I am 55 years old, married with one son, aged 25, employed and living separately.
I wake up at 6 in the morning. At 6:30, I am out with my bicycle for a 45 minutes vigorous ride to the beach and back home.
At 8, I have the second cup of tea of the day and go through two newspapers.
I have my shower at 8:45 and breakfast at 9:00.
I work from home, and I am at my desk at 9:15
At 1:00 I have my lunch and lie down for 30 minutes reading news paper. A short while later, I doze off.
After a half hour siesta, I have my tea and am back at my desk at 3:00 PM.
I work until 6:00 and then I go to a near by swimming pool for a 45 minute vigorous swim.
At 7:30 in the evening, I begin to have my whisky on my bedroom balcony. My wife and I talk about the day during that time. I also make a few phone calls to my friends.
By 10:00, I have had 240 ml of whisky, I am reasonably tipsy and have my dinner. At 10.30 I am off to sleep. Thanks to the whisky, the moment I put my head on the pillow, I go off to sleep.
I seldom watch TV.
On Wednesdays, I go to my Rotary Club meeting. After the meeting, I drink with my fellow Rotarians and discuss mainly politics.
Once a week, I meet my friends – one is a doctor and other is a professor - over a drink and come back home in time to go to sleep.
I used to go to my club twice a week, but now I don’t go much because I do not find the conversation there interesting. I find being with my wife more enjoyable.
I do not like travelling.
I have a beautiful garden, and gardening is my hobby. It gives me great happiness.
I enjoy good health.
Now, what would you call this sort of lifestyle, boring or interesting?
