So...What Do You Do At Home? :)
I know there are 14 billion (give or take) activities and clubs available here in TV, but not everybody is out running around constantly from sunup to sundown. Sure, I play golf, billiards, might bowl again after I get my knee fixed, drop in on discussion groups now and then, and do some other miscellaneous activities. All the typical Villages stuff. But like I said, I'm not as crazy-active as some out there. (You know who you are! )
Maybe us folks who spend a considerable amount of time at home can post some thoughts so we can see what others do. It's possible some folks could discover something new and interesting. Let's share and see what happens. Here are a few of my home activities... * I ride my bicycle almost every day. I also do some simple home exercise like pushups, crunches and such; * I dabble in rhythm guitar. Rhythm keeps it fairly simple so a non rock start like me can enjoy it and get some satisfaction; * We have a 7 month old puppy now, so it's very easy to spend time having fun with him; * I read quite a bit; * I meditate, not in a religious sense, but simple mindfulness meditation focusing on the breath; * I video game, probably a little more than many of you. I was an early adopter and it's stuck with me to a degree. Of course some word, card, and similar games on my phone, but also some PC and console games; * Watch video. Not a lot actually. Movies infrequently. TV shows a bit more; * I keep a journal. Frequency of entries varies a lot, but it's very fun to look back on now and then. Well? How about you folks? Let's share so we can discover our next great at home activity! |

I drink..lay on my recliner, take a nap. Wake up, turn on tv or play on my ipad.
I think many here believe they have to join clubs and be active every minute of the day. Its okay to relax in retirement.

I seem to spend a lot of time going to medical appointments. Dentist, dermatologist, cardiologist, orthopedist, audiologist ophthalmologists. I suspect they're sharing info about me with those people who keep sending cremation promos.

We raise dust bunnies. Fun, and not a lot of work.
Contemplate the back of my eyelids while focusing on my snork, snork, snoring. |

I spend my time doing only those things that improve the quality of my life. Nothing is too small to improve.

I'm a pickleball devotee. Every day for 2 hours in the morning and some afternoons too (table tennis when raining). Other than that, jigsaw puzzles, TV watching, reading, cat grooming, watering outdoor plants, drinks with friends, cleaning once in a while, home updates once in a while, going to the square once in a while, but mostly, LOVING Florida winter weather and not HAVING to do anything!

Day trade options, collect MILSURPS, enjoy happy hour at some local restaurants, binge watch an occasional program on Netflix or Prime.

I cook something delicious once a week. Triple the recipe to freeze. I test recipes for America’s Test Kitchen. We go to Orlando or Tampa almost every week to shop. I also sell niche perfumes on Mecari. It’s a fun hobby and I’m happy when my customers love their new or slightly used perfume!

On a serious side. We have been here for 10 years and are quite active like yourself. Additionally . we have a large group of friends and are busy almost every day of the week. We belong to social groups, golf leagues, bocci groups, neighborhood groups, and both of us do volunteer work regularly. We make day trips around the state. Dining out with friend is a 3-4 times weekly activity, as is every type of board and card game. I could go on but you should get the picture.
