Day in the Life - 2022


Every year I do a DITL (I skipped 2018 and 2019 but I've been back on track for a couple years now). Through the years, I photograph an entire day, usually around Valentine's Day, simply because that happened to be the day that I started it all in 2011 or so. So, there is like a decade of a typical day in February to look back on. Here's this year's.


I wake up at 6:45 a.m. to get the kids ready for school and myself ready for work.


It's colder than usual this week.


I keep a log of how much water I drink a day to try to get it up to 8 glasses, though I've since learned I don't actually have to drink 8 glasses a day. That said, I continue to be chronically dehydrated no matter how much I drink, so I keep going.


Kids' breakfast.

         

And lunch.



Then I take the dog for a walk.

We see Ibis in our yard


And bark at neighbors.


Then I get dressed for work as the girls finish eating and getting ready.


I drive to work while already in a meeting. I'm supposed to be there at 8:30, but we have a deal while the girls are in middle school that I will be a little late because we never know if the bus is going to pick them up these days.


Welcome to my office.






Impromptu meeting with sales.




Then my production team and I make and edit a commercial for a local shoe store. That's Gator and Jon.


Jon teaches, Gator takes notes, I oversee.



My work to-do list for the day.


This is a sponsorship promo spot I'm working on called Scholar Athlete of the Year. We partnered with an attorney's office to present one high school athlete with a $5,000 scholarship to college. That's my writing on the check, lol. We did the presentation, then I produced a :30-promo about it. It airs starting Monday.


I tweak the script before final edits.


I take the first half of my lunch break to work on a story for a freelance client about the Watchman procedure, in which doctors place a device into the heart through a vein in the groin.



Then I go home for the second half of my lunch break. I love these satellites. We still use them. They're a lot more reliable than the internet, tbh.




Once home, I grab some Advil because I have a raging headache.


I set the night's menu so everyone knows what we are having for dinner.


Say hello to the dog.


Carlos is also having lunch. I start running the vacuum in a vain attempt to clean this house a little.


He works from home, so back to the office for him.




I water our dying houseplants.


Then I have to run back to work because I have a meeting, so I grab a quick bagel and take it with me.


Conference call time.


This is pretty interesting. It's one of the steps of how TV programming actually gets on your television. We program the shows and the ads through a localized system, then I go through and put in the promos for the stations: stuff like clips of shows you'll see later, local news topicals, weather, sports teasers, etc. I fill the rest of the time on the logs. I send it in, and master control goes and finds the clips, puts them together, and plays it all on air.


Then I have a corporate Teams meeting on marketing and promotion.


I use those computer glasses sometimes lol


I eat a snack. (This was also breakfast. Dry Life for life)


Then I fill out the sponsored content log. This is where our news programming gets segments sponsored for money by clients. Like when you see "tonight's sports brought to you by Subaru" or whatever. We have to mark that down meticulously so that news and commercial does not get mixed up.


That's it for my day. Got some of the stuff done. Time to go home.


I find my children already there. Natalina bought an anime poster at the book fair and she is stoked.


Dulce hangs with the dog.


Off to the gym for a Body Combat workout. Fellow instructors Jen and Kate say hi!



I teach the standing option when we do pushups and burpees because I'm lucky.


By the time it's over, it is dark out.


I say hi to my lovelies. And tell them to do their homework.


Then I get ready to make dinner.



A quick change of clothes but no time for a shower...yet.


I listen to my podcast while making the food.


Carlos reads.


Hit my move goals while chopping peppers.


I mix up the ingredients, then throw them in a casserole dish and bake for 20 minutes.


While dinner cooks, I sort some laundry.


Dinner is served!


And eaten!



After dinner, we are regaled with stories from the school day.


Then I walk the dog again.


I call my brother just to check in, while we're on the walk.


Come home, shower, fall into bed.


But just because I'm ready, doesn't mean the girls are. One last selfie for the day.


If you want to check out our DITLs through the years, they can all be found here. It's interesting to see the changes. This is the first year since I've been doing this that I have been working outside the home, for instance.

  5. This landing page by IAMTHELAB Consulting doesn’t barrage visitors with paragraphs of text. Instead, it gives the design room to breathe and includes a brief description of the coming site. Check out this blog post for 30 examples of great coming soon landing pages. Once you’ve had two or more buyers come to you with the same issue, write a standard template that you can use, and edit as needed, for future inquiries in that genre. Ship from your home (or wherever you’re working on your business).
    Launching mid-to-large scale ecommerce operations will require more planning and a detailed technical and operational roadmap. That makes it easy to navigate the technical side of designing an ecommerce website. Of course, coming up with an ecommerce business idea is just the beginning. Print-on-demand is a type of dropshipping, so this ecommerce model drastically reduces the financial risk of starting an online business.
    The fitness industry has always been a hot topic or trending merchandise to sell to consumers. To get an edge, you'll have to tap into the market with influencer marketing. Tech support businesses are a great fit for anyone who has specific knowledge of a particular computer software, or general knowledge of how computers work. Every business today uses computers, but they don’t have the time or expertise to troubleshoot every computer issue that arises. Startup costs are manageable, and generally stay around $5,000 with a few thousand more per year for marketing. Growth potential for a web development company is unlimited.
    Ecommerce Business Ideas For 2022:
    The biggest drawback of becoming an internet researcher is the challenge of finding consistent work. You’ll need to put in some hard graft to curate an extensive network, self-promote and market your services. You’ll also need astute judgment skills to assess the authenticity and legitimacy of the information you find online. To earn money by user testing, all you need is a computer and microphone. You can find products to test through sites such as UserTesting, Webusability or TestingTime and can earn up to £50 per test. Vendors will send you a product, such as a website, app or piece of software, accompanied by some instructions. https://www.reviewengin.com/10-ecommerce-business-ideas-2022/

    Beware of Bitcoin investment schemes where scammers, posing as experienced "investment managers," lure investors with tales of massive cryptocurrency profits. Promising hefty returns, these fraudsters ask for an upfront fee, only to vanish with your money, leaving you with empty promises. They may even ask for personal information under the guise of fund transfers, risking your cryptocurrency security. Don't let the allure of quick wealth cloud your judgment. Always verify the credibility of those you're investing with and remember, if it sounds too good to be true, it probably is. Stay informed, invest wisely, and protect your digital assets.
