farquah 0 Posted September 26, 2008 Share Posted September 26, 2008 Recently my work has unfortunately become a little more office orientated and I have found myself coming in each mornign and pretty much doing exactly the same things until about 12p.m. Something like this: turn coffee machine and radio on turn PC on Make coffee Check work email Check personal email Read online newspaper Check SJ Forums Start to respond to work emails/ start work! How about you guys? Similar routines or change day by day? I feel I am getting stuck in a bit of an office rut!! Link to post Share on other sites

JA2340 16 Posted September 26, 2008 Share Posted September 26, 2008 That'd be before getting the feet out of bed? Glad I don't share a bed with you! Link to post Share on other sites
scouser 4 Posted September 26, 2008 Share Posted September 26, 2008 Turn on the tv rather than the radio. Once I'm in work though check out the web quickly as I download emails. Link to post Share on other sites
JA2340 16 Posted September 26, 2008 Share Posted September 26, 2008 Radio comes on as alarm, listen to news and weather forecast, then ease out of bed, dress (sort of), ablutions, TV, breakfast, dress for work and drive 20 minutes. Unpack lappy, switch on, make coffee, wait for lappy to awaken, log on to network, wait (im)patiently, drink coffee meanwhile. Then, the business of the day can begin - read emails, respond, surf a bit, read more emails, respond - you get the picture!! then go home!!! Link to post Share on other sites
Mini Me Tarzan 0 Posted September 26, 2008 Share Posted September 26, 2008 Wake up when I hear my mum in the kitchen. Shout that I am hungry and jump up and down on my bed until my mum comes. Do a wee on the potty. Help my mum to put my clothes and a new nappy on. Eat my breakfast and drink some milk while my mum gets ready for work. Sit on my mum's lap and watch TV while taking my nebulizer asthma medicine. Go downstairs to watch the bin men put the rubbish in the truck. Wave bye-bye to the bin men. Meet my nanna or go to school depending on the day. Give my mum a goodbye kiss and cuddle. Start my day's play. Link to post Share on other sites
grungy-gonads 54 Posted September 26, 2008 Share Posted September 26, 2008 That sounds similar to my routine as well Mini Me. (Well apart from the mum and dad bits). Link to post Share on other sites
1 4 Posted September 26, 2008 Share Posted September 26, 2008 I always put the news on when I get downstairs. CNN is usually doing election stuff at the moment between 7-8am. Link to post Share on other sites
HelperElfMissy 42 Posted September 26, 2008 Share Posted September 26, 2008 Routines are good. Get more done if you have a routine. I could not survive without some kinds of routines and multitasking. In the morning first things I do is get all the kids up and getting ready for school, put the breakfast on for them, and get thier lunches sorted. Then I go back upstairs with a coffee and check my emails, ABC news - make sure my world and the world at large are as they should be. Often times check the weather so the kids leave the house with appropriate sun protection/rain gear. See kids off to school and then get on with my day - bit more rushed than that when I have to be at work too - but similar routine. Kids are on school holidays for the next two weeks and I only have to go to work one day in that time - so I am hoping to set up a NEW routine seeing as there is no morning rush. I want to get up have a coffee and get straight into half hour weight training and half hour cardio - my back has been shite this past couple of weeks, and I have had trouble with my knee's and hands (need surgery on my left hand but putting it off) - so I am hoping a strict fitness regime might sort things a bit. I hope to top the end the day with a bit more cardio and a swim (if there is any sun!) Link to post Share on other sites

big-will 7 Posted September 27, 2008 Share Posted September 27, 2008 A similar kind of routine, minus the wildlife. And the run. Don't you just hate it when it gets to the work bit. Link to post Share on other sites
HeatherLocklearRocks 1 Posted September 27, 2008 Share Posted September 27, 2008 I usually start the day in a bit of a mood shouting and moaning at my alarm clock that insists on waking me up too early! After that its a bit of a rush and I am usually at work just in time (a Japanese concept, right? ha) and have to get stuck in straight away. Not much time for breakfast.

JA2340 16 Posted September 28, 2008 Share Posted September 28, 2008 But breakfast is the most important meal of the day!! Shame on you! Link to post Share on other sites
