My daily routine is probably considered a right mess by most folks, but it works for me. I sleep while the kids are at school and do all my work at night because I can't function properly before noon no matter how much sleep I've had. I like how 4:30 AM looks, but I have not the fortitude to actually wake myself up at 4 AM to see it, so that works out pretty well.

If I lived alone, I would follow your schedule! I am a total night person!! Right now, though, I awaken at 6:45 am, 5 to 6 days a week. I have tried sleeping in the day, but it never works because people call me even when I ask them not to. I would turn off the phone, but my son has a lot of medical problems, so I need to be available, just in case. I never feel awake until it's almost time to go to sleep!! I usually go to bed at 11 pm. In the morning, I'm fixing lunches, making sure my son takes his medicines, fixing up medicine for later in the day, making sure everyone leaves the house with what they need for the day. During the day, I do whatever needs done (house cleaning, bill paying, laundry etc.). In the evening, I'm helping with homework, cooking dinner, making sure everyone has everything they'll need for the next day. I have a lot to remember every day (and it seems I'm getting worse at remembering it!) On the weekends, I try to just find some time to sit down!!!
