Monday’s Monday Madness: How many hours do I spend per week on the following… These will be guesstimates, obviously, I don’t normally time myself…
1. Watching television Varies between 1-2 and 20ish depending on what else is going on. Normally, I’d say, somewhere around an hour a day, somewhat more on a Friday, somewhat less on Saturday (there is nothing on on Saturdays).
2. Sitting at the computer Yikes. Uhm. 45 or thereabouts.
3. Reading a book As many as possible… Say 10, maybe, on average – a lot of them simultaneously as the television-watching (that goes for the “sitting at the computer” as well, I use the tv rather than the radio as background noise).
4. House work Including cooking, 7ish, excluding cooking, perhaps 2, probably less.
5. Cooking Ah, 5ish, then. More if I’m having people over for dinner, but that doesn’t happen very often.
6. Eating I eat quickly, most meals take me five minutes or so, I try to spend a little longer over dinner, so say 3-4 hours of actual eating – but although I finish my food in five minutes, I still stay at the lunch table for half an hour, for example.
7. Driving Duh. None. I don’t drive.
8. Working outside of your home 37.5, according to my contract – tends to be a bit more than that, though.
9. Blogging Less lately, but perhaps a couple of hours.
10. Sleeping 7×8=56… I wish. Somewhere around 40-45 is probably nearer the mark.
Voice in my head: that 70ies group (?) singing “Near a tree by a river there’s a hole in the gound where an old man of Arran goes around and around” over and over and over again, which I’m getting heartily sick of
