What do you do to relax?

I binge watch YouTubes let’s play and Fluther .

Cuddle with my husband and watch TV. Or, just watch TV on my own is relaxing too.

Unfortunately, I think I sometimes eat to relax. That I could do without.

Sit outside on my back patio when the weather is good.

Surf the web or watch tv. Or read if I find a book or article I’m interested in.

More often than not, I play video games to get things off my mind. But really the best cure for it is going outside into nature.

Hot baths, good books, long walks and watching a series on streaming TV.

Play with my cats.

Physical exercise is good too.

Search the web for clues to my ancestry.

Read, play word games, take a walk outside.

Read, play with my animals, yard work, Playstation, go for a walk, hang out by the lake, garage sales, etc..

I fiddle with my fish pond. There is always something that needs to be done: change a filter bag, skim leaves off the surface, scoop out some muck from the bottom, connect another water line for a future fountain…
It is mindless and so quiet.

Currently, some matches in World of Warships.

I also come here when I am supposed to be doing something else – like taxes.

I like to read mystery novels. I’m reading one right now that is the continuation of the Sherlock Holmes stories, written by Caleb Carr, called The Italian Secretary. I’m really enjoying it, because there is a part that describes Mycroft Holmes, Sherlock’s brother, as hanging out with Queen Victoria. I just finished watching the most recent episode of Victoria on PBS.

I also enjoy organizing my photographs. I just went through about 700 pictures from my recent trip to Yosemite.

And walking on the beach.
