Before Scout: Wake up 50 mins before I need to be at work. Shower, throw something on. Put jacket and shoes on. Quick look in the mirror to asses the outcome. Nothing can be done about the outcome anyway. Pick up laptop bag(1 number). Rush out.
After Scout: Wake up when he wakes up which could be 2-3 hours before the time I need to be at work. Play with him etc. One of us bathes him, diapers him, dresses him, feeds him breakfast. Shower, throw something on. Put jacket and shoes on for him and self. Pick up bags (4 number). Rush out with him.
What I miss: The quick look in the mirror. Oh, the vanity!
heheheeh! AJ so true...!

ReplyDeletehow about reflection in car window glass *after* you strap him in his car seat and as you get into the front door?
ReplyDeletei am finally a point where i can stare and stare away at the mirror but find that i have lost the habit!
Mirror in the office lift maybe?:-)) We all find our way AJ - we do:-))
ReplyDeleteAll: Very good suggestions. Will implement. :) But preening at the gym's mirror might be the most beneficial, if that coaxes me to use the other services of the gym as well. :)
ReplyDeleteSame pinch ... except number of bags and kids ... 2 kids = 6-8 bags :D
ReplyDeleteso true! Occasionally I forget what I look like, n have to go trot to the almirah mirror to remind myself!
ReplyDeleteCA: Ahh. Thanks for the heads-up on the exponential increase in the # of bags. :)
