In trying to integrate daily meditation into my routine, I've  realized that it's not so much about good intention, as it is about  figuring out what works.  I can *intend* to do it sometimes between when  I wake up and leave for work, or even sometime between when I wake up  and go to bed, but in the endless list of mundane things "to do", it is  not likely.  So what works?  For now at least, I need routine.  And just  after waking up seems the best way to make it a priority.  So  I'm now allowing myself a cup of tea and the time it takes to write down  my dreams upon waking, but no computer or other distractions until  later.
I meditated for 15 minutes, which I was surprised to find that it  was not nearly as long as I'd have liked even though I'm out of  practice.  Going to try for 25-30 minutes a day.
