Switching off over Xmas. What to actually do?

[itsboiledeggsagain]

I am thinking about less social media, less pointless time on my phone and more relaxing in a bit more of a meaningful way.

So far I have

• pile of books to read
• put phone down while watching telly
• do a jigsaw
• find some interesting new websites to look at not just mumsnet and BBC news.

Anyone help with my last point or have any other good ideas for extreme relaxation?

I'm going to the wool shop tomorrow :) and got loads of books too

Ill be trying to finish a Christmas cross stitch... That i bought last Christmas 😕

For me it’s about reconnecting with my DH and DS 9. We’re all so busy during the week and weekends are often spent with others we do miss out on genuine quality time. I want to eat all our meals together, lots of fresh air, play board games, enjoy films...together, snuggle on the sofa. Yes to less phone time.

Hoping the weather is dry to get a couple of nice long walks in over Christmas.

Yes board games are on the list as we as some kind of exercise /fresh air.

Dh is off for 2 weeks as well which means we can go swimming, maybe get bikes out (3 small dc)

Card games, books, yoga, walks, coffee with friends. Trying some new recipes, having friends & family over.
Cinema with DH & teen dc.
I like to crochet, paper crafts & chill.
