The largest part of my life nowadays

I just had to  come back onto blogger in my "hectic"  schedule (sic!)  and   prove  that I have  plenty rest. 

I arrive at the little art and gift shop  I manage at  8.30  in the morning. I open,  set up my display  on the veranda and then I  plug in my laptop and...

wait...

and wait. 

the  first visitors to the center arrive at 11 am - no  earlier during the week.  On a  Saturdays customers start to arrive a little earlier.

I  also  don't work  in  a busy supermarket packing  shelves  or  standing at  a check-out all day.  No, I  sit  in front of my  desk  and  do '"other" things, like posting on  FB  or blogger  for  eight  hours a  day.

I'm  my  own  boss here  in  the shop so  there's no stress...

I  interact  with the other shopkeepers and the customers  so II'mm  not  lonely or isolated.  I do a taigalates (stretching-type)   class for  an hour  before  work once  a week.  I open  late that day  as the  artist's  wife is in class with me. I still  do my 5km  Parkrun every Saturday and  open late that  day.   

In  between I  go  to breakfast with  friends; once a month a business lunch with  Steve and  Estelle  (always enjoyable) and  tea parties with  friends. 

Every  day I  arrive home at 4pm  and  Skabby  and  I walk  on the farm.  This past  summer, I've  taken  him  out  at 7 am  every  day too.

Once a month I  have my nails and toenails  gelled. I  lie back  and relax for two  hours  while  Jessica treats me.

AND

This  is the cherry  on  top. 

Every single  night  - every  night  I  am  in bed  with  the   cats and a good  book...

...wait for it...

by 6.30pm.   

Tonight  is my only late  night  in  the  month  -  Probus - I get to bed by  10pm)

Soooo kind  folks;  

I  get  more than enough time off, recreation and rest. 

I've been posting about my activities to keep a record of my life.  I would like to continue to share what I'm  doing and  hope you all realize  that  I'm  not  running myself  ragged. I don't want to get put off by criticism on everything I've done and now am posting about. 

Pure boredom . This would be me if I didn't have other things to do in a very long day with very little work...
