I came up with this daily scedule for an elf in TA Lórien:
8.30 AM: Get up, wash
9.00 :light breakfast
9.30: start daily chores
Girls/Women: weaving, spinning, making lembas ,sowing& embroidery, ladies in waiting to Galadriel
Boys/Men: wood-carving, making arrows etc., making ropes, boats and building new flets
Both: guards, making jewlery, coping/ memorizing the old songs
Children up to 14 go to School
=>Note: the "lesser elves" fullfill these tasks while the higher ones rather supervise or don´t do any work
2.00 PM: Lunch. Usually cold or light
3.00 get started on work again. Children don´t have to work, they have play-time
6.30(varies in season) greeting of the first star in honour of Elbereth. After it comes out, no work is allowed
7.30: evening feast. Involves roasted meat, light bread, fruit etc.
after 9.00 ocasionally singing or gatherings. Sometimes people just stay home with their kids
Ok, what do you think?? Realistic?
