Alarm? I don't need no stinkin' alarm!

Today was the last day -- at least until September, that I'll wake up at 5:30 waiting to hear the shower go on. If it didn't go on before 5:45, I'd have to go down and wake our teenager. He was really good, though, this year. I only had to wake him once or twice all year. That didn't stop me from waking up before his alarm went off anyway. As soon as I heard the shower, I'd fall back asleep until my alarm went off at 6:05 to get him to the bus.
While I miss my days of sleeping well past the start of school, and I was NEVER a morning person -- ever ever ever --- I do like getting started that early. I got myself up and out the door, I usually wait to go for a walk or run till 6:45, then I'm home by 7:30 when my husband has to leave. That gives me time to make sure the other kids are washed, fed, dressed, packed, etc. and for me to jump through the shower. Try as I will, we still only "just manage" to get to where we need to be, when we need to be. If I'm running late, I concentrate on getting what needs to be done out of the way. If I'm ahead of schedule, I'll end up doing dishes and laundry. It just never ends, does it?
I hope I'm regimented enough to keep up with the "early riser" schedule over the summer. With the teenager working, I'd like to get my morning walk out of the way before anything. In my single days, I'd exercise after work. Now, forget it. So how do I manage to not "slack off" when we don't have to meet the school bus or school bell?
