I'm generally a timely person, if it was just up to me. But I have a perpetually late husband that seems to not know the value of time. I have to start nagging him at least an hour and a half before our designated departure time because it takes him a long time to get ready. Still, I have had to leave him a couple of times to make it to church on time (he will show up about 20 - 30 minutes later), but I am usually more lenient w/ social functions, although it pains me to be.
The other monkey wrench in my timely program is a 3 year old child known as my daughter. No matter how much time I seem to allot to get us ready and there on time, we still end up late. There always seems to be some drama (can't find her shoes, can't find her shoestrings, I want to wear jeans, I want another pancake, take her shoes and sock off in the car, I want some juice, and the list goes on). She has not learned the value of time just yet, but I'm working on it.
