Go down to Dunkin'. Grab a cruller, have an extra large, three Parliaments, take a big dump, that’s kind of the routine.

#325:30 wake up, dress and walk to the gym, workout, shower at the gym.
7:20 walk back home, walk the kids to school (at 7am my wife woke them up and prepare breakfast for them, she workouts in the evenings)
8:15 back home, unload dishwasher, breakfast with wife.
9:00 start working from home

#33Wake up around 8:30a. Make a pitcher of iced tea with 3 tea bags (no sugar or sweetener) for consumption throughout the day. Have a bowl of overnight oatmeal from the fridge. Weightlift in the garage for 1 hour. Come back and have a protein shake and supplements. Then start working from home around 12 (start working on my hobbies when unemployed like woodworking, metalworking, 3D modeling).

#34Here's a thread on the same topic from late 2023... https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=37385434
I answered in that one, and I see that things have slowed down for me a bit since then. My routine has been more in flux during November and December since we took a week of vacation, then had the holidays, and have been fighting colds. This time next year I'll be living in a new place, working a very different job, so I'm anxious to see what kind of routine I'll be able to establish then.

#35I'm an IT service manager / PM / last resource coder (on some things)
Wake up at 8.
Take the dog out (she does her business quickly, it doesn't take more than 5 minutes and then she's the one pulling to go home) and feed her.
Put the moka on the stove (the moka has been prepared the previous night), and while I wait (and then while drinking coffee and eating something sweet) play my usual list of light games (wordle, framed, strands, bandle (if the lady is up, since we play this one together, otherwise I'll wait for her to play it later)), go to the bathroom to do my business and wash up.
At 8.30 I sit at my computer to start work.
I check my mail, chats, see if there's any ticket that requires my attention, then the meetings start and the usual day of work begins.

#38Not a morning person. I stay in bed for 45min then (prepare myself + eat breakfast) in 10min then leave for work.
When I was out of a job I used to walk in the forest. I made and received calls from it and found a job. By doing (the things that felt bad) outside of my appartment they stopped feeling bad.

#39The first thing I do every morning is go for a walk. I don’t want the first thing my body does to be sitting, and I don’t want the first thing my eyes see to be print.
I feel you, exact same routine here.

#40On an ordinary morning I get up at 7:30 often I don't want to eat much, I drink a cup of tea, take medicine, pack my bags, then get to the bus stop at 8:20. Often I get a coffee and maybe some food at the cafe and I'm at the office at 9.
Astonishingly normcore for someone who isn't.
