Unwinding?

[andriek]

So what does everyone do to unwind. Like lets say it was a stressful day, or a busy day. And you just go home and know you would have the rest of the day off. What is the first thing you go for?

For me, I turn the TV on and lay down. I usually watch some crime drama or some cartoon. I will then put the headphones on from my MP3 player, or turn my computer on and use that media player and just listen to music watching the images. I mean if I am interested in the show then I will listen to it, I just lay out and listen to music while watching the images on the screen past by.

I love to read. So if I'm gonna unwind I'm going to read a book and probably listen to music at the same time.

`If I had an inch to spare of time? Hmmm.. I unwind with music. I'd probably pull on my headphones and just lay on my bed. Like now, although usually when I'm stressed or mad I tend to have to keep my mind and hands busy. Cleaning, taking pictures, scrapbooking, cooking, etc.

`My unwinding is right here on the compuer. No sounds, no noise, just me the the screen and key board. I do it every night after work because my job can be noisy and music and television is the last thing I want!
I scoot through and check my e-mail and maybe answer a few. I come to this site and see whats new on the forum, or do a quick search of new members. No one in my area has been new for MONTHS so I always look here first.
After the peacefull silence, then I go to book or tv or what ever.

`Lol... I work long hours with dogs everyday... They tend to be loud and noisy but for some reason music makes me feel like I can have some peaceful me time. That and I hate the sound of silence, it tends to magnify every other noise around the house. : )

`So true, my apt gets so noise from everyone else's music. So playing my own helps that. I also like music when I am walking around. Without it the rest of the world seems boring

`Like good background music to my life.

`I listen to music almost 24/7. I read SOMETIMES, watch t.v and play basketball, but almost all times during those events, earbuds are plugged in. Makes you wonder about other things!
