Looking For Something To Do? Louis posted on another thread about making a list of things to do when struggling, or on weekend/evenings, or when bored. So, why don't we make a collaborative effort and everyone can add what they like. When it's done, I will Sticky it at the top of the Forum. |
I will start with the obvious and for me the most important. Come to SR and read and post. Love you all. You are my rock. |
Let's keep the list going: Come to SR and read and post. Love you all. You are my rock. My favorite thing to do is to go for a walk. I love going to the library and browsing through the shelves hoping to find something inspiring. |

Shopping, window shopping, thrift store and antique hunting. |
