As a workaholic I don't have a lot of down time. Well maybe I should rephrase that, I don't normally take much time off.When I do take time off I love to read, relax, and have a glass of wine.
As Spring is slowly trying to makes it's way to the Midwest, I find that I want to have a little more time off relaxing and enjoy the warmth of Spring.
Hanging outside and reading is one of my favorite ways to chill out. This time of year I find myself taking more time off just to sit outside to clear my mind and regroup.
When you need to chill out, what do you like to do?
I don't take a lot of time off either. I like to create things just for me in my time off!
ReplyDeleteWe love our backyard. Just sitting out with a beverage, tinkering in our garden boxes. We have tons of birds that visit our yard and it's so fun to just sit and watch them.
ReplyDeleteI love to watch indie or foreign films on demand. The funny thing is I find myself stopping the movies half way through to go do more work. Then I finish the movie later. Sitting still is not my forte.
ReplyDeleteI ahve 2 little ones and they force me to relax by reading books under a blanket, baking cookies and theneating them on the comfy rug on ther floor with them.
ReplyDeleteIf on my own I like filling the birdfeeders and listening to their tunes in bed early morning when come to visit.
I like to chill out at the beach, or doing crafts, or colouring while watching TV.
ReplyDeleteI'm a workaholic as well. The good news is that I enjoy what I do. Since we moved to Milwaukee, one of my favorite things to do is explore new areas of the city. I love to take pictures and try new restaurants.
ReplyDeleteTaking time off is SO hard! I do enjoy a hot bath and a glass of wine though :)
ReplyDeleteAnd during the summer, the best place to relax is on the river in an air boat...can't wait!
Oh so many ways to unwind. A nice long walk along the seashore, a great book (on a cold day it's hard to beat a fire in the fireplace, a cup of hot chocolate and a really good read), on a hot summer's day a tall glass of fresh lemonade (squeezed from real lemons)day-dreaming and rocking in a rocking chair on the front porch.
