Organizing-My morning routine

This is something I have always wanted to do was help others get organized, so I decided to write about it instead and I will start with my day.  I am usually up somewhere between 6 and 6:30 seven days a week.  Rory has a coffee maker in our bedroom and I usually make it to the point where all I have to do is push the button.  Then I weigh myself and take a shower.  I get dressed and help Rory do his vitals, which he is supposed to do every day.  After that I go downstairs and feed the cat and change her water.  I file things from a pile I have in my office.  Log in my weight in my journal that I have on my desk.  I try to write down things that I need to remember to do that day.  I try to write them down as I go through the previous day.  I fill my two water bottles and light the candle I have on the breakfast bar.  If I was not the one to do dishes the night before, I clean the counters and the top of the stove.  Make sure Rory has four Perrier bottles in the refrigerator and he has all his soda cans in the refrigerator.  He wants sodas in the refrigerator four hours before he uses them.  Then I take out the trash and clean out the cat box and put away anything that is on top of the kitchen table.  I also start Rory's tray.  Two days a week, I put the newspapers in the trash.  Change Sweet Pea's water bowl in Mari's bathroom and water certain plants on the patio.  Turn on the weather channel and my computer and then I start getting Rory's and my breakfast together.  This probably takes me about an hour to an hour and a half from the time I get up to the time I start breakfast.  More to come! 

Having a routine, I have found is very helpful
