I studied economics. There's a widely accepted concept of 'disposable income'. That's how much money one has to spend "on a whim". So how much time per week do you think to have to do with however you like.
Consider that humans are 'social animals'. The worst punishment is solitary confinment- which leads to insanity. We need to socialize with other people as much as wee need sleep and food. So socialization, to a large degree is not 'disposable' time- we have to socialize, to some degree.
So, there are 168 hours in a week. We spend 56 hours sleeping. 40 plus hours at jobs. __ hours 'decompressing' (relaxing) after work. Around 20 hours grocery shopping/cooking/eating/digesting & relaxing after meals. We spend hours getting dressed and undressed, doing laundry. We spend some time each week shopping/doing errands. If ya got kids well there's a big chunk of hours.
So tell me, how many hours on average per week do you calculate that you have as totally 'you' time?

This question causes memories to become as vivid as the clearness of the day. Speaking honestly, in terms of time management, it would be listed as free time. There is no value affixed and we are not legal tender. But quality time is time well spent.

I think I get about an hour a day, 5 minutes before everyone wakes up in the morning, 10 minutes after everyone leaves, 30 minutes when I get home from work while everyone is getting changed and doing their own thing and 15 minutes at bedtime. Not bad huh?
