Notes and tips

• Use past continuous (was/were + verb-ing) for actions in progress at a specific time.
• For multiple subjects (Mr. and Mrs. Anderson), use were (e.g., were having, were watching).
• 12:30 a.m. is typically written as 12:30 a.m. (with periods) in American usage.
• Punctuation: each line forms a complete sentence; end with a period.

If you want, I can tailor the verbs to a specific daily routine you have in mind, or provide an alternative set of completions.
