We live in an instant gratification time and place. With BlackBerries and laptops, it's hard to disconnect from work, your friends and your family to just relax and do your own thing. Having alone time is incredibly important but it seems like those days are harder and harder to come by. So while you're busy doing, doing, doing and going, going, going, do tell, what do you wish you were doing instead? Lounging on the couch, soaking in the tub, or even cleaning your messy apartment?

Lounging on the couch watching tv is great, but it still leaves a million things on my mind. My favourite thing to do is play hockey, because I get so focussed on the game, I forget every little thing that's been bothering me, and I get a good workout at the same time.
1I like to sit down with a cup of tea and fashion magazines.
2When i actally do get a few extra minutes I work on my scrapebooks or my Playboy "Ashley Edition" for my boyfriend. I lvoe sitting down and making things!
3Read a great book - one that just sucks me in from page one. I can't worry about the little stuff or what else I should be doing once I'm lost in the pages.
4My husband and I make sure we give each other down time frequently to avoid burn-out. So it's not really a wish, I just get to do it. Massage appointments, regular pedicures, an afternoon by myself shopping.
I read all the time, so that's not a downtime thing for me.
5I'm a big TX Hold 'Em fan, so there's nothing like sitting around a table with my guy friends and playing cards.
6TO be honest, I wish i was going going going. I mean, i go to work and i run errands, but i have no social life so to speak, and i know iam whining and getting on a soap box here, but everyone at work has their own little gorup thing, they are mostly out of towners (i am local) so they hang out, do stuff, don't invite me, etc. I go home and do all the stuff you all wish yo ucould. i read, watch tv, clean my already clean apartment....etc. blah.
7SCRAPBOOKING!!!!!!!!!!!!
8lizzie, I hear you re: Texas Hold 'Em. I love to get together for hours of poker.
But beyond that, I really need some downtime right now. I find that I love to put on loud, upbeat music and... organize. Yep, sad, but true.
9sleep, lounge with the tv on, cuddle with my boyfriend under the covers at 3 in the afternoon
10I like cleaning my room or organizing my undies, shirts, cosmetics, things like that in my room. Sometimes I'm so busy with all of the classes and reasearching, that I really wish I had time to really enjoy the comforts of my room.
11I work in Real Estate so I love to ride through new subdivisions and look at houses and their interiors. And of course, shopping!!
12I love to take a hot bath, close my eyes and just be....
13When I am home alone I love to play my favorite songs and dance around.. Silly, I know!
14sittin on my bed, with my 3 cats drinking coffee and reading while watching "shalom in the home"
15I love to grocery shop. I make a list and gather the necessary coupons days before I acutally go, so that I am not stressed.
Other than that, I read fashion magazines outside on a lounge chair while drinking sparkling water or something with a little alcohol in it.
I am so PG! It's sad.
16Fashionhore-I love to grocery shop too! My friends all think I am nuts, but it relaxes me. I also get in the longest line and read the trash mags!
17healthy: get a cup of good quality green tea, enjoy every sip while watching my fave TV show reruns on DVD
unhealthy: substitute the green tea with 1 pint of icecream hahaha
18I sometimes veg in front of the TV which makes me feel good but frys my brain cells.
Then there are days when I just want to go a rampart cleaning..
19if i could take an relaxing hour or 2 i would garden or surf depending on the weather and swell.
20Watch TV, use my computer, doing crafts like making jewelry.
My new favorite thing to do is to play Wii. I'm addicted to the tennis.
21SLEEP. read and drink a cappuccino or latte or bubble tea.
22I love to lay in my bed and read magazines, decorate my room, and watch tv or a movie.
23scrapbook, make candles, sew. i'm a total crafty
24sleeping.
25I spend my "me time" running along the lake. There's nothing like a 7-mile run to clear your mind.
