Comments on: What is Your Daily Schedule?

I suppose your schedule has to be a bit more structured than mine with an MBA courseload, but I definitely don’t have much of a schedule.

I do nothing between waking up and going to work. After work I either tutor twice a week or go home. At home I either play video games, work out or watch TV. After dinner I do my blogging and then more of the same as before dinner.

My work hours can vary depending on when I want to get up. I can get in as early as 7 or as late as 10. I suppose I really don’t have much of a schedule because of that.

I definitely have a routine, but with three little boys, it is a little more loosely structured than it used to be! Instead I rely quite heavily on my Franklin Covey planner (left over from my working days). I keep pretty detailed lists of what I need to do today, tomorrow, next week, etc. If it doesn’t get done today, I make sure I forward it to another day. It’s been the best tool to keep me on track.

My schedule is similar except for the MBA class. I spend that time managing our money, researching, and writing. When my schedule begins to annoy me, I try to remember that I am doing all of those things to expedite the arrival of the day when I no longer need a schedule, or at least one that has “work” stuck in the middle of it.

Oh yeah, I’ve got a routine. It varies, but for the most part it looks like this Monday through Thursday:

6am: wake up, feed dogs and cats, get ready for work
7am: arrive at work
12pm: bike home to let dogs out and eat lunch
1pm: bike back to work
5pm: pick up groceries, go to the bank or drugstore on the way home
5:30pm: cook dinner for me and girlfriend
6:30-10:00: downtime with girlfriend, chores, volunteer commitment
10:00: feed pets and go to bed

On Fridays, I go to the park with the dogs and catch up on my volunteer commitment (10-20 hours per week). Weeknights are tough though. I always find that I spend more time in front of the TV than I meant to, and not enough time on chores like laundry, cleaning, dishes, etc.

Oh yeah, I’m all about the routines. Are you kidding… if I didn’t have routines I would weigh 300 lbs and know the afternoon TV line up by heart.

Wake up at 7:00, get daughter off to school.
Take a walk
Write a post, read my reader, comment on no debt plan. from 8:30 to 9:30
Run errands
Lunch at 11:00
Put my son down for a nap and get stuff done around the house.
Get my daughter home from school, work on homework
Cook, eat, clean up dinner from 4:00 to 6:00ish
Baths for the kids
Bed for the kids between 7:00 and 8:00
Work out
Say hi to my husband
Bed at 10:00ish

Oh, and someplace in there I take two classes and do my own homework.
