This week May 25, 2017

It varies a lot. I considered this week, so 50-75%. But in two days, this could change to 100%, or to 20%, who knows?

75-100% May 25, 2017

I try to fill my days with work from 9 am to around 5 or 6 pm - that is 100% for me.
Most of the time, I use around 80-90% of that time.
