I usually get up when my hubby does (around 5:00 or so), get some coffee, and have a little time to get online and read the forum, check e-mail, etc. before my daughter wakes up. She usually comes stumbling out of her room around 6:00, which is when the dogs wake up and need let out, then I get breakfast ready, feed the inside animals, and get DD settled down doing something while I go outside and take care of the outside animals, then start on school and business work when I get back in.
So here it is...almost 9:00...Ava is still fast asleep in her room, the dogs are still snoring by the fireplace, and I'm sitting here wondering who drugged them all.
The best part is, hubby got up early and fed all the horses before he left so I wouldn't have to wade through the snow this morning and do it. I'm not complaining...really.
