How do you waste the most time every day?
My wife and I have a daily routine. Every morning, we “Wordle” while having our first cuppa of the day, accompanied by toasted tea cakes or toasted muffins.
We are a little competitive, each of us gloating over who has the longest winning streak.
Once we have finished wordling, my wife will move on to reading her latest Kindle based book. I, in contrast, will complete my daily Soduku, Codeword, and Crossword puzzles. Just recently, I have also added Quordle to my daily routine.
Only once I have completed my word puzzles do I join my wife and immerse myself in my latest fiction choice.
Of course, this all gets booted into touch by the demands of family and friends.
Somewhere in there, we manage to find time to garden, travel and socialise.
But here’s the conundrum, being retired means that we have plenty of spare time. At the same time, due to our advanced age, we have less and less time left.
So, we get to choose how we spend our time. None of it is wasted, just spent. Wisely, or otherwise.
