I've never done the challenge you're doing. I got my advice and how-tos over at Zen Habits but I will never go back. Bob has to leave for work at 4 so I get up around that time (or 4:30 at the latest) and start with a cup of coffee. I read my bible (or a devo) and pray. Then I edit if that's on my to-do list and on the mornings I don't have editing, I write. I do 20 minutes of yoga, I make my bed, I get ready, all by 6:30ish, when all the kids start invading my room. To have a great morning routine I had to give up a few things. I don't watch much TV now during the week, maybe a show here or there with Bob after dinner and before I go out for a quick run. I shower at night rather than taking the time to do that in the morning. I go to bed shortly after everyone else. But I love starting the day with daycare knowing I've done much of my to-dos already. I will be praying that your morning routine becomes a solid habit. :)Amber Rainhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04275961036104350271noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12457504.post-19464818420117060792011-05-09T14:55:34.964-07:002011-05-09T14:55:34.964-07:00Yay Tamara!

I signed up last year, then got PG, had the baby, etc. You know how it goes ;-) But starting last week I've committed myself to getting up at 6:15, and am going to start getting in regular devotion and exercise time... first I'm just starting with getting myself up out of bed, lol! <br /><br />Thanks for the encouragement!Erinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09932119838113244830noreply@blogger.com
