Rushing out the door...

I'm running a bit late this morning trying to get a million things done before getting to the office by 9am! 

I'm a morning person so I wake up early and do everything in those very productive hours before work - my workout, the cleaning, blogging, emailing, laundry, etc. 

But sometimes (...most times) I try to do way too much and find myself rushing to get out the door, like today! 

How about you? When are you most productive? Morning or night?

I'm so not a morning person. Bless your soul for being able to get everything done in the morning! I tend to roll out of bed, dry shampoo and freshen up, throw on clothes, get child ready for school and run like hell.

Can someone be both? I love to have everything done in the morning (and I'm also almost always running out the door because I try and do too much in the morning); and both thankfully and un-thankfully, my boyfriend enjoys waking me up at the crack of dawn as he searches for the laptop to watch the 400th episode of "Dexter". At the same time, I am a bit of a night owl...I'm always running ideas through my head right when I should be running to bed :)

I am a morning person, but I am also always rushing around the house to get to work by 8:30am. I am ALWAYS rushing out late. I think I get more done at night. I like to stay up late too! Ahhh! I just enjoy life and there is never time in the day!

I love waking up early in the morning. But is most productive at nights, approaching midnights actually. Striving to be a morning person, it's way much better for the health.

You pretty much summed up my life. I am ALWAYS rushing! I try to cram everything I need to do in the morning {even though I function better at night} and then run out the door!

This sounds familiar. :) I am a morning person, too. I try (and often can) do quite a bit in the morning. And yes, sometimes there isn't enough time for everything no matter how well you've planned things.

P.S. LOVE the first photo. The outfit is just so chic.

Definitely in the morning! I get up early, have a good breakfast, drink my coffee, and get goin'! I always feels more alert and sharp in the early hours.

Great photos!

So chic! Can I look like that everyday? :) I'm most productive in the morning, with a coffee in hand, and something sweet to jump-start my day. I love when I force myself to get up super early and enjoy the crisp morning air and the luxury of hearing nothing but the birds...it gets my mind going~

It's so fun to learn about everyone else's days and habits! It looks like productivity and creativity find us all at different hours!

It's funny because I actually used to be a night owl, but at some point during college that all changed. I think I realized I didn't have to do that to my body and started to force myself to prioritize going to bed early and started to feel much better!

Now, early mornings by myself and my cup of coffee are what I look forward to most in the day! That "me time" is so precious to me :)

I am a morning and night person...in the morning I love being up before anyone else, make my coffee, get laundry going, go through emails etc. I am not social first thing at all and enjoy the solitude; then I shower and get ready by 8am to get my boys off to school...I head back home and it's work time..In the evening I love when everyone goes to bed and I get "down" time...some of my most creative moments are then...
