​Whether it’s waking up with a weird feeling behind the eyes because I’ve stayed up too late; coming downstairs to a dining table full of works-in-progress, summer camp drawings, event fliers and batteries (yes, batteries); or having the kids fight over the brown sugar and shovel a questionable amount into their oatmeal bowls…

Let’s just say, I’m a morning person, but getting out the door with my kids can leave me less than sunny.

I recently read a weird question about mornings: What makes you angry? The writer challenged readers to identify what exactly it is that makes them angry in the morning, and to find one solution–just one–for that anger-triggering thing.

I guess I’m an undercover angry person because I can think of several things that make me mad. In no particular order, here are five maddening situations that occur at my house in the morning, and the sanity-saving solutions that have worked for me.

I felt like once the kids were dropped off at daycare or school, the rest of my day was a B-R-E-E-Z-E even I had deadlines, demanding phone calls, tense meetings and back-to-back appointments. It took many conversations with my husband, but a clean counter with dishes & cooking stuff from the night before done, greatly impacted my sanity and ability to think clearly those harried mornings. Eventhough we are an empty nest household, I appreciate these tips!
