Drill Sergeant

It’s 7am…rise and shine!

I was back in drill sergeant mode this morning. It was not fun, but we made it out the door and to school on time.

I had to abandon my coffee and dreamt about a hot cup ALL morning.

It was 35* in the SCV this morning!

I didn’t have time to {put my face on} as my Gam used to say, so it was one of those mornings when we pulled into the preschool parking lot at 8:15 {45 minutes early} and I applied the MAC and Great Lash while Holden fiddled around on the iPod Touch. Usually, before dropping Holden off, I like to squeeze in an early morning errand {like Target or Dollar Tree for unnecessary junk} but I just didn’t have it in me this morning plus I needed my face on since I was volunteering in E’s class at 9:30.

This is my favorite new breakie….

{2 Kashi 7-grain waffles, 1 T peanut butter and half a banana, sliced}

All for under 300 calories and satisfying.

Looks like we’re back to the regular morning routine ~ “Time to get up!”, “Let’s get dressed!”, “C’mon, eat your breakfast!”, “Brush your teeth!”, “Get your shoes on!”, “Please grab your messenger bag and let’s go!”.

Any other drill sergeants out there?

I hope I’m not the only one….

  1. Yum! I will totally do that! Healthy and fast. You just don’t find that combination very often. Oh, and can hold it with one hand and carry? I’m so in.

    But, it’s just me I have to get going (and I barely made it!) Because getting into the car at 6:00 a.m. is all new (first time this year) I forgot my jacket and scarf…brrr! Cold sitting outside for the President’s breakfast thia a.m. (Student Center not ready yet)….my first day back to school!

    Yum…I’m going to pack those waffles in my grocery sack! They look super, Aims!
