Open the blinds:
Where I've set up my office, area, is right in front of the window. I've made sure to be opening the blind everyday. It may sound small or obvious but even on the days when the weather has been dull, there have been a few, it's allowed more natural light to flood through. Especially since the clocks have gone back it's nice and bright the whole time I'm working and there's no need to put the light on.
Mix it up:
During this week I felt like I was slightly going mad looking at the same four walls so this week I’ve worked in a different room. Especially with it only being a 4 day week, I thought I’d work from a soft office and have a change of scenery. It’s been nice to have a change but I think next week will be back to normality and working from my office set up again.
Leaving the room:
On my breaks and dinners, I've been making sure to leave the room and not stay sat in the same place. It could be so easily done. just moving from office chair to sofa to then just sit and eat before moving back and carrying on. Most of my dinners, especially with the weather having being nice, have been spent either in the back garden or sat on your back step just enjoying the noise.
Healthy decisions:
Just because I can literally roll out of bed five minutes before I start work doesn’t mean I have too. I’ve still been making the choice and the effort to get up and get showered and dressed everyday *bar two*.
Another one that’s linked under this one is also sleeping routine. I’ve made sure to still go to bed and settle down at a sensible time rather than scrolling through Twitter or Instagram for hours.
I think the weirdest thing for me is that for me and John at least, have still got to have routine. We are still working, still having to continue with normal life despite everything that’s going on.
There we have it, the way I’m trying to stay sane in these crazy ass times!
Anyway, that’s another one done.
