I have almost no time left during a week. You left off many things, though. Meal preparation and clean-up uses up a lot of time for me. Housecleaning? Driving other places besides work? Paying bills? Interacting with others via the phone, computer, etc? Grocery shopping? You start adding up incidentals and the day is gone! Michael,

There are 168 hours in one week. 56 hours sleeping @ 8 hours per night 40 hours working @ 8 hours per day, five days per week 3.5 hours per week getting ready for a typical day @ 30 minutes per day 2.5 hours per week commuting to and from work @ 15 minutes each day, each way (since I live near work and work afternoon hours) This leaves 66 hours per week to do other things. Add in: 2 hours per week for a typical worship service. (This is a hypothetical. Actual time taken out of my day when I go to church is about four to five hours if I include drive time.) 5 hours per week of exercise (which I plan to do.) 14 hours per week, hypothetically, if I prayed two hours a day for revival. :-) That leaves 45 hours per week. I have not included meals or Bible study or anything else corporate with the Church. I tallied how much time I spend on “essentials” during the week. There are 168 hours in one week.
