{A Day in My Life} Blogember | Day Seven

A typical Thursday in my crazy life...

6-7am I push snooze for an hour and wake up grudgingly (I'm so not a morning person!) I grab my phone, stumble to the bathroom, and play some tunes from Spotify. I jump into a hot shower and take my time opening my eyes. It's a process, I tell ya.

7:30 I wake up the little princess. She is also not a morning person...so I tread lightly to prevent a meltdown and the demise of a perfectly fine day. I let her choose her clothes and get dressed while I finish up getting myself ready. She joins me in the bathroom to brush her teeth and I always brush her hair while she cries (would someone please recommend a good brush for tangles, ugh!).

8 We run out the door grabbing jackets, blanket, lunch boxes, & bags. And I frequently hear myself say "Come on Brooklyn, hurry, we're late"...which kinda makes me cringe at my own words after reading this article. I always listen to Ryan Seacrest (Still have a crush on that guy, but don't tell anyone) on Kiss FM on our way to school and Brooklyn & I sing our fave songs together.

 8:20 I drop Brooklyn off at her school and she gives me hugs & kisses (but always on my cheek because she doesn't like my lipgloss).

8:30ish I arrive to my classroom with a pot of fresh coffee waiting for me in the back room (I love my teacher neighbor and our shared kitchen space)

8:56 My first photography class begins and I still kinda pinch myself that this is my job! I honestly look forward to teaching these days...which is amazing after 16 years in the classroom.

9:50 Nutrition - More coffee with my colleagues

10:08 Spanish 5/6 - This is my first year that I only have one class of Spanish. It's a bit of a paradigm shift going from Photography to Spanish to Photography again in the matter of an hour. 

12:04pm I've been having lunch with my BFF Kal that teaches across the hall from me for at least 10 years. I'm so lucky to work with an awesome group of teachers that are also my friends.

12:44 Last 2 Photography classes for the day

2:40 School Day ends

3:30 Pick up Brooklyn from school and run errands (Trader Joes or Target, etc.)

4:30 Finish up on Brooklyn's homework

6:30 Brooklyn goes to her dads for the evening

7-10 Start a marathon editing session and catch up on all my photography duties OR head out to dinner

10 Catch up on Grey's Anatomy or Nashville if I'm home; If I'm out, time to get my salsa groove on

12 Hit the hay! Whew.
