My times have moved around recently 

 

And although the ability to decide when and where you work is one of the many things I really value about running an online business 

 

It’s weird how difficult it is to get used to stepping out  of a groove! 

 

My partner runs a driving instruction business

 

And I tend to work around the hours she works so that we get to spend more time together 

 

And because I like having the place to myself when I’m working

 

For a long time she worked on Monday’s, Tuesday’s, Thursday’s and Fridays 

 

Tuesday nights for us was “date night”.

 

We’d cook something special or go out for dinner, have a few drinks and watch a movie.

 

But for whatever reason, her hours have adapted and she has been working on Sunday’s and Wednesday’s 

 

So date night is a Sunday or Monday

 

Makes no actual difference to me but it is still a little disorienting - you start to forget what day it actually is! 

 

I think this is a hangover from many years of working 9-5 (8-7 more like) 

 

It’s decades of conditioning which, although I haven’t done that for close to 10 years now, seems to still be in there.

 

It’s a little like jet lag 

 

Still, its a very small price to pay for the freedom it actually represents. 

 

And, as I’m often asked - do I ever miss the 9-5 routine? 

 

No. 

 

Except maybe for that snack van I used to go to which I indulged in on Friday when I attended an event near my old office! 

 

 

 

All the best!
