Laurie · 1 year ago

Work on knitting and crochet projects for others (Bazaars and Christmas cards), read, visit museums to learn history and appreciate art, cook

Wendi · 1 year ago

Visit art museums and galleries. I gather so much inspiration and soul-soothing from paintings and I need to make more time for these activities on weekends rather than just working.

blw · 1 year ago

Skiing. Singing. Dancing.

Xai Vicente Charles · 1 year ago

If I had more time I would crochet more. My mother taught me when I was 4 years old and for me it is a form of meditation.

lee quee · 1 year ago

Travel, design some of my own ideas and not just my clients, sketch and draw, sort out my ideas, do more fun websites and fun and interesting design projects

Janet · 1 year ago

Read. I have tons of books from the library and I don't manage to read much of them. I also have personal writing I'd love to do but don't get down to it.

eloquencecomm · 1 year ago

Sit. Wait. Try really really hard. Walk in nature - eyes on the treetops. Snuggle my baby girls for a long long time in one sitting.

Ellen Falkenberry · 1 year ago

Play in the water. Float down a river on an inner tube. Sit by the water and watch the sun set and the stars come out. Hunt for arrowheads. Share a bottle of champagne in front of the fireplace with my sweetheart then smash the glasses in the fire. Color. Paint. Get a massage. Have a Really Good Pedicure. Meditate. Spend time with my friends Kumie (she lives in Tokyo, I live in Alabama....) and Julie (her job takes her out of town a lot). Remember who I am. Watch Turner Classic Movies (I don't have cable right now). Buy new clothes. Make a big pile of money. Why not? Exactly! Thanks for the inspiration!

Ellen Falkenberry · 1 year ago

Hey - can you think of a way I can make a big pile of money by watching Turner Classic Movies? Hee hee!

Tabitha · 1 year ago

Paint - growing up, Sundays were for painting and arts and crafts. Unfortunately, I can't call my dad and ask him to buy me paints and brushes and canvases anymore now that I'm 30!

Carrie McCarthy · 1 year ago

Remember who I am. I am going to borrow that, thank you.

Carrie

Ella · 1 year ago

Yoga. Cook. Write. Walk. Touch.

Daniel Gibbons · 1 year ago

Reading is something I really need to do more of. It used to be that I read at least one novel a week, but between a busy work schedule and my daughter (10 months old) it's hard to make the time. My goal for this month is to turn off the TV, resist the temptation to veg and do nothing and consume at least two novels.

Sleeping, talking with my sister, visiting friends, traveling, playing undisturbed with my daughter, being still.

Fill the house with music from morning to afternoon. Sit in the sun in a big chair and read, and enjoy the space I call home.

MelissaM · 1 year ago

Working with my hands. Creating in the craft room and in the kitchen. Playing percussion. Watching live music.

Tina Woodlee · 1 year ago

Dancing and painting are the first to come to mind but there are so many more things that I want to do. I wonder how much time I would need to do it all.

Tina Woodlee · 1 year ago

I like these things too!

RecollectedStephanie · 1 year ago

WOW! Just look at how many of the answers have to do with personally creating something! That's my answer too - I'd do more creative work. There's some sewing calling out to me that I've been wasting too much time on stuff that doesn't matter, for instance. And a yard and garden that have been allowed to run wild for too long.

Gwyneth Jones · 1 year ago

Dancing - that uninhibited thrashing that releases the body... And not caring how ridiculous I look

Scott · 1 year ago

Canoe, go the beach, read fiction, hike, bike...dates with my wife.

Beth C. · 1 year ago

I love to make jewelry and volunteer my time to the Junior League.

Michael · 1 year ago

My Style Statement is "Original Harmony." I engage in creative writing, and haven't had much time to create new original works - currently, my first children's book.

