Weekly Expenditures

like sand through the hourglass . . .

This is an attempt to chart the regular weekly usage of my time. Quick math tells me that the majority of my waking hours during the week are spent at work. A clear majority of my work time is spent in one chair staring at one computer screen.

When I calculated the time remaining after working, driving, sleeping, and walking to work, I was surprised. It seemed I did not have that much free time, so I went to work on determining what I was doing.
