OUT THE DOOR WARRIOR

A HUGE Thank You to Everyone Who Visited my first Post!!  I hope to not let you down with motivational and helpful incite.

As we embark on the second half of the school year for many of us parents, the dreaded alarm and mad rush out the door looms but hours away.  For those without children to chauffeur , I know you are in the same boat with the Holidays over getting  back to work on a NORMAL schedule again.

Time to Prepare tonight.  I know it sounds simple and it is...

1. Make the lunches and make them somewhat healthy.. I know how kids are

2. Plan your own lunch, how about some leftover ham and an orange?

3. Get your clothes laid out for you and your kids.. it only takes a few minutes as opposed to rushing around in the dark and cold of morning trying to find the pair of socks that must be worn with those pants ultimately to find them in the dirty clothes.  You could lose 10 minutes here!!!

4.  Get your bag packed.  Throw your workout clothes in a bag, your new ipad, your water bottle, all those things you spend 10 minutes gathering for yourself EVERY am.  Ask your kids to do the same for themselves.

5.  Lastly, and this is important!  Prep your coffee maker so when you wake up you can stumble to the kitchen, press a button, and make breakfast for yourself or kids while that hot pot of instant energy brews baby~!!!!

Guess what?  You now have an extra 10-20 minutes to stretch your muscles, catch the weather report, have breakfast with the kids. 

I promise this will cut down on a ton of stress, arguments, and avoid starting your day off the completely wrong way.  YES your kids can like you in the morning.

So what if your morning were to actually become boring, predictable, and peaceful before you even got out the door? I say perfect. I will catch up on drama in the drop off line and freeway no doubt!

Get some exercise today or you will become seditary with health complications and have a 40% higher chance of dying in 6 years( if you are 50-80)

BTW.. I do not know these children but they must have a great mom!!
