If you didn’t need to work for money, what would you do with your time ?

How would you fill your days

What about you @Pheonix2023? How do you spend your time?

I don't work. I quilt a lot and go to sewing class once a week followed by lunch with my friends. Before Covid I used to meet friends for breakfast between school drop off and the supermarket, I'm trying to get back to that but at the moment it's just lunch once a week.

Mostly I am the person of first resort for my family, drop and fetch, shop, fix things, life admin etc. I hadn't realised how much of my time that had taken up until we had the first lockdown and I suddenly had four times as much free time. I had thought that I had loads of free time before Covid, but actually what I had was 45 mins here and there between tasks for others. I'd settle down to sew and a child would appear at the door to be dropped off somewhere, or my Mum would ring to say "could you just ...". All the requests were short-ish, but by the time you've driven to do or fetch the thing, found that it's not as straightforward as the asker believed it to be, and got back home, it's sometimes an hour or two.
