Making my home a Haven? My Home?

Well I came across something that may help me in the area of apathy towards my home. We shall see if this challenge helps get me in a better frame of mind. The thing is, I'm going to have to modify slightly, since I'm at work all day and I think this is a site for SAHMs and Homeschoolers. Worth a try I say. This is the first week's challenge.
So, morning routines huh?
Well usually I get up at 6:30, get into the clothes I laid out the night before, turn up our furnace so the noise masks my sounds and prevents me from waking up the kids. Brush teeth & hair, put on make up and then leave home around 6:45am. When I arrive at school I have an instant oatmeal and a cup of coffee then I check my plans for the day and do photocopying. So what should I add or take away from my mornings to make my home a haven? Here are some of the ideas I will try:

1. Leave "I Love You" notes for my DH & kids
2. Set out breakfast so it's ready when everyone else gets up.
   
3. Feed the dog on my way out so DH doesn't have to later.
4. Spend time on the way to work praying for our days

Can't quite think of 5, any suggestions are welcome. Here it goes...
