Fun

List five things you do for fun.

1. I run. I have various chronic complaints that require me to do this, but it also means I can listen to whatever music I like, I can run to the places I love and I feel good afterwards, so it’s fun.

2. I do ballet. I dance in the kitchen and whenever there is space (and not too many people are watching)

3. I paint. I try to sell my paintings so it’s kind of work, but I enjoy it.

4. I read easy books. Something interesting but nothing intense or too heavy. My kids’ home-school curriculum has good options for the older years. Right now I’m reading The Return by Hisham Matar because a review of it by the New York Times made it seem very attractive. It hasn’t disappointed. The subject is heavy but it is written tenderly.

5. I nap. I love my naps.
