Routines can be good or bad, I think being too comfortable can also be bad, sometimes, something cries out for change, a fresh perspective. I am in want of change right now...Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7417066.post-19435886459424364002007-04-12T09:24:00.000-07:002007-04-12T09:24:00.000-07:00Fantastic discussion again..I also have a love/hat...Fantastic discussion again..<BR/><BR/>I also have a love/hate relationship with routine..hate it when theres too much but also need it...especially with the girls :) i crave change/challenges but it usually takes me a while to get into a new routine...juliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17494063962933062572noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7417066.post-42457140362596998732007-04-12T08:31:00.000-07:002007-04-12T08:31:00.000-07:00ah, routines!

Right now, my work routine for when my office-mate Marcia is not at work is shot. Normally, I get the office to myself - do a little work, read a little blog, relax, listen to my music. This week, one of my co-workers has decided to take up residence at Marcia's desk and has thrown my routine off. I kinda wish he'd go back to his own office and let me get back to my routine.<BR/><BR/>Can't wait to see the photos from the show!<BR/><BR/>:^) Tiff*Tiffanyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02923664474360546706noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7417066.post-9678703217310689002007-04-12T07:57:00.000-07:002007-04-12T07:57:00.000-07:00I never realized how important my routine is to ge...I never realized how important my routine is to getting things done until it changed.<BR/>love the thoughts though...and lisa I wonder how much changing your routine so often puts things in a funk for a bit...or if that part is now a part of your routine.<BR/>shari - I love your look at the everyday...the ordinary that can be quite spectacular.<BR/>lovelyl.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7417066.post-37712383009251118532007-04-11T09:44:00.000-07:002007-04-11T09:44:00.000-07:00you make routine look and feel really good!!lisa, ...you make routine look and feel really good!!<BR/>lisa, love your bed and bathroom photos, even if this not your bed and bathroom ;)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7417066.post-72250289245426348872007-04-11T01:56:00.000-07:002007-04-11T01:56:00.000-07:00you got me really thinking about routines, and how...you got me really thinking about routines, and how I am a different person onnholiday, with entirely different routines.<BR/><BR/>i feel so glad to be away from my old ones, yet when i return there is a comfort in hte familiar, like knowing the gas lighter will only work on the 3rd click and that the front burner will flare up and singe my eyebrows if i don't automatically lean back.<BR/><BR/>my routine is all out of whack just now with this damn neuralgia keeping me bedbound, and it makes me really aware of routines i didn't know i had, but which i will appreciate more when i return to them.Callyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11276876280803790049noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7417066.post-22285936476851591422007-04-10T23:38:00.000-07:002007-04-10T23:38:00.000-07:00I agree on the relaxing Sunday morning and making ...I agree on the relaxing Sunday morning and making yourself a huge cup of latte of with loads foamy milk.

(home... the place where i know where the coffee is...) and my routines are so different now than e's... his are determined by the academic calendar and mine by 9 to 5... for now! xo to both of you...amishahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05153910403783107480noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7417066.post-60085990506369101942007-04-10T12:12:00.000-07:002007-04-10T12:12:00.000-07:00Oh Routine.

Oh dishes. Why do two people create sooo many? And why do little children love playing, "doing the dishes?" Shower routine...Hair, ears, face exfoliate, legs exfoliate, shave, rinse hair, condition, scrub, ears, face, body diligently, legs again, pumice feet, rinse conditioner, scrub again. The whole thing is so exhausting.

Even if I have to drag myself to the food bins because it's so late, I must do it.
