Oh yeah, the North did away with slavery around 1760-1800, so we get up, have breakfast, see the kids off to school, kiss the mrs.s, go to work, take a lunch break, go back to work, go home.
Eat diner with the family, read the paper, maybe look for a new job or a better home, go over your savings with the mrs.s, clean the guns, prepare for hunting trip on the weekend. Maybe have the extended family over for Sunday diner.
Most Northerners still lived on farms or in rural clusters, until 1890, Harlem was still a Dutch farming community, the tallest building in New York City was six stories high, and contrary to some opinions, the horse was every bit as much a part of Northern life as it was in the South.