Sandi Domenico · 1 year ago

Taking 10 minutes in the busiest part of my day, finding a somewhat quiet place and just breathing deeply and freely.
Playtime - the sillier and more spontaneous the better like making shadow puppets on the wall before turning out the light at night, leaving little 'love notes' for my family on the bathroom mirror, ditching my calendar for a day and having an unplanned adventure.

helen · 1 year ago

breathing in deeply. smiling. daydreaming. forgetting about my to-do list.

Gina B · 1 year ago

Spend time with people that truly make me smile. Travel.

Carol Zhong · 1 year ago

Read, travel, study Italian, take walks in parks.

MelissaM · 1 year ago

I miss drumming with you too!! Life hasn't been the same since I put rhythm on the back burner. Will you be jamming in the park this Thursday night? I'll create the time if you create the space :)m
ps: great to connect with you here on the C&D Q&A!!!

Danielle LaPorte · 1 year ago

Forgiving...hmmm. That's got me thinking about other things I want to do more of.

carla morales · 1 year ago

travel...photography...playing board games...speaking Italian..dancing..

Swim - but especially skinny dipping! Every year I make that a summer goal. This year I'm going to DO IT!!!

Paint, photograph and write! Pause and listen. Travel. Spend magical moments with good friends.

Krystl · 1 year ago

sew, draw, take pictures and learn more about my camera, study japanese, talk on the phone to my little sister, write letters, meditate - i could go on and on, but basically just these four things:

create, connect, learn, transcend

Krystl · 1 year ago

oh, and play scrabble. no one will play with me!

Andrew · 1 year ago

Skiing, golf, playing in the waves on a nice beach somewhere. Those things that take both time AND money - somehow the two never seem to appear in my life in combination. :)

Actually, there's no excuse for me not getting out into nature more often.

JoeM · 1 year ago

Long walk in the woods on the mountain where I live and spending more time working on my sculptures at the local studio.

Cassandra · 1 year ago

Saying "No", being on my own, swinging high at the park at dusk, laughing with friends, putting my toes in. Sighing...

Larissa · 1 year ago

Socializing. Spending time in nature. Wandering aimlessly around Manhattan and finding myself having mini-adventures. Reading. Bubble baths. Manicures. Dancing. Creating art. Having long, meaningful talks with friends- both old and new.

SRead · 1 year ago

Try...I bet he would be delighted! and inspired.

Lynn · 1 year ago

Read and horseback ride. I would also like to spend more time with my children who are scattered across the US.

SRead · 1 year ago

When I was eight I loved to run in the rain....barefoot and through every puddle. It was so much fun and excilerating!.....and when I was 30 I had the urge to do it again and it only took my daughters a few seconds to join in....a few years later when they were teenagers we started a football game in the mud during a torrential rain storm...all the kids in the neighbourhood joined in and before long we were front page news!
Today I made time to have tea with an old friend...it was wonderful and I want to do more of that....with all my friends....and do art with my artsy friends....
All day I've been thinking how much I long to travel more, and that in the last week I have been making wild suggestions of how nice it would be to be invited to do some international speaking engagements..... the invitation arrived tonight! What was that about asking? I'm so happy I could run through puddles!

Audrey · 1 year ago

I don't get enough traveling, which I absolutely love. Painting, crafts, sitting by the ocean at night, cooking in general, dress up (but now in grown-up sense)

Carrie McCarthy · 1 year ago

G, I bet you're a great dancer!!

Carrie

CeCe · 1 year ago

My art work for sure. After going to school, freelance writing and recipe development, and helping out my 85 year-old mom and other family commitments, there's been no time for art for such a long time. I miss it sorely.

Janet · 1 year ago

Turning off the TV and the computer is what I need to do too!

Shantel · 1 year ago

Being still, reading the bible, traveling, write, being romantic, giving, helping others, grow my own vegetables, making a healthy meal every night, and connecting with myself.

Virginie · 1 year ago

Spend time with long-distance friends to chat, catch up, connect.

LaKecia · 1 year ago

Writing. I love to write and I don't find the time. Reading. I have a summer reading list and this yer I plan to get through it. This is my summer of committment. I am going to stop talking about what I want to do more of and just do it.
