M-F 5:45 a.m. - get up, grab coffee, take a shower, pack lunch, pay attention to the "kids" (4 cats), refill bird feeders and bird bath outside.
MWF mornings I do a quickie workout with free weights, squats, core strengthening exercises.
8 a.m. arrive at work, boot up computer and fix breakfast (plain oatmeal with skim milk, raisins, cranberries, almonds and walnuts).
8 - 4 p.m. - Supervise a teaching staff of 20 and plan curriculum & instruction for a federally-funded program through the local public school system. They try their best to keep me after 4 most days.....
4 p.m. - Drive home (15 miles, very cycling-unfriendly roads).
TWTh 5:30 p.m. - ride 20 - 30 miles, if there are no thunder storms in the area
M & F - Walk about 3 miles or work in the yard; do laundry, whatever...
Michael and I take turns cooking dinner.
We have no TV antenna or satellite connection but we do get Netflix and watch a movie or two a week. We have no internet service at home (waiting for the local wireless company to put up a tower that will reach us on our side of the mountain).

Weekends - up at 6:30; long rides both days, weather permitting
Evenings spent with friends - usually cycling buddies.

If weather does not permit riding outside, then we throw the bikes on the trainers and plug in our ipods.
