Re: what is your morning routine?
alarm goes off at 6:10am, I hit the snooze, it goes off 8 minutes later, hit snooze again, goes off 8 minutes later.....get up, take a shower, get dressed (thankfully it's nothing special for my job!), walk the dog (hopefully it's 6:50-7 am) as the sun rises. Eat a bowl of cereal if I'm hungry and hopefully DH is now in the shower, go to work by 8am, sometimes 7:30am

Re: what is your morning routine?
I get up at 7, shower, get dressed, grab something to read on the train, get on the subway at 8, get off at 8:45, go to the deli for coffee and a banana, or bagel, or something, then get to work at 9.
ed: I would rather sleep the extra half hour than eat breakfast at home, or exercise.

Re: what is your morning routine?
my alarm goes off at 6:15...DH gets up, gets ready, and leaves for work. I go back to sleep until 7:20, get up and shower, get dressed, makeup and hair, get into the car at 8:20, drive to work. Same thing every day. *sigh*

6:30 wake up to my cat licking my face and laying on my head. 6:40 alarm goes off and I snooze till 7. I get up, get dressed, feed the cat and out the door and walk to the LIRR at 7:45. From Penn take the subway to my office...get in and read LIW and eat my cereal!
DH is sleeping through this routine. He gets up at 8:00 and is out the door at 8:10!

Re: what is your morning routine?
Mine might be worse. I have to get two sleepy kids up too.
DH has his alarm set for 5:00 he leaves I fall asleep slightly my alarm goes off at 6:30 hit snooze. 10 minutes later I get up go into kids room say wake up go to the bathroom got to the kids room go set the table go to kids room. Take quick shower get dresssed go to kids room SCREAM ( I turn into the mommy monster) get kids out of bed dress them or at least make sure they are dressed and feed them while they attempt to get dressed I do hair and makeup. Scream some more since they are not far enough along. The Nanny comes I start to scream that we are late. Get one out the door while the other cries as I leave (talk about heart breaking. I hate leaving when they cry)
They both have to be in school at 8:20 in the same school. One just wants to be with his friends for breakfast. Even though he eats at home. I rush him so he sees I try and be nice but he sees it as I am being mean and getting him up to early or putting him to bed to early. Just another typical day at my house

Re: what is your morning routine?
My alarm goes off at 6AM. I snooze until 7.. sometimes 7:15.. I finally get out of bed and jump in a hot shower. I then floss, rinse w. mouthwash and then brush my teeth. I get dressed, dry my hair, put make up on and wait for FH call to leave. We drive to work together... usually out of the house by 8:15.

i'm more of a morning person so if i don't exercise then i'm not doing it..and i have this silly thing in my head for years that if you eat within the first 1/2 hour of getting up it increases your metabolism for the day so i eat right away..just some of my neuroses showing..

Re: what is your morning routine?
Oy - my alarm goes off at 6:30, I get up - get in the shower. When I come out - I get my lunch and stuff ready for work,put my makeup on, then I get my sons lunch ready - tell him to get up, get his clothes together - by this time 7:00 - my DH had better be in the shower or else he's not getting one, because my son goes in there (we have 1 bathroom)-then I get dressed. Then we are all out the door by 7:30. Nobody gets breakfast in the morning! But I do somehow manage to chug 2 cups of coffee!!! My son gets sent next door to his grandpa's where he eats and gets the bus by 8:30. My Dh and I have to be at work by 8:00.

Re: what is your morning routine?
Alarm goes off at 5:20AM. Hit snooze. Goes off again at 5:30AM Hit snooze. Harder. Goes off again at 5:40. So I get up.
Shower. By the end of the shower I am awake -- mostly. Find my robe. Start coffee pot. Let the dog out. Make lunches for my DH and daughter. Pack frozen Weightwtchers for me. Get dressed. Pour coffee into travel cup. Poke DH to wake him up slightly or he'll sleep through his alarm at 6:45. Make sure I have office security pass and my keys and my lunch. Kiss daughter on my way out the door. It is now 630am and I have to be there at 7am. (sigh)

Re: what is your morning routine?
I am SOOOOOO bad in the morning (I should preface with the fact that I’m an evening shower person – too much hair to dry)
-Jim wakes me up around 6:45am-6:55am (depends how lazy I feel) -He picks me up and literally pulls me out of bed -He puts a toothbrush and toothpaste in my hand and sends me out the door. -When I come back he has my hair brush out so I start handling the mess I call my hair -While I brush my hair, he’s begun to iron out my clothes for the day. (he picks what I wear) -I watch the Know before you Go channel checking out the weather (train delays NEVER show up) -When I’m done pulling my hair back I start getting dress in whatever’s he done ironing -While I get dressed, he puts my cellphone in my bag and makes sure I have a train book, soda, etc. -We’re out the door by 7:12am the latest for my 7:24am train or 7:20 for my 7:33am train.
Jim wakes up around 6am I think? Something god awful early. He showers and does his hair (sigh) then comes back down and cuddles with me while he waits for the time to wake me up. He takes me to work in Jeans & T-shirt and if I take the 7:24 train he has time to feed the cat, watch some TV (relax) and still get dressed and make it to work before 9am. If I take the 7:33am train he has time only to feed the cat. I guess he leaves around 8am or so? I’m getting to Penn Station by the time he LEAVES for work!!!
I get to work about 8:20am to 8:45am depending on the train I take and the subways.
I wish I worked in the Island!!

Re: what is your morning routine?
I'm sick of my morning routine too!
Alarm goes off at 4:45.... hit snooze - goes off again around 5:15. Get out of bed, put the coffee pot on, and take a shower. Go upstairs at 5:25 - 5:30 and cuddle in bed with DH until he wakes up at 5:30 -5:35. Put the water on for his shower, dry my hair, get dressed, grab travel mug, and we're out the door at 5:50. I usually get to work at 8:00am. I HATE working in the city!!!!

I second the 'I hate working in NYC' notion!!
Here's my morning, until we get our doggie anyway!
7:00 - alarm goes off, reset it for another 15 minutes of sleep.
7:15 alarm goes off again - rush to shower, brush teeth, throw hair in bun, find clothes to wear, get dressed and out the door by 7:40
7:55 - latest train I can take to Penn that gets me to work around 9-ish.
8:45 - arrive in Penn, wrestle with the million other people trying to get on the 1 uptown to work.
9:00 (give or take a few minutes) at my desk with coffee in hand reading the recent LIW posts :)
I DETEST waking up early in the mornings!!! When I'm a world-famous writer, it will be a mortal sin to be out of bed before 10!!!!!
