The only one I can't seem to work out is the "getting clothes out the night before." It almost never fails that if I set out an outfit the night before, by the morning it will be hotter/colder than I thought or I'll feel fatter/skinnier than the outfit calls for. I tried for a while to force myself to wear whatever I got out the night before anyways, but I just ended up not feeling that good when I rolled into work (like, I didn't really want to wear this but here it is). LOL. So...I'm going to work on it. If I can at least set out the slacks/skirt and shoes I'm wearing the night before, that at least gives me a little more structure to get me going and flexibility to give me some last minute create reign.

I think it's more than dirty dishes, I think it affects morning morale. Hi James, thanks for commenting! I really like to read blogs at night too, but I get so interested in new ideas that it makes it hard for me to sleep. I could stay up for hours. Deb and Steph, y'all have sweet husbands.

Each morning we wake up to a brand-spanking-new feel. It's wonderful. It's particulary delightful because I stay up til midnight reading, idea-ing, blogging, tv-ing. You know, the things a mom can't do during the waking hours. Lol. Now, don’t be too jealous–my hubby gets up each morning and cleans the house for us.

I currently work from home (for the most part) so I don't mind doing the little things the next morning like finishing up the dishes, starting the coffee, and watering the plants. However, I am very much a night owl, and if I'm not careful (go to bed a decent time) I will find myself up late at night surfing the web. But enjoying every minute of it! Of course I always pay for it the next morning when I can't get myself out of bed!
