That time between dinner and bed? It’s the least productive time for me. I’m tired from the day, low energy, and generally uninspired. I envy the people who spend those hours cleaning, creating something, or otherwise being industrious. My circadian rhythm doesn’t work that way. My most energetic hours are first thing in the morning.

I have always felt, though, that I could be doing *something*. Content enough to drink my tea or red wine and catch up on reading or Netflix, I haven’t spent much time considering what else I could be doing.

So, I’ve decided my next goal is to fix that. I am not crafty, so knitting, sewing, scrapbooking or similar activities are a non-starter. I generally do my exercising earlier in the day and it’s hard for me to even fathom moving a whole lot later in the day, so that’s probably not going to happen either (except for my weekly evening paddle league in the winter, occasional evening golf in the summer, and once a week or so dog walks with friends). I’m looking for something I can do most nights that makes me feel useful.

Any ideas? If so, please share! Tell me what you do in the evenings to pass the time. Maybe I’ll get inspired and finally land on the one thing for me.
