…the one with all the stuff I like to do with ‘me’ time.
1. Read a book. I don’t do well with interruptions when I’m reading, it makes me cranky, so I save it for when I know I’m not going to be interrupted.
2. Knit
3. Spin
4. Go to the diner with a book. ;o)
5. Sew something for myself.
6. Watch a movie – usually an Austen movie since I don’t like to subject RR to hours of Regency romance or wet Mr. Darcy’s – while I spin or knit.
7. Watch Grey’s Anatomy (R would probably watch with me but it’s turned into a ‘me’ show – though I almost dropped it during the creepy sex-with-a-ghost-jump-the-shark phase. Still not sure if I care who lives or dies).
8. Add stuff to my Ravelry queue.
9. Look at all the stuff my friends have added to their Ravelry queues. ;o)
10. Knit something on the CSM.
So tell me, what do you all like to do with your ‘me’ time?

StoryTime Sampler 3 February 2016
I don’t know if this project will stay here, but I wanted a spot to put all of my photos for the current sampler I’m cross stitching.

I’ve put this on ‘hibernating’ status since I’m trying to decide what to do - I kind of want to pick my favorite 6 and make a mini sampler since there are some books in the mix that aren’t my favorites

opal’s last blog post..ECF: The one with the bracelets.
I sure wish I could add your #10 to my list. Ahem.
I like to watch BBC America. My most guilty pleasure is The Graham Norton Show. It never fails to make me laugh out load.
Karen’s last blog post..Alive, really.
I’ll be posting a list… you evil woman you. :D Thanks for the blog fodder.
Stacey’s last blog post..I just have to make it through the week
I think reading would have to be at least five of the items on my list. ;)
I’m kind of “eh” about Grey’s Anatomy at this point, too, but will say that the second half of this season was MILES better than the first half!
Reading is #1 on my list too, though … which I’m guessing doesn’t come as a surprise?
–Deb’s last blog post..Chuck Me Monday-2
Well, as my hubby has been gone for 5 weeks I’ve had a lot of time to contemplate “me” time. I’ve spent a good bit of it reading, a lot of it working on my quilt that had languished for lack of a lace to put my sewing machine, I’ve spun a fair bit, I’ve knitted a little and I have watched “What Not to Wear” and varios Gordon Ramsey shows. It’s been great fun, but I would prefer small doses of me time instead of this big swath. :)
Mmmmm Mr Darcy goes swimming (in the Colin Firth version of course). Greys was just eh this season. All the Izzie drama was a little much but the season finale was better. Let’s hope they move on next season.
I’m with you on not getting interrupted while reading. That’s why I save it for lunch hour at work or commuting. No family around to interrupt.
Hillary’s last blog post..Ten on Tuesday -10 Favorite Things to do During "Me" Time
I posted my list over on my blog. It was harder than I expected.
CatieP’s last blog post..Ten on Tuesday
Me time? Huh? That would be the hour or so between the time the kids go to bed and I do. Umm, not much time there. Hmmm.
Risa’s last blog post..Sliding into second
Very nice list. I hope the book pays for dinner. ;^)
Cookie’s last blog post..Holy Crap! I really am DOOMED!
I like your list and want to do all of them, as well. Haven’t had much me time for about 2 months but when I DO, I’m going to make my own list. I’m pretty sure there will be travel involved, as well as knitting and books. :-)
Laurie (Moo!)’s last blog post..Still Quiet
Do you really want to know what I do with my almost never ending me time? Knit, spin, read ravelry, hope someone has commented on my blog, read books (fiction, non-fiction, online stuff sometimes even learning things), play with material (can’t really call it sewing or quilting given the results!), garden (as much as I can on the patio and inside window ledges), avoid the housework (hard to do in such a small place but I manage ;-), tunisian crochet an enormous rug, ride my bike, take pictures of varying quality…. I like the idea of watching an Austen or two – a wet Mr Darcy!!! Oooh la la!
(I sympathise with the wrong crossed cable – the number of times I’ve had to refix something I screwed up but thank heavens this is knitting and not something that can’t be unscrewed up!)
lynne s of oz’s last blog post..Wotisit Monday 6
I love to read and knit mostly. I am addicted to mystery novels, so I’ve been getting some mysteries from Netflix with the idea I can knit while I watch (I can’t read and knit at the same time like a lot of other people). I also catch up on favorite podcasts while knitting.

I feel so relaxed after reading all of these lists. Yours looks great.
