Chris - Typically if it has been a rough day, of course I will like to get it off my chest and spill the beans to my wife. Does she like it, probably not, so she will head for a glass of wine to listen to me whine. Then after that, I like to sit and watch a good show on TV with her, or go outside and watch a beautiful sunset, or sometimes just listening to some music will calm me down. I wish I could still go out and play sports or do something physical, but the knees, back, shoulder, etc. don't allow too much of that anymore.

By the way, great question. I enjoyed reading about what everyone else does.

We like to greet our cat who greets us, we walk out to the garden/deck area see how the plants are faring.  Then we change into our workout clothes and go to yoga class (depends on which day of the week), or work out at home.  Then we usually make dinner together and have a glass of wine while we cook.  A

These are all great responses! I've enjoyed hearing what you guys  do and am going to implement a few of those.

 

I usually come home and share the day with my wife. We then usually watch our rabbit scurry about the condo, make dinner, I do school work for my MBA and she watches tv and reads. On bad days however school work gets put on hold and we go out and do something fun together! Fun has to happen at somepoint during the day and if it doesn't happen on its own I make it happen!

I sit on my bed and watch that day's episode of General Hospital. It is the only soap I've ever watched and I've watched it since its very first episode in 1962 or 1963. It's my guilty pleasure.

Our dog is always happy to see us after a long day, so I will sit and hold him for a while, so we both can wind down.  He is 15 years old.

I have many ways to unwind. Tonight I took my dog for a long walk. Sometimes I like to watch a DVD, sometimes listen to music. Sometimes hang out with friends. The seasons make a difference, too. In the summer I like to play in my garden.
