31 Day Blog Challenge: Day 10

For the month of March, I am participating in Fabulous Finds by Tiffany’s 31 Day Blog Challenge. Today’s prompt: Daily routine.

My days do not always work out as planned/ideally, just like everyone else, but this is what an average, “good” weekday is in my book:

  1. Hit snooze over and over.
  2. Drag myself downstairs. Drink coffee and sit with Madison on the recliner while dozing/watching local news/playing on my phone.
  3. Frantically get ready for work. Sometimes while this is occurring I get a call from work  reassigning me to a different school/teacher for the day.
  4. Go to whatever school I am subbing at that day.
  5. Follow the plans left for me by the teacher for whom I am subbing.
  6. During swim season or swimming intramurals, I head to the high school, coach/supervise while a caffeinated diet soda and drinking lots of water, then go home. When those activities aren’t in season, I stop for a coffee and then go home,  or just go home (to make more coffee).
  7. Once home, I change into workout clothes, watch an episode of a TV show on Netflix, have a snack, and pet the dogs.
  8. Walk the dogs.
  9. Relax/do chores/take care of tasks for work or other things.
  10. Eat dinner and then workout OR workout then eat dinner.
  11. Some nights I may go out to play free bar trivia with my friends. If not, I will Skype with Dan, relax/do chores/take care of work stuff, or have a phone chat with a long distance friend.
  12. Shower/bath.
  13. Bed! : )

What is your routine like on a “good” weekday?

my life: under the weather

 

Monday evening I fell ill and was sick all day Tuesday. This morning I’m still not feeling my best, but I’m definitely doing much better, thanks to a (safe) combination of medication and other little comforts, such as:

  • Ginger ale
  • Naps with Madison
  • Sweatpants and blankets
  • Texts from great friends
  • House Hunters and Arrested Development
  • A long, hot bath
  • A warm pasta meal when I felt up to eating
  • Laughs with Dan, who took care of me so wonderfully

What makes you feel better when you’re sick?

 

does anyone else…

…feel like summer has been moving way too fast?

…feel strange with unpainted fingernails?

…have trouble sleeping without their dog (or cat) cuddled up next to them?

…wish the summer Olympics happened more frequently than every four years?

…love kicking back with a bowl of popcorn and a funny movie after a long week?

…think it’s just as fun to go through the drive-thru as an adult as it was as a kid?

…enjoy starting the day with a big cup of coffee and morning news and talk shows?

…feel like they could eat Mediterranean cuisine for every meal for the rest of eternity?

What is making you happy as of late?

 

tv shows that aren’t on netflix instant streaming but should be*

*Even though if they were it would turn me into a complete homebody and destroy my social life

 

 

 

Full House: Uncle Jesse + 80s/90s fashion and pop culture = worth the lesson music at the end of every episode

 

 

Home Improvement: Tim Allen at his finest + 90s Midwest suburbia at its finest = the cure for anytime I’m feeling homesick

Boy Meets World: Great group of childhood friends + Mr. Feeny = the schooling experience every 90s child wanted

The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air: amazing comedic ensemble cast + the ability to get serious without getting cheesy = perfect balance

 

 

Friends: dating and work catastrophes and successes + best friends = real life but way funnier

Seinfeld: crazy characters + crazier situations = a pretty amusing show about nothing

Will & Grace: witty dialogue + ridiculous rivalries = pure fun

 

 

(and my personal ultimate favorite)Golden Girls: four older broads living together + cheesecake = a hilarious show ahead of its time

 

What shows would spell disaster for you if they made it onto Netflix Streaming?

 

does anyone else…

 

 

…enjoy driving with sunglasses on, the windows down, and music blaring?

…adore black tea lemonades?

…think August 18th is way too long to wait for The Hunger Games on DVD?

…love the start of summer grill-out season?

…read historical nonfiction (like this)?

…not understand the need for so many singing competition shows on TV?

…enjoy cheesy puns (like the ones in the photo above)?

…think napping is wonderful?

 

P.S. Thinking of all those the U.S.A. lost in the line of duty, their legacy, and their families, as well as all living past, present, and future servicemen and women. Thank you.
