Tonight I find myself with some unclaimed time which is super rare. Parker isn't home right now, the house is pretty much clean, I have finished work for the day and I don't have any other commitments or things to check off my to do list. So I'm just wondering what YOU would do if you had a few hours of time to yourself. What is your favorite way to spend your extra time?
Here are a few of my favorite things to do when I have down time to myself:
+ Have a bath. There is something so soothing about relaxing in a hot bubble bath. Unfortunately, our tub right now is rather small and I don't like it when I can't fit my whole self under the water at once lol. Someday I'll have a giant tub that I can completely relax in!
+ Read. I love reading and I feel like there is never enough time to just read for hours on end. And sadly, reading is never a priority.
+ Scrapbook. I love getting my creativity on and scrapbooking but this is often one of the last things I do because it does take quite a bit of prep and I don't usually have hours upon hours to get all my photos printed and pages done.
+ Paint my nails. I've become pretty fond of painting my nails over the years. I have an LED light and I love that I can give myself a dang good gel manicure right from the comfort of my own home.
+ Blog. I actually really enjoy writing. I started to like writing my senior year of high school and I thoroughly loved the English classes I took at BYU which surprised me because, until then, I don't recall liking it much.
+ Watch TV or a movie. I haven't been much into TV these days. I have been working on my Personal Progress with the YW and we have a month long integrity experience that we are all doing. So many shows on Netflix right now are inappropriate so I'm trying really hard to be better at 'practicing what I preach'. If you have any shows that you like that aren't nasty, let me know! I could use a new one!
+ Sleep. If it wasn't so late, I would have a nap because I love sleeping. But I'm not tired enough to go to bed yet.....
+ Pin. I freaking love Pinterest. We should be Pinterest friends. You can find me on Pinterest HERE.
So tell me, if you were me and had a few hours of time to kill, what would you do with it? Go!

Some flowers for your Friday. Have a great weekend, everyone!xoxo, Chelan
Love this list! Reading is something I also wish I made more of a priority because I love it.
ReplyDeleteDuring my lunch breaks this week I've been going on walks rather than sitting and playing on my phone. It's been so nice to get out!
That's such a good idea! I've been lacking in the exercise department lately (whoops!) so I'll add this to my list! I do love a good walk 💙. Thanks, Rachel!
