It seems there are so many folks out there who function on 6 hours or less of sleep every night. How do they handle the sleep deprivation? Cheers to being well-rested as much as possible!<br /><br />And yes - I am very, very fortunate and blessed to have fitness classes available during the workday. It frees up a lot of valuable evening time. =)emmers712https://www.blogger.com/profile/15865493476823978890noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3081872231855122210.post-86522351512661262652015-08-10T09:22:42.318-05:002015-08-10T09:22:42.318-05:00Thanks Zenaida!

I think I've only read one "day in the life" by a professional blogger and it sounded like it had so much flexibility! Must be nice!!!<br /><br />Enjoy the peace and quiet right now before the school year starts back up!!!emmers712https://www.blogger.com/profile/15865493476823978890noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3081872231855122210.post-54385992271707076092015-08-10T09:21:10.061-05:002015-08-10T09:21:10.061-05:00Wow, 5 AM wake-up and running at 5:30 AM?

Heaven knows how they function on so little sleep, yikes!<br /><br />I have a standard 5-mile loop that I default to in my neighborhood. Starting at Halsted and Madison, I head west on Madison to Damen, then south on Damen to Roosevelt, then east on Roosevelt to Halsted, and then back north on Halsted to Madison. It's basically one giant square! The grid system in Chicago is wonderful. =)emmers712https://www.blogger.com/profile/15865493476823978890noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3081872231855122210.post-25274528181383320002015-08-10T09:15:53.780-05:002015-08-10T09:15:53.780-05:00I can imagine that in your line of work, every day...I can imagine that in your line of work, every day is unpredictable and every day brings some new challenges!!! But cheers to the routine of wine with dinner every night.

No, I don't want to read about a professional blogger's day. :-) Have you read any of them? <br /><br />My days are not too exciting right now.

But there's no way in hell I'd be able to stay up til 11. I'm in bed by 9:30 so I guess it evens out. I'd love to know what a good running route around your place is. I know someone who is now working VERY close to your building. : )Teamarciahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03843904545493985865noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3081872231855122210.post-32354299221901693862015-08-07T18:39:51.766-05:002015-08-07T18:39:51.766-05:00There is very little routine to my day!

I always start the day with a workout (except on rest days), there is work (but it starts at all different times) and who knows what the day will bring... The most routine is in the evening when I have my wine and dinner...then I go to bed...LOLWendy at Taking the Long Way Homehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09934786207724059919noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3081872231855122210.post-35567934727730678402015-08-07T14:57:55.974-05:002015-08-07T14:57:55.974-05:00Thanks Courtney!

Little do they realize that Excel does all the work. =D<br /><br />Thanks for the kind words on the state of my office! I feel better and more streamlined when my workspace is clean. I think it contributes to increased productivity. <br /><br />I LOVE Snoopy, too!!! The Peanuts cartoons are so classic!!! I used to watch the Charlie Brown specials on TV all the time as a child!<br /><br />Would love to join Weekly Wrap! Thanks for letting me know!!! I look forward to hearing more details!!!emmers712https://www.blogger.com/profile/15865493476823978890noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3081872231855122210.post-54204948126823190602015-08-07T10:22:06.467-05:002015-08-07T10:22:06.467-05:00I work in accounting/finance as well.

If you are looking for a place to recap your week or weekend (or really whatever you want) I'm co-hosting a new linkup called Weekly Wrap.

I am very anti-paper so I'm fortunate that my company does almost everything electronically! (Incidentally - you can't see it in the picture, but the one personalized item I do display at my desk is a "Let's Go Blackhawks" sign. =) ) <br /><br />Yay for later lunches!!! It really works!!!<br /><br />I would love to hear more details about your typical day!!!

I'm up around 5:30 every morning. :-( *tears*<br /><br />Like you, I have an equally glamours work life, though my desk is much more ... Decorated. Are you not allowed personal items at your desk, or are you just super tidy? My desk is a war zone compared to yours, and I actually thought I was fairly tidy. <br /><br />Also, I'm with you - later lunch, faster afternoon.
