Quit my job a week ago to go to school full time. Old routine was:
6:35-Alarm goes off first time.
6:44-Alarm again...
6:53-Alarm again. Relent & wake up, lie in bed checking Book Face, email, etc on phone.
7:05ish Get up to take shower.
7:20 Out of shower, Get dressed, pack lunch, do makeup, etc. while husband walks dogs & makes me a breakfast sandwich
7:50 Catch bus
I'm trying to create a NEW routine now that I'm just going to school, because I know I am VERY good at wasting time! Here's my goal (roughly)
7:00-Alarm goes off
7:09-Alarm goes off again, wake up for real
7:20-Out of bed, chat/cuddle with husband briefly, take dogs for walk (longer than the couple of blocks they're used to, ideally)
8:00-Brush teeth, make coffee in French Press (RESIST siren call of the Nespresso, must save fancy coffee for weekends!), eat healthy(ish) breakfast--trying to eat plain yogurt & a little granola or oats w/minimal sweetner
8:30-Go for bike ride if weather is nice, come home, take shower, start homework, yada yada
I only have class twice a week in the evenings, so I have a ton of unstructured time. So far, I love it...it's definitely making me realize how SWEET it will be when I hit that FI goal!!
