  • Hi everyone,

  • I'm working at home now, so my daily routine has changed in the last few months.

  • Let me tell you about it!

  • From Monday to Friday, I wake up at 6:30

  • but I usually hit the snooze button a few times!

  • Right after I get up, I drink a big glass of water

  • and go to the bathroom.

  • I like to wash my face to help me wake up.

  • Then I put on some exercise clothes, because I like to do a home workout in my living room.

  • Just some cardio and weights.

  • A bit of exercise in the morning always helps me to get motivated for the day.

  • After I finish, I go back to the bathroom to shave and shower.

  • Then I have my breakfast in the kitchen.

  • Some days I have bacon and eggs, though I often have something lighter,

  • like yogurt with cereal and fruit.

  • One thing is certain – I always have coffee!

  • I start work at 8:00, and I work from home at the moment,

  • so I spend many hours in front of the computer.

  • My colleagues and I work remotely from all over the world,

  • but we communicate online all day long.

  • We also chat with our boss on our regular video call meetings.

  • They are all very reliable and easy-going, and we rarely have problems.

  • We make a great team!

  • I work until 5 pm.

  • Sometimes I lose track of time, so I set an alarm

  • to make sure I take regular breaks throughout the day.

  • When my alarm goes off, I stand up, stretch,

  • and refill my water bottle or make a cup of tea.

  • I also make sure I take some time to have lunch,

  • as well as a snack in the afternoon when I get hungry.

  • When my workday is done, I prepare dinner in the kitchen.

  • I make enough food to have leftovers for the next day's lunch.

  • I like to prepare different dishes, so it usually takes me about an hour.

  • While I cook, I listen to some music

  • or chat with my parents and friends,

  • then I eat dinner around 6 o'clock.

  • After dinner, I love going for a walk around my neighbourhood.

  • It's good to get some activity a few times every day!

  • When I get home, I shower again and then relax on the sofa.

  • I like to enjoy my hobbies in the evenings,

  • so I might read a book, watch TV or even play some video games.

  • I'm usually in bed by 10 o'clock,

  • and I often write about my day in my journal before I turn out the light.

  • It never takes me very long to fall asleep.

  • Most nights, I sleep like a rock!

  • On the weekends, I like to change my routine a little bit,

  • since I don't have to work!

  • I often do chores around the house, like cleaning,

  • laundry and grocery shopping.

  • I often meet up with my friends on the weekend too.

  • We might hang out at someone's house or see a movie at the cinema,

  • but we rarely go to bars or clubs.

  • They are too expensive!

  • Sometimes I visit my parents too,

  • but they almost never visit at my place!

  • I like to stay in some weekends as well.

  • When I do, I always order pizza and watch my favourite tv show for hours.

  • I know a lot of you are working from home now, just like me.

  • How has your routine changed?

  • Let us know!

  • Bye!
