I miss my kids sometimes and that can get me down when I've been away working, but then I wake up and recognize how incredibly lucky I am. Spending time being down is less time out there achieving and enjoying.

My downtime tends to resemble my uptime. Weekends are workdays, but toned down. Over the whole weekend, I may have five meetings, as opposed to six on a weekday. I used to play piano for 30 minutes at night, but I had to pull that out of my schedule. I don't have time for nonwork stuff.

I like to have fun all the time, even if I'm working.

I'm a workaholic, and so I've always got to be doing stuff.

I'm a bit of a workaholic. When I feel like I'm not doing something, it drives me insane.

I don't have time for hobbies. At the end of the day, I treat my job as a hobby. It's something I love doing.

Part of the way the work world works is not so much creating a separation between your work and your free time, but creating the illusion of a separation between your work and your free time. Every day is the weekend for me, which means I'm always busy.

I get quite lazy about cooking because when I come back from work it is the last thing I want to do, really is spend loads of time cooking.

I'm busy and that's the way I like it - when I have too much downtime I get into trouble.

There isn't a spare minute in the day. I have spent my life doing everything. I work. I go home. I do the shopping. I cook. Then there's the laundry and the dog. Most of my life, I have been a working mother. And even when I wasn't, I still did it all.
