I reckon routine is definitely beneficial.
I ended up with a household of 4 adults with only 1 WFH 50%.
after all the weeds were pulled and sprayed, most fences fixed, firewood cut and stacked, calves gelded tagged and jabbed,
I started a creative farm project to keep the youngns occupied and sleeping well from hard work..
building a stonewalled terraced vege garden. pretty decent project, putting some young muscle to work collecting paddock rock and making concrete and laying rocks. probably collected and laid 25 tonne of rock?
its been great. dont go too nuts. big breaky about 0800, 2nd coffee about 0900
start work about 0930.
long lunch with the Toohey brothers.
knock off with a beer about 1600.
I dont have to crack the whip, I usually have to get whipped into action.
Friday is pizza and margarita night. everyone looks forward to it like its a game of footy or a big night out.
actually it ends up a pretty big night out.
we've taught the youngsters to play Euchre. Sat is card night. they want to play every night now.
funny. like the olden days.
time has slowed. horizons got smaller.
NZ sounding like the trip of a lifetime all of a sudden.
I could live like this IF there was footy, and if I could visit family interstate. Dont really care about restaurants or pubs.
my back misses swimming laps pretty majorly.
