    Used to have a similar routine when I was working. Nowadays I’m retired so up at around 7.30, shower, breakfast, look at the forum, suit myself what I do.  ;)

    Daddy! Daddy! 
    Ok pickle, here I am, shh shh, it's ok..
    Mummy!
    You got me to take you to mummy? 
    Mmm, yah! Mummy!
    *Takes to mummy*
    Mummy: you want to go downstairs with daddy for honey on toast?
    Yah daddy!

    4.30 - 7ish..  coffee & cartoons, if she falls to sleep then usually something with more swearwords. 
    7am - postman pat and fail to get her and me dressed. Take up to mummy for breasts and so I can go to the toilet and get ready for work.. 
    7.50 - 8.10 try to get out the door to walk/scooter/carry her to nursery. 
    Run back to car to then go to work. Get to work, get coffee and don't work. Load up fretboard. Check emails, decide it's all too much and make another coffee.

    Rince and repeat.

    wake up screaming at 4 or so, then lie awake for a few hours hoping for the terrors to quieten down.

    I'm not locked in here with you, you are locked in here with me.

    Awake at silly o'clock, courtesy of cat. Interrupted (by cat) snoozing till just gone 0700, give cat Whiskas 11+ pouch, go for a wee. Start electric ring under frying pan, wash face & smelly bits, put covers back on bed before cat finishes food & jumps back on. Start dressing. Bacon in frying pan, egg follows soon. Butter half slice of bread, the other half waits to go in frying pan. Finish dressing, finish cooking, eat breakfast, listening to news on R4, maybe reading email too. Wash up breakfast things. By now cat is hassling for more food, so give her a handful of Vet Essentials crunchy things. Go for a crap. By this time cat is back on bed so clear her litter tray. Wash hands, floss teeth & brush. Turn off Raspberry Pi & radio, grab pre-prepared portion of microwaveable curry/stew for lunch,  bid cat a good day put on outdoor things and outside to start the car for 1,8 mi trip to work. Arrive approx 0900 wondering how that lot took nearly 2 hours.

    I remember those days. Washed, dressed, packed for the week, and out of the door in 20 minutes. Breakfast on the train or at the airport. 

    Nowadays I get up when I wake, make tea, and go back to bed to check the forum and read the news. Around 8 I’ll have breakfast and get on with the rest of the day.

    It’s a wonderful life.

    Depends. When I had a job it was lates, so i'd get up around half 11 or earlier if I needed to shave my head. 

    30 mins is my turnaround lol. That includes shower, teeth, moisturising my crappy skin and getting out the door. 

    These days unless i have a job centre appointment or interview, its about 2pm before I can get up and face the shit.  
    The only easy day, was yesterday...

    Wake up at 5, and curse in my head.
    Try to sleep until 6/6:30.
    Finally drop off about 6:20, wake up 10 minutes later groggy AF and drag myself out of bed.
    Bathroom bits, dress.
    Take dog for pre-breakfast walk to empty him.
    (Wash up from previous evening if too lazy to do it the night before)
    Feed hound.
    Mainline coffee.
    Make lunch.
    (Tue-Thur: wait for Mrs Snags to get her arse in grear)
    8:00 - 8:30 head out the door for the car and work

    Weekends only differ in the not going to work part.
    Some weekdays actually get up at 5, out the door by 5:30/5:45 and leave Mrs Snags to sort all the other shit out because I have to drive umpty miles around the M25 to get to client sites.

    Is that a euphemism for some kind of sordid fetish? 

    I never have time for that sort of shenanigans in the morning! 

    Mon-Thur - Up at 7, shower, coffee, fag, shreddies 

    8 am off to school

    Fridays are more fun. Up at 9, shower, coffee, fag, shreddies... 

    Sit and plan my afternoon YBTB music sessions, 10:30, pack PA, drums, amps and all the instruments in the world into the car and drive to Barrow to make some noise!

    I'm confused. Do you shower fully clothed or do everything else on the list in the nude? 
    You say, atom bomb. I say, tin of corned beef.
