Morning Routine
Weekdays, I get up at (or usually a bit before) 6 and let the dogs out while I get their breakfast together. I let them back in and while they're eating, I pack my breakfast and lunch for the day. I sit down at the computer for a few minutes to check email and news, and then shower and dress. I'm usually out the door by 7. Weekends are similar, except that I don't have to pack breakfast or lunch. Sometimes I'll go ahead and eat breakfast while checking email and news, and then crawl back into bed for a couple more hours of sleep.
