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?

You are leading a normal life sir, there is nothing boring here.....i must say, your life is pretty interesting. Compared to my everyday lifestyle, your life style is a better one.
I m 25, i dont work, i dont do nothing much. I graduated when i was 21. I worked with my dad till 23, then i started my own company. Within 2 years, i developed my own business empire, i used to work in my office for 15 hours aday. Suddenly this year, i lost interest of everything, its just like i m a bummer now. I sleep all day, drink wine all night. Sometimes i dont even know what day, date it is....compared to my life, your life is way more interesting sir.....i will sort something out for me...

Does it matter to you what I think of this lifestyle?
Regardless, I say it's a nice one, especially after your 50s. Mind you, I have friends in their 30s who has this sort of lifestyle (minus the 25 year old son, of course), so it really depends on whether or not YOU like it.

I would call it a nice laid-back lifestyle. Something i would look forward to when I'm 50. But I would like to travel a bit too and meet more people and make life a little less monotonous :)

i think of your existence kind sounds like it extremely is somewhat recurring, yet no longer boring. in case you're satisfied and your spouse is satisfied and you're enjoying your existence the way it extremely is, it is quite effective. in case you get exhilaration from your place and your backyard, it is a superb component. it extremely is sweet to hearken to which you get exhilaration from spending extra time with you spouse than at your club, it is in all probability great on your marriage. You sound as in case you get exhilaration from you existence, and it extremely is your existence; so because it is the considerable component. You look satisfied, you are going to be eating a wee bit too lots alcohol, yet whilst your wellness is effective, i does no longer be too aggravating approximately it. You sound lots happier approximately your existence than lots of folk i be attentive to, or see on right here. Have a sturdy night.
