I fiddle around on the net, and I read. I HAVE to wind down with a good book at bedtime or I cannot sleep! I used to read a lot of non-fiction, but now only good old escapism will do!!! :)

What is it about reading that helps you sleep? If I pick up a good book right before bed I have a major problem with putting the book down. This has happened numerous times. It got so bat one night that I got NO sleep before having to work a ten hour day!

lol! I think with me the escapism relaxes me. I think I find it quite tiring being the sole carer (during the day) for my one year old, having to be constantly 'all there!', and by the time I get to bed at night I just need some escapism.

While I am not the major caretaker of my son, my wife is, I can sympathize. Just after our son was born it was me that quit their job, she made more money, to take care of our son. Anyone who hasn't had to do this I don't think would understand.

I get online and play around on Neopets a lot. I also write and play with my children (unless they are the cause of the stress).

I am still working that one out! As far as grey hairs go, I dye mine to cover it up =) I have had grey hairs ever since I was about 20 years old.

When I was working, I would come home and play games on Neopets as a way to unwind. But I also have been known to go out and take a brisk walk to blow off some steam.
But I also..and most commonly...stick my nose in a book and read. I love reading and it helps me escape my world. :)
