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!

Writting Jul 21, 2010

Writting and marketing my fiction takes all of my "not-working" work time.

Otherwise, it's family, family, family.

Almost all of them... Jul 21, 2010

... except for watching TV, as I don't have any. And going out/shopping and most preferably doing some physical activity, e.g. riding a bike/excercising/swimming.
