Jennye, you'll notice that I have to remind myself to shower, brush my teeth, feed my kid (well, that would probably get done somehow w/o the list!) I'll try switching over to the TADA and PODA delivery, though, because when I type DONE in all caps it does sorta look like "shouting."

And the _only_ reason I am up at 5:20 on weekdays is b/c my 17yo stepson leaves for school by 6:10. His classes start at 7:15, and if he's going to meet with a teacher or something, it has to happen before the bell rings. It's insane to make teenagers do this, imho. I worry about his nutrition, so I get up and cook him some eggs and make sure he hasn't slept through his alarm. I'll tell you what, though -- I couldn't have done this when my son was a baby and waking at night a lot! By the time Patrick started high school, Michael was a toddler and DH was doing most of the nighttime duty.
