What do you do for a living?

Despite being a graduate in travel and tours, I like to refer to myself as a farmer and a writer. My schedule starts as early as 3:00 am. I wake up, pray and meditate for 10-15mins, then take a glass of cold water. I can then bite a leftover of my previous evening’s dinner then pick my hoe. By 3:45 am I am already in the farm, tilling… It takes me up to 3hrs then I am done with digging. By then my chicken are eager to be out of the house. I open the door to let them out then feed them well. When they are done, they leave me alone to take care of my tree and vegetable nurseries. I plant seeds, water seedlings and weed where necessary. Once in a while I sell to walk-in customers, thereby getting some money for the breakfast milk and snack. I love bread, eggs, noodles and bananas. After being done with farm work, I make some tea or coffee, take a quick shower, then enjoy my light breakfast before leaving for the cyber café where I spend the whole day writing and interacting… till it’s time to get home to my birds and farm. I enjoy this kind of life. What do you do for a living?! (By the way I have a published novel which pays off well in terms of royalties once a year. I am still writing on and have many manuscripts in line..)

Always good to have other sources of income. I have several other sources as well. It's like icing on the cake. Right now I am retired. Before that I did sales for 10 years, and before that pest control for 4 1/2 years, and prior to that had an extensive career in manufacturing.
