CasinoMing 1967 Report post Posted August 10, 2010 Being a single parent, "me time" doesn't happen often. But I do enjoy getting out on my motorcycle. Sometimes it's a battle - dodging absent-minded drivers.. but most of the time, it is a relaxing ride. There are plenty of semi-smooth roads in the Ottawa Valley to explore... especially in the Calabogie area.. beautiful scenery that's mostly absent of commercial vehicles.

roamingguy 300292 Report post Posted August 10, 2010 1 - Hook up the boat and go get lost on the Lake and fish a bit. You don't have to catch anything. Gotta agree with you bassnut, taking the boat out and go fishing. Nothing like first thing in the morning (6am or earlier) and your on the water. Even with no fish, the getting back to nature is relaxing and destressing RG Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Annessa 22743 Report post Posted August 10, 2010 i love going up on a beautiful weekend to the cottage and bringing something with me crafty...like a canvas that I haven't touched in a while ..or a purse that needs some sewing....doing crafty things takes my mind off of things. lately I've been putting together IKEA stuff while watching a movie....or taking old wood furniture to the back-yard to spray a new coat of paint on it Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Annessa 22743 Report post Posted August 11, 2010 I pet my big fluffy orange cat and played with him for a good half hour tonight. it made me happy and definitely took my brain off things. Theres something about being in the presence of another person or animal thats relaxed and feeling good....the feeling it contagious :-) (and no dirty jokes as to me petting my pussy and what that means lol) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Andee 220524 Report post Posted August 11, 2010 I love cleaning kitchens... washing dishes and the like...I also love cooking to de-stress, hence the cleaning beforehand I think... It all leads to the comfort foods I think.. I eat to be happy, so yeah food and what leads up to food is my de-stressor You can clean my kitchen anytime, honey...oh and cook for me! I usually veg in front of the TV and make it a nite alone with my comfort foods. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
