Exercise (mostly cardio, some basic body weight stuff), condensed audiobooks (https://12min.com/ https://12min.com/), and working on various projects (currently working on knowledge engineering/automation with a personal memex).

Pass out or plan stuff that never gets done.

I run most days, or do yard work. I’m getting back into exercising so my goal is to exercise every day for 30-60 minutes, pushing to 60-90 once I can handle the altitude of Colorado Springs (7100 feet at my home). That’s right after work. Socialize (board games, RPGs, trivia via Zoom) 2-3 nights a week. That’s after running or yard work. That gets me to 7pm or so, after that is time with my wife or reading and learning.

I try to do my audiobooks and internet browsing in the morning. I try to exercise at lunch (home gym, crossfit style workouts) or do some reef aquarium maintenance. After work is usually some yard work (everything from lawn and garden to cutting up trees that have fallen in the back acres), play some banjo, play some pool, watch shows with the family, starting to sometimes take the boat out. The weekend tends to fill with errands and more yard work. Some more home projects are coming up to, like rebuilding a deck and some retaining wall work. It is about time to do some ATV rides and get back into hiking. It sounds like more than it is. I am switching up lots of things. I miss board games since no one around here plays and the family doesn’t enjoy them.

I extrude filament and sell it online: https://medium.com/endless-filament/make-your-filament-at-home-for-cheap-6c908bb09922 https://medium.com/endless-filament/make-your-filament-at-ho... Whatever cash I get I use it to fund hobbies and recently I got a lathe and CNC mill which I've yet to learn how to use them to fullest.

Sleep. I work in the bar business, so going home generally has me getting in bed immediately. In the mornings, I do thinks like others are mentioning here. Chores, hobbies, consuming content.
