I swear I'm not stealing QoTD from you Kristen.

(If you are interested in Question of the Day, the link to her blog is on my sidebar- my questions will only be when I want to take a break from working, but don't have anything blog worthy.)

So, I'm sure you can tell from the complaining that I am sucked up in freelance work and don't have a ton of time to for me. When the webpage really starts acting up (which is a lot) I take a few minutes to surf the net or to knit a few rows, but what I'd really like to do is sit on the couch, put in a DVD (sorry Linda- subtitles won't work, since I watch TV and knit) and knit, more than a single row. If I had a larger bathtub, I think I might even want to take a nice long scented bubble bath, while reading a book. Stupid small tub...

However, my shoulder injury from earlier this year has peaked again (I think it's from using a computer mouse...) and the pain is spreading up through my shoulder blades/back and down to my elbow, and my right hand is kind of feeling a bit numb. So I'm not knitting more than a row at a time- although I don't think knitting affects this. (When I wasn't doing computer work and knitting 8 hours a day before I picked up the freelance work, it didn't bother me at all.)


So today's question:

If you have 4 hours to yourself at home, what do you do?

I sit on the couch and read, or work on one of my crafty projects, or take a nap. Mmmmm, nap...

When I have 4 hours to myself, I crank up the audio! I listen to the music I love, the Japanese TV shows I enjoy and the audio books I listen to from the library--but without the tether of the headphones I usually have to wear. I make all the noise that I want to! :) Then I dance around the house and sing at the top of my lungs without getting stares and hostility from teenagers and grouchy old guys! 8D

Clean. Seriously -- it's crazy hard to clean with kids underfoot...
