RULES

  1. Be respectful: no harassment, hate speech, bigotry, and/or trolling.
  2. Encourage conversation in your OP. This means including heavily implicative subject matter when you can and also engaging in your thread when possible.
  3. Avoid controversial topics (e.g. politics or societal debates).
  4. Stay calm: Don’t post angry or to vent or complain. We are a place where everyone can forget about their everyday or not so everyday worries for a moment. Venting, complaining, or posting from a place of anger or resentment doesn't fit the atmosphere we try to foster at all. Feel free to post those on [email protected]
  5. Keep it clean and SFW
  6. No solicitation such as ads, promotional content, spam, surveys etc.

On an ideal (working) morning if be up a couple of hours before I need to leave the house to bathe, make breakfast and something for lunch, clean the kitchen a little (which is my domain in the house), sit and watch TV or read for a bit, then leave with plenty of time to get to work.

Sometimes I manage this.

Otherwise it's snooze the alarm a few times, get out of bed, shower, make some toast quickly, lob some food at the cats and leave a little later than ideal, and get to work just in time.

Unfortunately my partner works from home and gets up later than me so my comfy bed has a chronic cuddler in it, and she's normally surrounded by our cats too so my bed is a wonderful nest that's difficult to crawl out from.

  1. Get four kids out of bed
  2. Feed them
  3. Clothe them
  4. Make them lunch
  5. Drive them to school/daycare
  6. Return back home to unwind in my home office, scratch balls, and enjoy the peace and quiet

Same, except step 6 is to drive to work and grind for 8 hours. I dread opening emails on Monday morning.

I honestly don't know how you do it

It takes me most of the morning 😆 I’m an afternoon / evening person, the morning is for listening to the birds and looking out the window while lazily responding to messages and doing the easy busywork ; so it’s all out of the way for the real work of the afternoon.

I need a slow and peaceful morning so I can ramp up.

Get woken up by family, told it’s my turn to handle child, say I was told I can sleep in, fight, regret not sleeping earlier, repeat?, profit 🤑
