As the title says I'm interested to know what others peoples early mornings are like?
I live in Northampton and work in leamington so it's up at 6am. Let the cat out, make my lunch, have breakfast and listen to the radio or watch corrie while I'm getting ready in the spare room, which we call my room :) my husband doesn't get up until after I've left the house at 7am to get to work for 7.40am. I love the spare room as it's all girly and reminds me of the apartment I lived in on my own for two years. We're talking about turning it into the nursery when we have a baby.. But I think the other spare room that we call my husbands room because it's got all his crap and computer in there should be it ;)
Oh and 6am is a killer in the winter.. Soooo hard! Anyone up even earlier?
 
This morning yes :(
The man in the hotel room above sounded like he was doing Riverdance at 5.20. I have a serious meeting and a 2 1/2 hour drive home. Joy. I'm shattered!
Usually my mornings are good: up at 6.25, tea, cat cuddles, bath and tv. I have a 45 minute commute so the relaxation when I get up is useful lol
 
I live and work in leamington! Small world :) I love on the next street to where I work so it's up about an hour and a half before 1st client ;) x
 
Im up with the two kids at 6.30. We all eat brekkie together, then my eldest gets ready for school while i clean up after brekkie, make his lunch and vacuum the floors. ( he takes for ever to get ready, hes 5 lol) then i get my youngest ready for the day (20 months old) then my self. Walk to school at 8.40 and then the rest of my day begins.
 
Well I'm up by 6am. Go to the gym for an hour. Then shower and have breakfast. Make a packed lunch for hubby and I. Hair and make up and get dressed. Then I'm out the door by 9. Yea right!

I sleep in til 7:15. Feed the dog. Shower and get dressed. Take dog out for a poop. Have breakfast. And stall til 9:15 on the internet and walk to work. Haha
 
Set my alarm put it on snooze for ages drag myself out of bed to the shower then get dressed and do my make up... maybe have some breakfast then go to work... as you can tell im not a morning person lol x
 
I'm afraid mine sounds more like Chickafish's too. Worse even! I'm so lazy. I wake up around 7.30 or 7.45 sit down on my backside again, have my tea for at least 20mins, while browse the net then I see the time and say "oh sh*t, jump up, rush about, feeding and dressing children and finally I stagger out the door at 8.50. I drop 1st child off at 8.55 and the other at 9.10 before going home again showering myself getting changed and leaving for work at 9.45!!!
Disgraceful I know!!!

Mornings aren't my thing..,.
 
Monday - Friday
Up at 5:30. Sort my horses and organise their exercise schedules with my Groom. Back to the house for 6:30. Husband is up and on breakfast. Daughter aged six up for 7:30, finish breakfast.

I'm not sure exactly where that is, I've worked in leamington 7 years but haven't explored much beyond the parade and Jephson gardens for my lunch in summer. I'm a dental nurse on Clarendon street top end of town. I do nails mobile as a side line
 
Depends whether hubby can do the morning school run :D or who's booked in at 0930.

If not im up at 750 hair wash, dry, straighten, make up, little boy to get up at 8am but he's 8 so gets himself ready and do breakfasts and drinks out the door by 835.

Though this will all change once my little Max gets here at the beginning of May :)

It depends on what it's in store that actual day. If I'm on the early shift my alarm is set for just after 05.00. I hit the snooze button several times or at least for as long as I can justify and I go downstairs and sort the priorities first (switch the coffee machine on).

I try and persuade the dog to go for a pee whilst he looks at me as if I am mad and declines the offer. He gets fed and I take my coffee upstairs to get ready. All my clothes are already in the bathroom so I don't have to furk around and wake the Husband searching for my uniform.

I then take way too long getting my act together and am always running out the door much later than planned, but never without another coffee in a takeaway cup to drink when I get to work at 06.45.
 
Awake at 7 snooze till 7.30 unless husband has left doors open downstairs and then the dog will jump on me to get me up earlier.
Feed dog let her out,get washing out of machine and hang up or put in drier.Turn heating and wax pots on in beauty room.
Get cup of tea and go back to bed for half hour with dog and watch news.
Shower and get ready to go to work up the garden, first client usually about 10.
If working most of the day I will prepare dinner early to go in the slow cooker.
