1. Nothing. But there's often a stroller or baby carrier in there. And maybe a shovel.

2. Wake up when my wife gets up. Lie in bed for an hour playing on my phone until my daughter wakes up (she's usually in bed with me). Get her breakfast, wait for my mom to show up. Shower, talk to them, leave for work. 

3. It'd be cool to learn to sew and/or knit.

1. What do you keep in the trunk of your car?
A stroller, blanket and spare tire (with all the stuff that you need to change the tire).

2. What’s your morning ritual like?
Hang out with DS in bed for about a half hour, get myself ready for the day, make DS's breakfast, sit him down to eat breakfast, let the dog out, feed the pets, change DS and finally get myself breakfast. I have to feed and water the pets while DS is in his high chair otherwise he likes to eat their food with them and play in the water lol.

3. If you could learn one new skill today, what would it be and why?
I'd like to learn to sew.

1. What do you keep in the trunk of your car? A spare tyre, and all the things needed to change a tyre, empty shopping bags, a first aid kit and a couple of beach towels. In winter there's also a snow shovel.

2. What’s your morning ritual like? I wake up at seven, shower, get ready eat breakfast, then out the door by eight to get the tram.

3. If you could learn one new skill today, what would it be and why? I'd like to be better at DIY. I can't even paint without making a complete mess of the room.

I'll play today.

1. What do you keep in the trunk of your car?
Stroller, grocery bags, and other random stuff.

2. What’s your morning ritual like?
We bring R in bed with us around 5-6am so usually my wake up consists of being smacked in the face by him, followed by being trampled on as he goes after our cat. Then it's get him ready and me ready. Unless it's a Wed or Thurs; those days I'm SAHM so it's pj's till after morning nap.

3. If you could learn one new skill today, what would it be and why?
I really want to learn to knit too. I may try my hand at it and see if I can make a baby blanket.

1. What do you keep in the trunk of your car? ER road side safety kit, spare tire and accessories and pretty much nothing else. I prefer having am empty trunk.

2. What’s your morning ritual like? It's the same everyday; wake up, take thyroid medicine, wash and moisturize my face, take the dogs out to potty, put on my make up while watching something on netflix, prepare my lunch, brush my teeth, style my hair and then get dressed.

3. If you could learn one new skill today, what would it be and why? Mechanics. I would love to be able to maintain and fix things on our cars as necessary.

1. Nothing.

2. Wake up, shower, lotion (this is super important), blow dry my hair while catching up online, watch a video while I apply my make up and brush my teeth, get dressed, finishing touches, smoothie and out the door.

3. French braiding my bangs. What can I say, I dream big.

Right now in the way back of my car lives a set of jumper cables, 2 boxes of old books, a sled , a box of random horse stuff, a pinecone wreath, a clarinet and some other weird stuff

My morning routine? I get out of work at 0630> Head to my Moms to pick up the man, crash for about an hour, or help him get ready, depends-take him to school go home go to bed till 1:45 and go pick him up. Sometimes I wash my face and/or brush my teeth along the way. Sometimes I lay down on my bed in my uniform, and wake up in it.I try to change clothes before picking him up so I dont seem totally deranged.

Id like to speak French well.

1. What do you keep in the trunk of your car?

Currently, a giant zappos box filled with a much smaller shoebox containing tux shoes that Sweetie has been meaning to return for 6 months. Also a box of fruit leather, a box of granola bars and some other random crap.

2. What’s your morning ritual like?

Snuggle Sweetie, hit snooze, snuggle Sweetie, hit snooze, snuggle Sweetie, fling self out of bed, make tea and instant oatmeal, sit on the couch eating and then drinking, and then taking a micro nap until 7:15, then get up, brush teeth (while simultaneously finding clothes to wear), wash face, get dressed, grab lunch and then fly out the door at 7:27.

3. If you could learn one new skill today, what would it be and why?

Well, based on my response to number 2, I should really learn to wake up and function in the mornings.... But I'd really just love to be fluent in American Sign Language. ETA: Why?  Because I use it a lot at work and I just love it.  I talk to myself in baby-ASL pretty much constantly.
