Part of my daily routine [View all]

First off, the time difference in the Philippines is currently 13 hours. As an example, 11:00 AM Tuesday here is 10:00 PM Monday, EST in Boston and New York. It reverts to 12 hours when the clocks turn to EDT.

So, around 11:00 AM, after coffee and pastry, I sit for about an hour in the sun, by the pool. I sometimes play music, but often just enjoy the sounds of the farm. I'm in and out of the pool as I feel the urge. However, it is during this time that I think of my posting on DU. I sit in the tranquil atmosphere and think of a post I may have read in the morning and want to reply to or a new one I want to post as an OP.

After the post, I prepare lunch and take another dip in the pool and return to read the replies. This is not my whole day, but it takes up part of it. Thank you for being here for me.
