Daily Routine
Hello! I’m Lucy and I’m going to tell you about
my routine. Like many
people, I work and take care of my family. My
week must be very well-
organized so that we can arrange our schedu
les
properly. Otherwise, we would constantly be
rushed off our feet.
I get up at six o’clock every morning, have a

bath and get ready for work. At seven, my
children get up and I help them to get dressed
.
I make breakfast and we all leave home at eigh
t.
First, I take Dan to kindergarten and then I driv
e
Andy and Caroline to school. Fortunately, I star
t
work at nine. The company is close to school,
so I always arrive fifteen minutes early and star
t
getting my papers ready. At half past twelve
we
e d le ve l - have a lunch break. My workmates and I go
ad
to the

cafeteria on the first floor. We have a deal: nob

First, I pick up Andy and Caroline, and then Dan

John, my husband, comes home at quarter afte .
r five, and we all have a nice
cup of tea. Then, while Andy and Caroline are
doing their homework, Dan
plays with his toys, John cooks dinner and I tidy
up the house. At seven
o’clock, it is shower time and the little ones go
first. At eight, we are all
ready to share a delicious dinner. We always
eat homemade food. I’m hun-
gry! After dinner, the kids play for a while and
we watch the news on TV. At
ten, the kids go to bed. They always ask me
to read them a story before
going to sleep.
John and I generally stay up until eleven. We

chat about our day and make
plans for the weekend to get away from our dail
y routine.
