I just thought about it, people, and I realized that I work a lot. Here is how my day usually goes during these summer vacations:

9 am – 10 am – I do my athletic activities and eat oatmeal. What choice  do I have if it’s so horribly hot and I have a tendency to get hypertensive in summer?

10 am -11 am – teach my online course (moderate discussions, answer emails and questions, etc.)

11 am – 12 pm – work on my manuscript

12 pm – 1 pm – lunch and blogging

1 pm – 2 pm – work on my manuscript

2 pm – 3 pm – grade student assignments in my online course

3 pm – 5 pm – do research for my manuscript, look up new sources, read them, organize the bibliography, plan the writing

5 pm – 6 pm – cooking

6 pm – 7 pm – a break

7 pm – 8:30 pm – go for a walk with N.

8:30 pm – 12 am – working on my translation

I think that since I work so hard I should stop feeling guilty about my plan to read the entire Palliser Chronicles by Trollope.
