A typical day starts at 6 am with a blur of two toddlers, strong coffee and breakfast.

I find myself in front of my computer promptly at 8am for an onslaught of email communications that keep my renters insurance website ticking. I will usually get some design mockups from my designer. Reviewing them and providing feedback/modifications keeps me busy until about 10:30am. I love this part of my day because it is so challenging for me. I am not a web design expert but I have trained myself to know what looks good and will provide a good user experience.

Much like the rest of the working world, my day consists of a dream-shattering and sometimes vulgar display of my vocabulary aimed at my alarm clock.  After rolling out of the rack and stumbling around the kitchen to grab some caffeine, I sit at the kitchen table for a bit trying to motivate my kids in getting ready for school for the day.

I woke up early today, 4:55 AM, as I do each work day to go to work in an industry that swallows most of my day. I'm a reluctant early riser and always have been. But, I could stay up all night easily.  That may be part of my problem.

I open my eyes. It's morning, but I'd rather sleep longer. I pick up a library book "50 Ways to Live the Good Life". I like this one. My husband is going out for the day. Out into the Kansas woods. I get out of bed. I try to wake up. I don't drink coffee - many days it takes a while. I check my e-mail and Twitter. I fix some food for my husband to take out with him. He can do it himself, but I like to do that for him.
