Let's see - I knit and watch TV (I need to watch TV if I'm knitting), watch DVDs, read, do puzzles, cook or play around with my laptop. I think that's about it.

Settle in, do any necessary "housework", check out the emails, get my head around any writing I have in progress, then 3 solataires until my brain is numb. The TV talks to itself all the time, but I can't just sit and stare at it.

Do any inside work then watch anything I might have recorded from the TV, oops, your not allowed to record are you, oh well I don't then. Some times I might even have no noise and just sit there with my eyes closed but not asleep, I can do that for some time. After being "On the buses" most of the day driving people around the bend it's nice to just sit quietly.

Some days I do nothing and lots of it. One thing I guarantee is I do it extemely well. I was always taught that if I'm going to do something, I must do it well. Tonight I went to Sing Australia at Gawler and sang for 3 hours with a break for a cuppa.

I watch documentaries and tv series dvds - the best way to spend a day when the weather is unpleasant. Good luck :)

I was always told the same thing Chrissy, in fact, I reckon I'm an expert at doing nothing. I just wish I had more time to do it.

Never freecamp in or near a town, they who are in the know advise against it. If theres hoons around they will be nearby, but they can't be bothered driving out of town too far to make mischief.
I looove doing nothing. In fact I'm still sitting here in my PJs having a cuppa and its nearly 10am Other than that I do a lot of puzzles which can be done while sitting doing nothing but still keeping the old grey matter active. Watch DVDs or TV, crochet, read, play on the laptop. Chat to others sitting doing nothing.
I'm getting solar panels to help run my TV and laptop.

I'm in a van park. If I'm camping I find things to look out and places to enjoy. Even if it's raining I settle in a place sheltered and with a view. I live in both environments and make the most of both. Anything but real estate and furniture and I'm happy.

YES real estate/furniture too many people

I like to walk and explore when I'm camping out and about. You get to meet so many people that way too. I find people fascinating, Everybody has a story to tell. I also write (I'm putting down as much as I can of my life) just in case the children are interested in years to come. Since losing my parents there have been many times I wish I could ask mum or dad something about a relative, a situation or a time in their lives. If they aren't interested that's fine, nothing's lost. It will help me when the Alzheimer's sets in!!!! Just lately I bought series 1 & 2 of Downton Abbey and watched those on the 12v tv/DVD . It was great, ally enjoyed it. Tess

There is nothing like a Doona Day when it is wet, windy and miserable. As others have said, doing nothing is a great option - and wet weather is the best excuse for doing that. Exercise and activity are vastly over-rated.

I agree Monica and when it's wet we don't feel guilty about doing nothing..........

Eat to much. Plug my ears so I don't think it's thundering when its raining heavy on the roof. Read my kindle, some great stories stored like Jane Eyre by Charlotte Bronte, it was great. Think to much about when is the rain going to stop so I can hit the frog and tod.
OK here i go again.
