Since we're going with the 'typical' evening at home I'm going give you my typical 'weeknight' at home.
I get to work at a ridiculous hour.
5:30 a.m.
The main reason is traffic. I have a 40 minute drive and leaving later than 6:00 is just asking for a 90 minute drive.
Especially during the winter/rainy months.

| Phoebe post breakfast nap. She fixed the couch all by herself |
That means I get up at 3:20 a.m.
The bonus?
I'm on the road home by 2:00 p.m. and rolling thru my front door about 3:00 p.m.
So my evening starts at 3:00 p.m.
Let Phoebe out.
Putter a bit.
Go thru the 'i don't wanna workout' argument
Put in my 21 day fix DVD or hop on the treadmill or stream my yoga from Amazon.
4:00-4:20 Phoebe is ready to be fed. Like really ready and will let you know, repeatedly until you feed her.
That's about when I start making our dinner as well.
I try to eat by 5:00 - 5:30 and start winding down for the evening by 6:00.
D usually arrives home somewhere in there, does his workout, eats his dinner, and lucky me, he does the dishes... :)
Shower, cruise the tv, knit for a while.
7:00 p.m. I turn off the T.V. turn on my sound sleep app and read my book till about 7:30-8:00.
I'm currently reading the new Jack Reacher The Midnight Line and book 17 in the Kay Scarpetta series The Scarpetta Factor. One thing I can say for my Kindle, it makes it really easy to cruise thru book series, and I love it! I can't wait for Maui in January. I'm going to load up the Kindle.
Somenights we go out.
Some nights we have hockey game.
Monday thru Friday is pretty routine though and I get cranky when my routine gets disrupted.
So does Phoebe.
So a typical evening at home, it's not very exciting, but it is what I do.
Right now I'm not doing my workouts from 3:00-4:00 as I'm getting the house ready for Mama's visit.
There's 'friends coming over' clean and then there is 'mom coming to stay' clean.

It's a de-cluttering, curtain hanging, furniture moving, dusting extravaganza!
The Guest Room is also my Yarn Room. Typically it's covered in yarn. I have that mostly contained.
Good thing mom is a knitter.
Happy Thursday ya'll
What's your typical night at home like?
