Morning Routine

 

Even before we are up, our house is preparing for our day. An hour before one of us has to get up, if it is winter and calling for heat in the house, the heat will already be set to our comfort level. The kitchen light comes, a report of the outside temperature, what day it is, and the status of the alarm is said over the house speakers. The door to our garage unlocks and the indicator lights show that too.

As my wife logs out, the house says good bye to her, tells us the garage door opened, and then sets a "flag" in the program so when she comes home from work the garage door will open for her as she drives in. Once and awhile the UPS driver comes just at that time, and the garage door still opens. I could change that, but she is usually home within a few minutes any way. If no one is home, then the house knows this and won't open the garage door.

If it is a non work day, holiday, or weekend, the house door unlocks later, and the lights also don't go on as early. I have my own business at home, and if it is a day for work, the business door also unlocks. But if it is my birthday or Christmas time, the door stays locked and the house tells us that.
