Oh, you work in a coal mine or a factory? I always think it odd to hear people say they don't want to get in bed dirty from the day's activities. For most of us the day's activities involve little more than driving to work and sitting in an office all days.
I could understand this if someone worked as a car mechanic or outside in the heat all day.
When I worked full time I showered as soon as I got up; I didn't have a lot of time to dilly dally. Now, I get up, make my bed, feed the cat, have my coffee, get here on CD, then shower and go to work at 11 a.m. (2 days a week). On days I don't work I may shower even later, after I go to the gym. Occasionally I will take a bath at night.
Just because you don't get sweaty or dirty over the course of your day doesn't mean other folks don't. I always think it odd to hear people say "well, I don't do that, so it's weird that other people DO"....
I get up at 5:30 am M-F. I make breakfast for us both and a sandwich for DH to take to work. DH is taking his shower and what not then around 6:30 am I shower because at this point my DH has left to go to work. On weekends I get up around 8:30 am and maybe jump in the shower about 2 hours later.
I never had any desire to take a shower at any time other than at night so that I go to bed clean. After reading this thread I'm wondering if I'm in the minority in that I don't take a shower in the morning.
How do people eat breakfast before brushing their teeth?
Doesn't food taste different with morning breath?
I floss the night before, and brush with a little baking soda in the morning. After coffee, breakfast, whatever, I brush with toothpaste. If I'd wanted mint flavored coffee, I would have made that.
You guys have really patient cats. I don't feed my cat as soon as I wake up because I've already been forced to get up in the middle of the night to feed her. Also, I can't shower with the door closed because she likes to come in.

My son's a mechanic. His big shower of the day is after work.
While I've never worked a really dirty job, I still shower in the evening most of the time. After being out all day and around many people, I need to wash that off. I find it very relaxing, too.
Weekends, holidays, and vacations are all over the place.
On work days or days when I'm going somewhere, I'm showering within a few minutes of waking up. On non-work days or if I'm going to the beach or going surfing, cutting the grass first, etc. I don't shower until after I get home or once I'm done mowing the yard. Some people, like every girl I've ever been with, prefer to shower and put make up on before they go to the beach and then again after.
