A Day in the Life of 5th Sister

4:00 am: Mr. Sister's alarm goes off at "wake the dead" decibles

4:15 am: Can't get back to sleep. Might as well go pee.

4:30 am: Tossing and turning. No sleep for the weary.

4:45 am: Give up. Get out of bed and pull on some jeans. Grab a cup of coffee that Mr. Sister has already made (thanks hon!).

5:00 am: Walk the dog. Feed the dog. Love the dog.

5:30 am: Catch up on blogs, email.

6:30 am: Get darling daughter up and ready for school. Shower, change. Maybe makeup. Maybe not.

7:30 am: Carpool

8:30 am: Wake Munchie Boy. Feed Munchie Boy.

9:00 am: Begin homeschooling day.

1:00 pm: NAP TIME! If I'm lucky. I'm usually not so lucky. Science has a tendency to thwart this plan.

2:00 pm: What's for dinner? Prep time.

3:00 pm: Car pool

4:00 pm: Music lesson, church choir practice or catechism, depending upon the day of the week.

5:00 pm: Swim Team or Charlotte Children's Choir rehearsal, depending upon day of the week.

5:30 pm: Walk the dog. Feed the dog. Love the dog.

6:00 pm: Dinner. Maybe now. Maybe later. Whenever it can be squeezed in.

7:00 pm: Catholic Athletes or Scouts.

8:00 pm: Catch up on blogs and email.

9:00 pm. Bedtime.

In between I do try to pick up, do laundry, wash dishes, sweep and vacuum, etc. TRY, I said. I also try to squeeze in a daily Mass now and then because, goodness knows, I can't do it all without the help of our dear Lord!

And on those days I have to work...it's everyone fend for themselves!

So, how does your day look?
