Do you consider yourself a "morning person," a "night owl," or somewhere in between?Other
Please elaborate, if you wish.It's variable based upon how much sleep I've gotten the night before and what time my husband wakes me up. At times I'm awake in the middle of the night, too.
What are the trouble spots in your daily routine or your family’s routines? In other words, where do you find your habits and routines breaking down on a regular basis?*I find myself waffling back and forth on the continuum of being organized (i.e., turn over a new leaf,/ usually with a hard copy calendar/schedule of to do's for the day) and not as organized (having it in my head with a lower degree of intention since my list keeps me accountable.

*DH and I have a different perspective on the use of time is. His is, "We're both retired--what does it matter?" Mine is, "I have a lot to do and my hope is to be circumspect about how I spend time." He messes me up at times.
What aspects of your home (the size, the layout, the contents, the organization of those contents, other household members, etc.) either contribute to or detract from your ability to cultivate and execute productive and useful routines?*DH can be distracting either because of his perspective (stated on previous question) or because he has the "time stealer" of emotional needs which need to be attended to.

*At times DH gets real upset about my clutter and I'm forced to clean things up. I'm working on attending to it myself before it gets to the point of being overwhelming to him. Being "forced" is never a positive experience, but the positive is that things get cleaned up. The two main trouble spots are my office and the living room.
What daily (or frequent) chore would you like to wave a magic Clutter Fairy wand to remove from your routine?Dusting for every room and cleaning the bathrooms (2).
