I get up work, have a cup of tea, do lots of things after that including working and eating, late in the evening I have a few glasses of my favorite alcoholic beverage, and then I hit the sack. Fun routine, eh?

Merry Boxing Day!

First to post today because Christmas Eve, Christmas and Boxing Day are just like any other regular day here. My Christmas period here is the New Year from December 31st to January 3rd, which I am looking forward to very much.

I can’t stand routine and monotony. Doing the same thing every day makes life boring. I have set up my life to reduce routine to the minimum. I work where I want to work, when and with whom I choose to work. That’s one of the reasons freelancing works well for me.

Happy Boxing Day for those of you who celebrate it (here in Portugal it’s just a normal Saturday)!

Routines? Don't we all have them? Dec 26, 2015

I make tea when I wake up and take it back to bed for a short while as I think about getting into gear.

But is that what the question is really about? Somehow I doubt it, but I'm no mind-reader (as I keep reminding my clients).

I'm of the same opinion. Even cardinals (the bird) have routines. Also, finches routinely look for seeds, grubs, etc. A pack of coyotes routinely howls (at the moon?) every 4-6 weeks across my window.

Dear poll supervisor: please aim higher. I mean, higher than 50 IQ points. Thank you.

It depends... Dec 27, 2015

Of course, it depends on the amount of work I have. When I do have work for the full day, I usually have a routine, but it's not a rigorous one.
