I've been doing a similar routine. But walking instead of reading. I wake at 6:30, take a short walk around the block, eat breakfast, then start work by 7:30. Take a break around noon for lunch and another 2-3 mile walk, then call it quits at 3:30 to 4:00, and either go out and do some wood working or another walk. Then shower before bed at 9:00-ish.
