shower, feed the dog and proceed to behave like the Tazmanian Devil as I attempt (and usually fail) to get out of the house on time.
Re: the dwindling cards...there are some daily emails to sign up for if we want to continue the trend. I kind of like it, even though I haven't been able to respond daily. http://www.raisingthequestion.com/ and http://www.experienceproject.com/question-of-the-day
am - (if the alarm wakes me up) turn off alarm, pee, start getting lunch ready, make breakfast
(if Baby Handy wakes me up) go downstairs, nurse, cuddle him, change diaper
pm - watch a little TV, cuddle with hubby, chat with him

We make the rockin' world go 'round.
Morning, try to get O to sleep for just 5 more minutes before we have to get up (unsuccessful most mornings).
Night, let the dogs out then listen to audiobooks.
Run, Shivy, Run
before bed, I check email on my phone or read a chapter of a book.
AM: pee, brush teeth, get dressed, pack up kids lunch and mine if I have some for me, get Maggie up and ready then Molly
PM: I like to read some of my books lately. I have been on a big reading kick. I must be getting some more free time than when the kids were younger or neglecting the cleaning, probably the latter.
AM: pee & then get sprout changed and a drink if the husband hasn't done it already.
PM: snuggle the hubz and then TV. Most nights I fall asleep to the TV.
The very first thing I do in the morning is turn my phone on- I never leave it on all night as I refuse to get woken up by wrong numbers or drunken calls from friends (though the latter hasn't happened in a long time).
The last thing I do before bed is kiss DH goodnight. :-)
Planning Bio
AM; Pee, get dressed, walked the dog.
PM: kiss my husband good night, cuddle with either him (if he's not reading) or the dog.
AM: pee, weigh self, go downstairs to make coffee and check my schedule for the day
PM: kiss O goodnight (he usually falls asleep first) and read in bed for half an hour or so
AM: If it's a morning I work, I hit snooze 80 times, get dressed, make tea, feed the cat, let the dog out. I guess that's not all the first thing but it's all pretty close.
If it's a morning I'm off work, I go make tea or goof off on the computer while DS still sleeps.
PM: check email/fb on iphone, snuggle with DH
Weekday Morning: pee, jump in the shower to start getting ready
Weekend morning: pee, come downstairs to feed the dog & let her out, then either veg on the couch with my computer or go back up to bed
Weekday PM: read and/or check Facebook/Twitter on my phone (DH is still @ work when I go to bed)
Weekend PM: cuddle with DH if he goes to bed at the same time, or same as weekdays if he stays up
