Your Schedules

In reading MissJones' post about what you do that is "smart", I started thinking about a post from awhile ago where everyone posted their schedules.

I never feel like I have time in my day to do anything, and I am wondering how you ladies "fit it all in". I NEED to start going to the gym.

Would you mind posting your typical week day schedule?

I will start:

7-7:30am: Wake up & get ready for work
7:30: Feed Cats, grab lunch for work
7:40: Commute to work
8:15am - 6:15pm: Work
7:00pm: Home, Feed Cats, cook dinner, clean up, talk on phone to family / friends, watch tv, see DH
11:30pm: Bed

Re: Your Schedules

6am-6:15am: Wake up

6:15-7:30: feed the animals, make beds, lunches, get ready for work.

7:30-8:30: commute to work

5:30: head home from work

*If I go to gym* 6pm-7:30pm: Gym
*If not, I'm home by 6:30pm*

Home by 7:30 the latest usually: cook dinner, walk dog, watch some TV, hang out w/ DH for a bit, straighten up/clean the apartment (if it needs it)

10pm: in bed

ETA: I joined a new gym back in the summer that is on my way home from work, so I don’t have to go out of my way which makes it easier to fit in. I go about 3 days a week then I work out at home doing yoga and weight training on the weekends.

During the Summer, my hubby and I go bike riding for one hour on Saturday and Sunday. During the Fall Months I go to school for four hours on Saturdays starting around 8am meaning I leave the house at 7:30am. During the cold winter months, no workout is in our schedules.

All I can say is I am jealous my hubby works so close to home, his hours are much more manageable than mine
