My morning routine

So each morning I am awakened around 5 am to the howls of Delia my 3 month old Berner. She needs to go out. I lay in bed thinking, "do I let her cry or do I go down and save myself the extra work of cleaning out her crate?" I usually get up. Well, once that happens, everyone has to go out. So out goes Fiona and Kendra ( who the last two nights has pooped in her crate) Roxie who barks at everyone, Willow, Frieda and Shiloh. (Shiloh is visiting for Tanner).. So Tanner has to wait to go outside until Shiloh comes back in. While they are out, I begin the puppy process. I make their bowl. Than I move 7 puppies into the clean xpen where they eat. While they are eating, I clean up their box and put down new papers and start the laundry. I let all the girls back in and Tanner goes out. I make up the big dog bowls and begin to feed them. TAnner in the kitchen, Roxie in the puppy room, Delia in her crate. Kendra, Fiona and Shiloh in their crates in the garage and Willow and FRieda outside on the porch. I gather up the bowls and wash them out. By that time the puppies have finished their meal and have (hopefully) pooped. I put them back into the clean box, where they will poop again. ( It is like their deal, they have to poop on the clean bedding) than I clean up their xpen to make it ready for them to go back in. 7 puppies out, 7 puppies in.. all day.. The washer never stops, the washing of the dishes never stops. Hopefully I can soon put them outside where some of the pooping will occur. This is why I don't go away and travel.. I could never explain this process to anyone..
