I haven't done a Day In The Life post for 2.5 years, so I figured it's time! The kids are 13 {almost 14} and 12. We're living in Florida, and I'm working full time for myself at Your Travel Hubb.
7:30a | My alarm goes off {this is the gift of working for yourself & having teenagers} You will also notice my phone didn't charge last night {ugh!} I go upstairs and make sure they're both awake {they are} and then go back down and get myself ready for the day.
9a | We leave the house, grab a friend, and do the school drop off. On the way back I realize I need gas, so I stop and do that. I then decide to go do my TJ Maxx return. I start laundry and then get started on work.
10a | Finally working. I send all-inclusive resort options to a repeat couple, Jamaica options to annual girls trippers, and booked 5 rooms on the Utopia of the Seas.
12p | I had a call with a long wait time, so I started my lunch, unloaded the dishwasher, prepped a chicken & rice casserole for the week, and cooked a pound of bacon. After I unloaded the dishwasher, I ran this cleaner through it. Also, if you aren't utilizing Walmart grocery delivery, you're missing out. They literally open my garage door and put my groceries in my fridge for me! It's the biggest time {& money!} saver! I have groceries delivered ~3x per week on average.
1p | I booked a couple rooms for a family of 7 to join friends I had previously booked for their spring break trip. The pool guy comes and informs us our pump went out :( I then wash my hair because I had a girl come to the house and braid it for me.
3p | I'm still working, mostly emails and trip details at this point. I have completed 3 loads of laundry, so I took some time to finally hang my pile of shirts.
4:30p | The kids are home! They have snacks, do their homework, and get ready for sports.
5:45p | We leave the house for sports. I drop J off at volleyball at 6, then take C to football at 6:20. On this day I want back to volleyball to work in the car for a bit {I was getting final details and pricing for clients joining a 40th birthday trip to Mexico with a group I had already booked} and then bring J home. My friend, Amanda, brought Cullyn home.
8:30p | We're all home! Adam just walked in the door, the kids ran upstairs to shower, and I started our dinner for the night -- white cheddar burgers from Hello Fresh {we've started ordering 4 meals a week from there, the kids each pick one meal they will cook & I make dinner the other two meals}. Adam prepped a lasagna for Wednesday night while I made the Hello Fresh meal. It's a busy week, so we're trying to get ahead, we don't normally do this.
9:30p | We sit down and watch the Monday night football games {we watched the Bucs come back to beat the Texans by 1 & the beginning of the Chargers/Raiders game} We're doing a Fantasy Football family league at Cullyn's request, so everyone is getting into football a little more this year. ;)
10/10:30p | Not positive on the time, but the kids went up to bed. Our goal is 10p, but when you don't eat until 9:30, that can be challenging!
12:30p | I work until 12:37, not an everyday thing, but I had several trips to get booked because I was off the next two days. I am positive I was asleep by 12:45a!
