Schedules and Routines

[ewt]

On an ideal day, what would you get done? Include self-care activities (like hygiene and eating) and self-support activities (like working if applicable). Try to be realistic about what can actually happen in the course of a day. What would you need to do each day to never get behind in chores, to feel fulfilled and happy, and to maintain your relationships to your satisfaction?

On an average day, what do you get done? Include self-care and life-support activities as above.

On an emergency, oh-shit-everything-has-gone-wrong day, what are the essential things that you make sure you do? What is your bare-bones routine that you go out of your way to protect? What things from your above routines are "skippable" and for how long? Do you adapt by eating ready meals or by going in late to work? Do you skimp on sleep or shuffle chores to another day?

Details, details, details, please, if you will.

Something like:...

Typical start at home and end at home day and not broken day:Get up, snack, email/lj, breakfast, meds, bathroom selfcare, dress, day stuff, food, evening stuff, email/lj, food, hide a bit and/or random web stuff/reading/whatever, meds, sleep. Only will probably include various procrastination and rushing around.

If I'm not at home, meds and suitable food times come under essentials, but just about everything else may change. Email and the filtered-down LJ mobile view will probably be checked at some point.

I don't really have an ideal day, other then one that's been productive, not broken and not too draining.

Crap day: Hide most of the day, don't bother dressing, possibly go for a walk, not eat until I absolutely know I have to, spend far too much time on the interwebs.
