👩‍💻✨A day in the life - Work, Work, Work✨👩‍💻

*Based on my 9 - 5:30 pm shift working from home*

7 am - Wake up:

I wake up at 7 am and pop my Apple watch onto my wrist. I have this great checklist app that has all of my tasks for the day so I head downstairs for some breakfast. Potato waffles and scrambled eggs. (I used to love scrambled eggs on toast but I am not a fan of gluten-free bread so waffles are a great substitute!). The next task on my watch is taking my vitamins, one of these is a powder and I take this in some green tea. I take a few vitamins to help with my PCOS symptoms like Inositol and multi-vitamins.

7:45 am - Bath, Brush teeth, Wash hair & face:

Once I have had my vitamins for the day I head back upstairs to run a nice warm bath.

I love a bath, I feel like I am always rushing around and to take the time to lay and soak. After my bath, I then wash my hair. While I wash my face and brush my teeth I keep my hair in a towel. Next on the list is make up, if I can be asked I will do my make up. As I like to workout once I've finished work I find it pointless to put make up on as I just have to get it off again. However, if I have a zoom meeting I will make an effort haha! After that, I dry my hair and if I'm running late and my hair is still damp I will pop it into 2 plaits.

9 am - Work, Work, Work:

Between doing my hair etc and working I usually catch up on Facebook & Instagram as well as thinking about what I would like for my lunch and dinner. I like to plan these in advance to stop me from eating between meals or going for quick unhealthy options as I don't have much time to eat during the day. I start at 9 am and I catch up on emails from the evening before as well as joining any zoom calls or actions needed for the morning. By around 1:30 pm - 2:00 pm, I normally have some lunch. Uncle Bens 2 min rice or gluten-free pasta are normally my go to lunches as they're super quick and easy to make, I would make pasta the night before but gluten-free pasta cold isn't the nicest tasting thing I've ever eaten I have to say.

The afternoon is more work and that consists of phone calls, amending holidays as well as doing quotes and making bookings. Each hour I like to get up for a couple of minutes and walk around in my garden as fresh air always helps me recoup and feel refreshed.

5:45 pm - After Work Walk:

I am doing my virtual Mount Everest challenge which works out doing 1 mile a day to complete the challenge in the month, so every evening I like to get out for a small walk.

Days off are good as I can get more miles in but I don't like walking in the dark so I tend to stick to a mile in the evening. I use my Apple watch to track my exercise which is good as it counts all the miles and the time it takes too. I normally walk with my sisters as by this time they've finished school work and whatever else they need to do so it's nice to spend some time with them.

6 pm - Dinner:

After walking me and my family sit down to a meal together.

From Pork chops to fish and chips on Fridays each day is different but this is time for us to all be together and discuss our day. I don't work 9-5:30 every day but we always try to keep our mealtimes the same. After dinner, I will then watch some Netflix or write a blog. I sometimes do adult colouring books too which is so relaxing.

Thank you guys for reading another blog!

I will write a day in the life for when I'm not working too and post that soon for you all to read.

Take care.
