0530 greet the new day by being kicked in the face by my 3yo who climbed into the bed at some point during the night.
0531 calmly explain to face kicker that it's too fucking early to exist and they should in fact still be sleeping.
0537 slowly drift back into a tranquil deep slumber.
0600 be ripped against every fiber of my being from freshly entered deep sleep to the chorus of alarm clock, haptic alarm from the supercomputer strapped to my wrist, partners alarm, and 3yo screaming for food.
0601 coffee.
0602 feed rabidly hungry child spawn.
0604 coffee.
0607 change poo filled diaper of previously noted face kicking food screamer.
0613 stand on small sharp toy left in hallway. I find this is a great way to really invigorate the senses.
0615 coffee.
0630 begin attempting to dress the tiny human that has taken ownership of my home.
0631 experience enthusiastically recited full Irish dance routine as I attempt to get pants on the face kicking, food screaming, poop making, toy leaving offspring.
0640 coffee.
0645 ask child to confirm that have in-fact finished with their half eaten breakfast.
0646 throw out remainder of breakfast.
0647 make new breakfast as they were not finished with previous breakfast.
0700 attempt to get child into bike and leave for childcare / work.
0700 - 1000 actually leave for work / childcare drop off.
I find this routine to be a great way to really center and focus you for the day ahead.
