What do you do for fun?

[searchingforGodlyanswers]

Now that you are a thirtysomething, what do you do for fun? When you want to do something just for enjoyment and nothing else. What is appropriate for someone who is a thritysomething to do for fun??

I often go to the senoir center for a game of bingo. j/k, but it might not be bad idea...

Watch my dentures soak and the drive cars slowly like those little precious older ladies who get in front of you when you're in a hurry. (Joking!)
(Actually I think my former Bible teacher before I moved drove about as fast as me or faster! lol)

I've actually gone to Bingo, but it wasn't a senior center.
I've done cake walks, face painting (at home and at church), etc.
Taken child places like to park to swing on the swing set next to her, ride the merry go round, feed the ducks and geese. Also taken her to festivals (Octoberfest/Fall festival), parties, the zoo, carnaval, to my previous Bible teacher's house.
Blow bubbles off the top of the loft and watch my child scramble to get them or to get out of the way.
Act silly to make child laugh. Entertain child. Laugh with child.
Laugh at the jokes people make on CF.
Watch t.v. (if you want I can list shows I watch)
Get on the p.c. and post here. Also playing a couple MSN games & or juggling CF posting and the games: http://zone.msn.com/en/betrapped/default

(I just keep clicking on the play now option).
And "surfing the web" (cowabunga!)
Since my husband, daughter, and I have fairly recently moved, opening boxes of stuff sometimes becomes a surprise in each box (You should have seen my husband ripping through them acting more excited than me lol), but after a while it gets boring.
Seeing how much money I can save husband when I grocery shop.
Listening to radio while driving by self.
Read magazines/books while waiting for child to get off van stop.
And one of my favorites:
Sleep.

I'll add more on later as I come up with them ( I guess my role of entertaining daughter has now started hee hee-undivided attention).

Do you take classes or do the videos?

I have a whole bunch of the Billy Blanks Tae Bo videos that I got from Dollar General for only $1.00 (plus tax) each.

I just noticed the video I have on my pc desk has a yin yang sign between the Tae and the Bo! Does that mean it's like a lot of yoga practices? They don't seem to have anything in the movies that I have seen yet that I recognize as being something Christians should not practice...

My husband and I are into sports. We have season tickets to soccer and hockey games. We watch college and NFL football on tv, especially with my in-laws. We play games alot--his family is big into Euchre and other card games. I do scrapbooking and singing. My husband likes to ride motorcycles with his friends and he's really into photography a lot. We also like to travel, go to the movies, theater, concerts, and opera.

At the moment 'fun' is a trip out of the house... anywhere (I have an 8 week old and and breastfeeding!)

Before that my best fun things to do would be having friends over for a meal and a bottle of wine followed by a great board game, or a meal at a nice restaurant, or a country walk followed by a nice pub meal with a warm fire .... hey, look at thart, they all include food!

 

[JPPT1974]

I do the taebo vidoes
Billy Blanks btw is a devout Christian
Thought I might tell you all that.

 

[Butterfly2005]

I sing, play music, play the piano or guitar, read, surf the net, take a walk, get together with friends and maybe head to a local thrift shop to see what treasures I can find.

I like to go to baseball games, play baseball with teens, play fantasy baseball, collect baseball cards and watch baseball. I like to watch college football and some basketball. I usually watch TV while I am posting as well!!

None of which my wife likes. I do enjoy watching movies and going to the mall with her too. We like to travel together as well.

 

[Josh3908]

Well, I play baseball (and coach) competetively, play basketball for fun, rock climb, mountian bike, skateboard, workout, mess around on the computer, watch movies, TP peoples cars, play pool sometimes, lazer tag, listen to punk rock music. Go watch baseball and basketball games.

Pretty much exactly what I did 10+ years ago.

What do I do for fun? well, my wife and I have weekends off and we are devout fulltime parents and LOVE it. We took our son and daughter to the park for kite flying, scooters and family fun! Every day is a blessing, but today , the last day of the year, just seemed so perfect, I never wanted it to end!

What I do versus what I would LIKE to do....

DO: surf the net, play with the cats, snooze, listen to music and usually make up my own twisted lyrics, take a walk, take a drive, get lost in crime shows on tv, read, stare up at the stars and/or moon at night and daydream I'm in BC

Want to do: attend as many hockey games as possible, ride roller coasters, travel to state parks and actually spend time there, play frisbee (need a partner!), play games, relax by the water (no water in Indiana worth looking at....)

I'm sure there are more.
