What does your average week actually look like?

Im in computational biology, a few months into a 2nd postdoc in a really competitive program, and my PI is a massive name. I feel like im never getting enough done / not working enough / taking too long to get stuff done. Would you mind sharing what your average week looks with regards to time spent in meetings, reading, research, procrastination? Thank you!
