Currently

I have this fantasy that I'm going to wake up at 5:30 every morning, hop in the shower, blow out my hair, wear a cute outfit and make up, make breakfast, like eggs and hash browns with toast, check my emails, chat with Hubs, hand him lunch with a peck on the cheek, then awaken Papoose and enjoy my homemade latte while she gets ready. After we review her day, we get to school, just a couple of minutes early, chat on the playground, and then the bell rings.
I can dream, can't I?
Reality:
Hit snooze for the third time before blearily realizing Must Get Up NOW.
Convince Papoose to get up after Mommy in shower. Harangue from shower re: brushing teeth, hair, getting dressed, along with What's the time? We better scoot, scoot, GetGoing!
In between toweling off, finishing Papoose's hair, top button, etc, lotion up, get dressed- leggings again. Remember lip gloss if good day.
Exhort Papoose re: shoes, breakfast, lunch, snack.
Maybe eat oatmeal standing.
Wonder if shadowy memory of Hubs from AM was real v. Dream. Decide maybe dream as no coffee in pot.
Scoot Papoose into car, zoom down hill to school, cursing at red light under breath.
Run-walk Papoose into line during AM greeting. Haven't missed Pledge, so sigh with relief.
Go to Starbucks for latte, extra shot.
Vow to get to bed earlier.
Dream about ideal AM, again.
