6:00 am - Wake up, reluctantly.
6:01 am - Reassure Fluffy Bear, who woke up with a yell because we haven't had any alarms on for the last 6 months
6:05 am - Let dogs out to pee
6:10 am - Feed dogs, trying to teach crazy puppy not to eat her brother's food
6:20 am - Let dogs out to pee, stand in the cold begging Puppy Girl to poop
6:28 am - Gratefully scoop poop
6:30am - Let Puppy Dog back through to the bedroom to sleep some more. Try to get Puppy Girl to lie quietly on our bed. Fail.
6:35am - Let Puppy Girl into the living room to play, whispering Choopelah as I kick a ball across the floor. Close puppy gate. Head for the shower
6:40am - Shower while Puppy Girl stands at the puppy gate barking and crying and a grumpy Fluffy Bear yells at her to shut up from the bed... there is a flaw in this process
7:00am - Let Puppy Girl through puppy gate and put her on our bed. Blowdry hair while she looks at me, confused, tilting her head
7:10am - Pretend to do makeup
7:15am - Make smoothie for breakfast with Puppy Girl watching my every move, hoping for some food
7:25 am - Give Puppy Girl and Puppy Dog the almost empty yogurt container
7:30am - Pretend to get dressed but, in reality, get right hand chewed off by puppy while I try to wipe yogurt off her face
7:40 am - Stop pretending it's a working day, and hit the couch.
Conclusion: I can make it out of the house by 7:45ish to get to the bus to get to work on time, but we have to do something about the Puppy Girl factor.
Tomorrow will try putting her back on the bed with her dad straight after her breakfast.
Wish us luck.
