Day to yourself - WWYD?

AIBU to ask what would you choose to do if you had a day to yourself? No housework, no DIY, no catch-ups with friends or family.
I have a rare Monday to myself in October due to taking time back from work. DC at nursery till 5.00pm, DH at work. I am loath to spend it doing housework or some other mental-load task.
Looking for inspiration. I feel I really need time alone to recharge and relax. What would you do if you had a weekday to yourself?

Honestly..? I'd just sleep for a few hours then go out for a coffee all by myself... but then again I'm pretty sleep deprived at the moment

I had this the other week. I got some nice snacks in and did everything slowly - then spent most of the day watching a tv show on Netflix! The day soon flew by haha

I have this far too much on my days off from work. I go for a walk and for a coffee.. potter round town then another coffee/ tea. Long walk home.

Go back to bed with a book, and snooze/read all day

Go to museum or gallery, have a coffee and pastry/nice picnic in the park on the way back, go for a swim, stop at a bookshop on the way, go home and snooze.

Sweet fuck all and I would enjoy every second of it.

I would have a long breakfast with fresh orange, crumpet and tea then build some of my Lego while watching Netflix

Pilates and a swim, a nice cafe lunch, curl up on the sofa with your book

I'd like to say that I'd have a half (morning) spa day, then go for a coffee, mill about nice shops, maybe visit an attraction. In reality, I'd lie in, snack all day and binge The Tudors.

Read, watch tv, then read some more

I'd cook a nice breakfast or lunch depending on which you'd prefer, enjoy it while binging a show, and spend the afternoon reading - possibly have a bath mid afternoon!
