Martha has a consistent morning routine. Being a mother of two sons, and not exactly a morning bird, Martha set up her morning routine in order to be as efficient as possible. She made it so that the family wakes up as late as possible, while still having time to get dressed, have breakfast, and get to school and work on time. 

In order to complete all these tasks, Martha has to wake up no later than 7:30AM. When her alarm goes off, the first thing she does is turn over to wake up her husband, Jeff. Getting out of bed together, they go to the kid’s room to wake them up. Martha then heads to the kitchen to make some oatmeal while her husband cuts the fruit. Within a few minutes, breakfast is both served and eaten.

By this point, it is almost surely 8:00AM which means the family needs to rush to get the boys to school by 8:30AM. Luckily, the school is only a five minute car ride away. Once everyone is dressed and the homework is in the schoolbags and the laptop is in the briefcase, Martha and the kids say bye to Jeff and run to the car. Somehow, they always arrive to school before the first bell rings and Martha arrives to work right on time.
