| Getting out ... | Jul 21, 2010 |
Going for a walk, going shopping, something that involves getting out in the fresh air and moving around.
Once I've done that, I'll force myself to get on with the admin and/or housework, but generally I'll have more work in before I have to resort to that!

I spend my free time at a language-learning website, learning foreign languages and reviewing exercises in Polish submitted by foreigners who learn my native language.

Writting and marketing my fiction takes all of my "not-working" work time.
Otherwise, it's family, family, family.

The poll includes the option "None of the above". It should also include an option "All of the above".

I volunteer with African refugees, teaching Literacy and helping thel with their asylum applications.
I think helping others in our communities is the best way to spend free time.
