The Time it Takes

We often seriously misjudge the amount of time it takes to do the things we do in our daily lives. Things that we think take no time at all take longer than expected. Things we dread doing (and thus avoid) actully take less time than we expect. To that end, I give you:

• Morning Routine: 45 minutes to an hour. (variable: Amount of exercise time. 12-20 minutes)
• Evening Routine: 15 minutes
• Vacuum the apartment: 10-15 minutes
• Wash a sink full of dishes: 25 minutes (Can take 40 minutes if there is a lot of dried on food or more dishes)
• Clear a forest fire: 90 minutes (obviousy depends on the nature and intensity of the fire)
