I go to MySears and POST!

And, there's the restoration of my tools...

And, and the Sharpening of the many tools.

When we have 4 hours "to kill", we drive up to a little cabin in the woods and I proceed to hack and kill about 1-1/2 acres of black-berry overgrown property.

Last year, one of the California wild fires almost did the "clearing" for me.

But, we lucked out and the place was spared.

I'm working at getting a little collection of Blacksmith tools together for me to make some old time Lawn & Garden clearing tools.

I also wind-up spare spools of blue and green weed wacker line.

And, I unwind large spools of the red high-wheel trimmer line to cut individual segments of line for "clearing" efforts.

I like to do a number of things to unwind.  Like take a bath, snuggle in bed with my cat and watch a little TV or read.  I also like to hike at my local nature center and geocache.

I enjoy a good book and a warm sofa with a nice hot cup of cocoa

I like to go to MySears also.  Sometimes, I'll go outside and pick up leaves with my new tractor.

Love your answer, Grandpa61!

I have to say, sitting on the couch, doing the crossword from the paper, with the TV on in the background makes me happy after a long day.  I really appreciate that time, when I have it!

Forgot to mention..We bought a Wii for the Grandchildren when they visit/stay with us.  I exercise every morning using the Sports Fitness game.

I take my hounds out hunting and drink some beers.

I either sit with hubby and dog on the couch and watch my dvr'd shows or plop myself down in front of the computer and play some games or work on editing photos I took.
