If You Had An Extra Hour Every Day...

Finding time to do the things you would like to do instead of doing things you have to do, is sometimes quite a challenge. But if you had an extra hour every day to do whatever you wanted to do, what would you do?
I have a lot more time to do things now that I’m retired, but it seems like I still stay busy all through the day. I am getting things done though, now that I have the extra time.
Right now, I’m trying to use an hour a day, practicing on my new keyboard piano. I used to play the piano all the time, but I haven’t had a piano in my house for about 35 years so I am way out of practice. It has been slow, but I do see some progress.
What would you like to have more time to do?

It's sleep for me. I don't have much time for sleep at all.

@Gamic01 Yes, I am. And after working and i'm already in bed, I still think that i need to have time for myself by watching movies i don't get to watch because of work. And no matter how late i go to bed, i always wake up too early even if i have the time in the world to stay asleep.

A lot of people don't get enough sleep, that's for sure. It was like that for me, when I was raising my five children and working. So, I can certainly relate to that.

Sleep is good. Some days I actually do take a nap.

Yes, I only read now about two chapters of a novel each night after I go to bed. I do try to read factual things in the mornings, but I've really been busy this week.

I would probably successfully fritter away the extra hour.

A lot of people don't get enough sleep and we really do need sleep so that our body and mind can recuperate from the daytime activities.

This got me thinking. I think I'd like to have more time for meeting old friends and just having lengthy conversations with them over tea and pastries.
