Day 13: Earliest Memory:
My earliest memories are foggy. It's hard for me to really know. I do remember when my old babysitter Florence would sit with me on the steps in my house waiting for my mom to get home and we would eat a very sweet snack of a three musketeers bar (I remember when there used to be three small bars inside the package) and drink cola - I drank mine from my baby bottle! My son and my sister both have clear memories going all the way back into very early infancy. My son seems to remember things like the cradle thing they put babies in at the hospital and the car we owned when he was less than a year old. o_O
Day 14: If I won the lottery
I would travel all over the world. I don't get much out of luxury accommodations, but just the traveling and experiencing different places is so engrossing to me.
Day 15: Timeline of my day:
5:45 alarm goes off.
6 am -- husband goes to work. He works at a childcare center taking care of toddlers.
I get the laptop and mess around looking for stories to read etc.
It is summertime right now so our schedule is looser. This morning I did a lot of scheduling and emailing trying to put our fall brochure together. I do a lot of work from my home office. My son made cinnamon rolls for breakfast. Workmen arrived to start digging the footers for our screen porch!!!! It is so exciting to think about the new room that will soon be appended to our house.
It's around 10:30 now. I'm going to encourage son to take a walk with me because it is pretty outside.
I have to eat lunch between noon and 1 pm or I get cross!
Husband arrives home at around 3:30 from work and we have espresso. (I gave up coffee for Lent this year because it was wrecking my digestion, so now I have tea, but sometimes I do have a little halfshot of espresso.)
Then in the afternoon/evening I give music lessons, so my schedule is different every day.
We eat supper around 5:30 or 6 because husband often leaves to rehearse or son has dance class.
We try to send son to bed by 9:30 but it is getting harder to send him to bed at a reasonable hour as he gets older. Then we go to bed around 10:30 because of such an early rising time.
It is a fluctuating schedule but a very good life.
