    It would depend very much on your class. For most working class people, a typical day would be a long hard day's work. Enormous numbers of women were in domestic service for instance, which usually involved getting up very early in the morning to lay fires, fetch hot water for washing, scrubbing, dusting, polishing etc. A cook would have a number of large meals to prepare in the course of the day, upper and even middle class households would expect substantial meals of several courses.

    Other people might be working long days in factories or in shops or offices. However, even people who did work very long hours found the time to enjoy themselves in the evenings, going out to dances or to the music hall or the pub (or bar if you're in the US).

    Middle class men would work at various occupations, and so would single middle class women. Married middle class women would not normally go out to work, bu twould be kept busy running the household, though they would probably have servants to do some or most of the housework. women's clubs were enormously popular wiht middle class women, who got together to discuss history or literature or current affairs. Men might go to their own clubs after work, or to a bar for a drink. They would come home for dinner, or they might be dining with friends.

    If you were upper class you might be leading a very leisurely life. Upper class women did not have to do any housework, they had servants to do it, and if they were married they were not expected to go out to work. They might spend the day visiting friends, or receiving friends, going walking or riding (or bicycling, cycling was enormously popular in the early 1900s) and perhaps going to a theatre or dinner or ball at night. Upper class men might go hunting or shooting or fishing if they were in the country, or spend a good deal of time at their clubs if they were in town.
