Seems that the year 2020 has been a blessing from God for me, I was sent the love of my life and I am doing many things for the first time. One thing that I am doing now is I don`t have a routine anymore and that is a first for me. Heck I would have the week planned... no wait, the year! It feels good to just ..... do. How about it, who lives by a routine?

I'm very happy for you. You have worked so hard for so long. I'm hoping that you have more time to enjoy life now. I have some informal routines, but they are very flexible. Are you still doing the landlady thing?

I just do, if I do not like to do what I had in mind the day before, I skip. I want to enjoy my retirement, no more stress.

Glad that you are happy and you can just go on and do as you please without having a routine. The main routine I have is coffee when I wake up and my husband meds.

I am a creature who has to have a routine, I thrive on that. I do not know if I could adapt to a no-routine lifestyle like you have. Well maybe I could, but would I live to tell is the question.

You know me up in the morning say my prayers and to my laptop to get ready for the day and see what work I have to do and that is every day but I think in the New Year I will also add some time for myself and my creativity I have been neglecting that and I know that will do me a lot of good

That's great this has been a wonderful year for you. I'm not surprised you would have the year planned. I'm glad you've shucked the routine. I like routine in some things but not everything.

I mainly have a routine. I like to know what I am doing. I tend not to be very spontaneous. Sometimes I wish I was more "spare of the moment," but it really doesn't work out for me. But glad to see you so happy,

I like to have a "soft" routine. Not locked in too rigidly. Able to do impulsively as well.

Well certain things are planned and thought of before. Yet a lot of other things are random. As for routine, my day job means, I have a routine of daily meetings and tasks.

I love being able to sleep in when no appointments or help is needed from someone, but I miss working I feel I retired too early. This year has been a trial but I'm looking through it all for my blessings.
