I am a triathlete and I work with a coach. He posts workouts. I know that the workouts HAVE to be done in morning, otherwise they aren't happening. And since I need to do each and every workout if I want to race well, I have no choice but to do them. So, the alarm goes off between 5:30 and 6:00am. I workout and then get home by 9am. I do school with the kids in the morning. Housework stuff in the afternoon. Relax in the evening. Most days, I'm ready for bed by 9:30 and in bed by 10:00. For me, staying up late is not an option. I simply can't stay awake!

Well-I'm a shift worker-so my "routine" depends if I am on a day or night schedule.
On my normal days-I am up @ 6:00a-in bed by 10:00p most nights. When I am on my night shifts-I sleep for 4 hours in the daytime while the kids are in school, then 3 more in the evening, after dinner.
I only follow one tv show regularly, and even then there are some weeks I don't watch it. (most weeks I don't watch more than a hour per week, sometimes 2, so its rare TV interferes with my sleep......)
I exercise different times depending on whether I am working that day (or night if you will) or not.

Ok, where am I right now? Ibelieve.com? 
I am guilty of this, mostly from not wanting to face work the next day, so I will watch that one episode of Home Improvement. I will check one last time to see if there are any new messages. I will look up one last thing on the internet as well. So, yeah I am tired in the morning.

I am pretty good about keeping a routine. I have to get up at 5:30 to get to work... and I know I need 8 hours of sleep in order to be alert, so I go to bed at 9:30 (and I don't get home until 8:30!). Very rarely something will come up and I will stay up late or one of my kids will need to talk about something and I will stay up a little later. I would never do that for a tv show or anything, though.
On my days off, I will stay up/get up a little later (in bed 11:30-7:30), but still 8 hours, I don't sleep the day away or disturb the pattern too much.
I HAVE been having trouble sleeping the past few weeks and have been sleeping on the bus on the way to/from work. I still make myself follow the same routine, though.

There are times when I don't sleep well but I must be at work in front of my class dressed nicely and looking decent at 8 sharp on most mornings. So I have no other choice but to have a routine. I stay awake too late but then I sleep in when I find the time for it.
