Good question!
As for waking up, that has stayed pretty much the same. Even on weekends, I usually wake up at 6:30 am. 7 am at the very latest. I wouldn't even need an alarm clock. In fact, I haven't been setting an alarm clock. I get up between the mentioned times and put breakfast on the table. I am always hungry at that time, perhaps because of my Seroquel XR. Then we go back to bed and cuddle. Often hubby falls asleep a bit again. I rarely do. This has been the same no matter the situation.
As for the rest of the day, I have found myself to be more productive earlier in the day, since the pandemic. I used to lollygag a bit until early afternoon. Now I'm doing things as early as 9:30/10 am and seem to continue through a lot of the day. I thought about why this is, and realized that it's likely because I don't want my hubby seeing me lollygag. He doesn't know, when he's not home.
Unlike before the pandemic, I have been making nice lunches, with hubby home. I have also made dinner much earlier. I'm now tired by the late afternoon, perhaps because of the increased morning activity. I've been getting dinner ready by around 6 pm, instead of the usual 7 pm. My Czech hubby has always eaten late dinners. In my family, dinners were early at 5:30 pm. Despite being with my husband for 23+ years, I do still prefer the earlier dinners.
My husband has always started work late (10 am) and finished late (6:30 pm). He still logs on as "available" at 10 am on Skype, so his official work start time hasn't really changed. I'll admit that he has taken some "long breaks". Partly because he has less work to do because of the pandemic. That's why there are layoffs at his workplace.
