Your morning routine
-
I get up at 530a. Wonder why the hell I did not get to bed earlier, shower, pee and jump in the car by 6am. Get if it looks like I am gonna get to work at 730a, then I stop and grab a cup of tea and a small snack, it if look like it'll be closer to 8am, then I don't stop.
You'd think that I'd get to bed nice and early given the real f-ing early start, well that be the wise thing to do, however I usually get to bed around 10pm, sometime a lot later. I have never been, nor will I ever be, a morning person....

Going to bed now.

Interesting post.
I'm up at 5:45am. Start running bath, whilst that's running, jump on the cross-trainer in my back room (about 10 minutes). Then stop bath filling, get back on the cross-trainer for another 10 minutes. Then get in bath.
About 6:15, out of bath and get dressed etc. 6:30am -> 7am, mix of news, coffee, or Playstation 4.
7am, leave house and walk to train station 7:15 at train station, get coffee, maybe bacon, then on train at 7:25am. At work for 8:30am.
Work until 5pm, doing whatever comes up and projects that are ongoing.
Evenings are random, maybe go out for drinks in London, or home and cinema with gf.
Usually bed between 10:30pm - midnight. -
I am up at 5am: Make the husband breakfast and his lunch before he heads off to work. Then it's a shower for me, coffee and then Social Media Check ins for all my clients. I have my first client at 6am for an hour then I have breakfast. Then I check in here (today I am teaching her how to use Canva so here while I wait for her to figure out signing in) so I am early. Then brain dump for my day and prioritization of all I have to do. Then work all day. Days like today I have to leave the office by 3pm so that I can get to my client in the city and work there all evening. I will be working till 10pm today and then back home to bed to do it all again tomorrow.

My regular routine is up by 5-5:15am. At the gym by 5:30am-ish. Do my workout with enough time left over to get in 10-15 minutes of medium cardio. At work by 7am-ish (depends on traffic), take a shower there/dress, then start working by 7:30am latest. Meanwhile, I have a plant-based protein shake, an hour later something small to eat for breakfast, and have some long awaited coffee.
For the past few weeks and next few months... I'm still trying to figure out something that works. (away for 3 months) No regular routine here yet, but I do see light at the end of the tunnel.

TV, stay in bed for 5 minutes or so, brush teeth, get dressed, coffee, more morning news, leave for work.

I am not a morning person - so the morning routine is pretty much a long period of time fuming and wanting to go back to bed. I have never liked mornings, even during a period of time I don't acknowledge where I was required to do so...
Since working with NTG however, it's up and online (mostly) by 8am, coffee, poptart/begal/something to eat. And since I generally don't have a life outside the house - I'm here till 8pm and glance monitoring till 11-12 when I finally crash out.

I prepare my clothing (ironing or whatever needs to take place) and shower the night before. That way when I wake up I can just throw my clothes on, brush my hair and leave.
-
Why not be even more efficient and go to bed in your clothes?

I never feel clean if I shower the night before.
I get up as late as possible, shower, clothes, out the door, sit in traffic for an hour.

Same here. I have a friend who does and I argue with him constantly.
His take is that he can't stand sleeping dirty. I don't really care. I am usually asleep in seconds. Even if I am covered in sweat and suntan lotion.

I feel fine but I also sleep with the AC on full blast. It's like 60 degrees in my room at night. I barely sweat
-
@wirestyle22 Oh, I keep my room nice and cold for optimal sleeping, but I still feel dirty the next morning.

I thought I was extreme at 73 degrees.

I literally prefer freezing temps. I once woke up covered in snow that wasn't melting.

If I'm that dirty I take a shower before bed and again when I wake up.

Oh lord - we couldn't have my house be that warm, my wife would never sleep. 68 or less for her when possible.

We PREFER it cold. But don't want to kill the AC unit.
