A Day In The Life...

Lets do a day in the life of me...

This morning I heard it again... beep, beep, beep, remember that annoying thing from my last blog, called an alarm clock? It went off at the usual time around 5:15am, kept pressing on the snooze until about 5:30am. At which point I got out of bed and went to get ready for my morning workout (homework #2).
I was in the bathroom brushing my teeth, when the door opened. It was my six year old son, he had wet the bed (he drinks like a fish and has little mishaps every now and then). Anyhow, helped him get cleaned up and sent to continue his sleep with his daddy in our cozy bed. I then removed his bed sheets and tossed it in the machine.
I went down to the basement and got ready for my second homework routine... YIKES, who ever invented push-ups with medicine ball (here we go again, just like them burpees) SUCKS!!! WOW, lots of planks, this way and that way, my elbows were getting rug burn... get your mind out of the gutter people!!!
Completed the workout, ran upstairs to get kids lunches warmed up for their thermos.
As that was happening I started on their breakfast.
Went to wake up the little prince and princess.
Jumped in the shower, got ready for work.
Was just about to take kids to their morning destination, hubby was super-sweet, he offered to drive them (he had a late night at work and was going in a tad later today).
I drove to work... I work in a high school in the special ed. dept., working at times with special needs students.
I got ready for two back to back classes of exercise with my favourite students. We did jogging, sprints, lunges, stairs (also did side squats, just like when we went to La Salle Park) weights, seated wall squats, just to name a few. We were all sweating up a storm and loving it :-)
At the end of the work day, I hurried to pick up the little bundles of joy.
We went home, they started on their homework as I went outside to cut the grass in the backyard.
Before heading to the front yard, I asked the kids if they were done with their homework, yippy, they were, so they joined me outside.
They rode their bikes back and forth on the side walk and into neighbours driveways while I cut the grass in the front, everyone was happy, enjoying the weather.
I came in sneezing (allergy season) took allergy med that will eventually make me drowsy (I only take this as a back up when I cut the grass, I take the non-drowsy med in the morning).
Got dinner going and went for a quick shower.
When I was done, hubby got home and we had dinner.
Had kids take a shower and hung out for a bit.
Sent them off to bed with bear hugs and butterfly kisses :-)
Cut up some oranges and grapefruit to nibble on while watching The Office, Thirty Rock and other Thursday night funnies.
Will hopefully go to bed by 11pm... never happens... but, I'm hopeful :-)

That was a day in the life of me...

It may seem ordinary but its great!!!
Even though it's more or less the same routine on a daily bases, you just never know what lies ahead and that's what makes it exciting and fun :-)
