I’m so excited to be linking up with Simply Rebekah’s Day in the Life again this year. I find it so fascinating to see what everyone’s daily lives are like. It works like this: you choose a day, and take a picture every hour throughout that day, creating a visual photo journal of your everyday life. Here’s mine:
My days vary depending on if I’m working from home or not. And if Charlotte has classes that day or if it’s a homeschool day. This day in the life was a Wednesday (January 16th) when Charlotte was at home and I was working from home. So it’s a pretty typical look at what those types of days look like for us.
6:15 Time to wake up! I’ve taken over my daughter’s alarm clock because I love how it lights up to wake me up rather than making a bunch of noise. (It’s the OK to Wake! Children’s Alarm Clock and Nightlight
7:15 Trunk of my car is loaded up and ready to go make my deliveries. I do home deliveries for Abundant Harvest Organics, which helps offset the cost of my CSA box each week.
8:15 Just getting home, only my box left in the trunk. Headed in to get Charlotte started on homeschooling.
9:15 Homeschooling Charlotte (in her PJ’s), and trying to work at the same time. Not always the best idea. Isaac’s watching Tinkerbell (don’t judge).
10:15 More of the same: homeschooling Charlotte and trying to get some work done at the same time.
11:15 Finally unpacking my produce box and feeling overwhelmed by the amount of produce I need to fit in my fridge. Charlotte’s still hard at work. Feels like time is flying by and we still have so much to do.
12:15 Time for lunch. Heating up leftover Thai food from last night. Kids had a snacky lunch of cheese, crackers, salami, mandarin oranges from our produce box, and cherry tomatoes.
1:15 Just put Isaac down for nap and about to read Story of the World with Charlotte before her rest time.
2:15 Working, working, working while the kids are napping. Missed this picture, but I promise it wouldn’t have been too exciting!
3:15 Still working frantically.
4:15 Starting dinner. I’m trying Stacy’s Chocolate Chili recipe for the first time. It needs to simmer for 2 hours, and I’m wishing I started it a little bit earlier. But, it turned out great, and according to my husband, it was “some of the best chili he’s ever had”.
5:15 A friend and her girls stopped by for a quick visit, and I forgot to take a picture.
6:15 Giving the kids a bath.
7:15 Reading Little Women 
8:15: Kids are in bed and for once actually asleep already (I think). Finishing up a few emails and then going to watch last night’s Parenthood.
10:15 After some catching up on shows and reading in bed, it’s time for lights out for me!
So, that’s my day in a life. Here’s last year’s, and be sure to check out the link up at Simply Rebekah.
