Let's do "a day in the life of"

[sequins]

I love seeing how people schedule their days! I think it also helps with tweaking our own routines. I'm not working or in school at the moment, so it's pretty relaxed (for the next 2 weeks at least lol).

7.30 ish - wake-up, brush and shower
8 - breakfast for me, kid and H. Oatmeal for me, granola for the kid and smoothie for the H. Start the process of waking the kid up. H takes the dog out.
8.30 - ish - start making and packing lunch. 
9 - drop the kid in preschool, H leaves for work.
10ish - get back home and respond to emails and work on the paper revisions.
12 - Lunch. I make a quick sandwich or wrap. Watch something on youtube (usually GoT theories or deep dives, lol)
1-3 - Household related errands/ PT appointments.
3 - back home and take the dog on a long walk.
4ish - back home and do a quick workout. Whatever's on youtube that's very low impact.
4.30 - go to pick up the kid.
6 - come home, give her a quick shower and let her play while I make dinner for her.
6.30 - hangout with the kid while she eats and call family on video.
7.30 - H comes home and depending on whether he had food at his meetings, I'll make dinner. H takes the dog out again.
8.00 - eat and clean up the kitchen counters. H will do the dishes later. 
8.30 - H should have gotten the kid to brush by then, so I take her and get her to sleep while he goes and decompresses a bit.
9.30 - Hopefully kid's asleep by now and I watch something on Netflix while H is usually catching up on work. 
11.00 - 12.00 - sleep at some point. H takes the dog out one more time and then lights out.

[isabel]

Hmmmm this is interesting. I'll play, but mostly looking forward to reading responses.

4:50am - First alarm goes off, I hit snooze
5:15am - Will myself out of bed for the day, shower (if necessary), throw on clothes, brush teeth, run a brush through my hair, grab previously packed breakfast and lunch
5:30am - Leave for work
6:00am -Arrive at work
6:00am-4:00pm - Work or screw around on GBCN, usually a lot of both (I eat lunch in there somewhere, often at my desk, sometimes I take an actual break and go eat outside or have lunch with a friend)
4:00pm-Leave work to pick up kids
5:00pm - Arrive at daycare
5:15pm - Finally leave daycare to head home
5:23pm - Arrive home (thank fucking God this is my life now. This used to be more like a 5:45-6:00pm arrival because of how far away we lived.)
5:30pm - After shedding coats, shoes, etc. I start throwing together dinner for the kids
5:40pm -While they eat dinner, I unpack their lunch boxes, put previously packed lunches in their bags (I do 3 days worth of lunches on Sunday, then 2 more days on Wednesday night), start unloading the dishwasher
6:00pm - DH arrives home and starts helping with kitchen stuff (unloading/loading the dishwasher, general clean up)
6:15pm - Since it's summer, we head out for a walk to the park and let the kids play for a bit
6:40pm - Head home
6:45 - Start baths/bedtime (DH and I generally each take a kid and swap every other night)
7:30pm - Lights out for the boys
7:35pm - Heat up leftovers from whatever I made on the weekend to eat during the week and collapse on the couch with my dinner
7:40-8:30pm - Browse the internet or watch a show
8:45pm - Head upstairs to get ready for bed and read (I may shower here if I didn't in the morning)
9:30pm - Lights out

It should be noted that this is an ideal day. It's not infrequent that we all go to bed a bit later or baths get skipped to make up for lost time somewhere in there.

eta: Also of note, on Monday night, I throw a load of towels in the wash, dry them, and fold while I'm relaxing. Same thing for kids clothes (Tuesday, put away on Wednesday) and our clothes (Thursday, put away on Friday). I barely work on Friday, so I change sheets then and wash them. Grocery shopping (usually pickup) gets done Friday as well. Sunday is meal prep where I get 3 days worth of lunches ready for the kids and prep two different meals for DH and I to eat throughout the week.

Whoa!! That's a long work day. Do you have fridays off at least? I like that you guys go outside in the evenings. We should also try to incorporate that in our schedule.

Pretty much. I work 6a-4p Monday through Thursday and 6a-10a on Friday. But if I'm being honest, I usually don't roll out of bed until 6:30 on Friday, I check my email, then start helping with the kids. I usually take them to school and am back home in time for an 8:30 call with my team. That usually ends at 9:30 and then I sign off for the day. So I pretty much only "work" during that hour long call and I'm usually on mute getting stuff done around the house while I'm on it.

I really love my schedule, but mornings are definitely hard.

[madringal]

We play on the school playground for 30-45 minutes then go to his activity for the day.
6 pm-ish - usually home with DS2 so I cook dinner while he hangs out and plays or watches tv.
Post dinner DS1 does homework, DS2 plays, I clean up the house and finish laundry etc. A few times a month I have evening meetings.

[5thofjuly]

I'm a professor, but I do more administration than teaching. My work is weird. I tend to work in intermittent bursts putting in 50-60 hours one week and then 20 or 30 the next. I don't really have a typical day because my schedule is irregular, but I'd say the most common day for me looks like:

5:15- kiss DH goodbye, let the dog out, and go back to bed
9- wake up and surf the internet while trying to become fully human
9:30-10:30- combination of answering emails and drinking a diet coke (again---that fully human thing)
10:30-12:00- work out and shower. I'm also checking and responding to emails between sets. On non-workout days this is usually course prep time or I run errands. I email at the deli counter.
12:00-1:00- get ready, eat, and do small tasks for work (think spreadsheets or making student advising plans)
1:00-4:00- some variation of meetings, research, and teaching
4:00-7:00- work on a more substantive task (like prepping New Faculty Orientation or grading papers) while prepping dinner and doing laundry
7:00-9:00- hang out with DH
9:00-10:00- answer emails, grade papers if I'm teaching
10:00-1:00- read for fun, watch crappy TV, relax
1:00- bedtime!

I clicklist all my groceries and I have a robot vacuum going in different rooms on different days. DS has therapy Wednesday evening and I have therapy Thursday at lunchtime.

Rinse and repeat. I clearly live a very boring life.

This is making me feel like I really should wake up earlier to work out. All you people with your kids can manage it, so I should be able to.

But, I also really love my 8 - 9 hours of sleep. lol
