Rank the rooms in your home by how much time you actually spend in each one.

B Natural answer

If I rank the rooms by actual time, I'd put my home office first because I work from there most days and also handle emails there in the evening. Next is the kitchen after that, since I make breakfast, lunch, and coffee throughout the day. The living room again in the evening probably comes third, because that's where I sit after dinner and talk with family or scroll on my phone. The bedroom is important, but I only use it for sleeping and getting ready. The bathroom gets used a lot, but only in short visits.
