If you’re not a tv watcher…

[CdnCarrie]

What do you do at home in the evenings?

Just something we were discussing at work today.

 

[TippyThomas]

Online, listening to podcasts/audio books, going to the animal shelter to help, reading, walking, biking, games, chores, and general household stuff.

Television has become a wasteland. Youtube, podcasts, chores or a good book.

I have certain shows I like to watch, but on nights when nothing is on I like to read. If the weather is nice, we sometimes go for a walk or sit by the fire pit. Otherwise there is always chores to do. Sometimes I will watch old tv shows that I loved, like the Office, or Parks and Rec if nothing is on, but I am usually doing something like folding laundry while I watch.

Right now I’m binge watching “MI-5”. When finished, I’ll pick up a book or two I’ve been reading. Somehow, I now enjoy reading more than one book at a time.

I’m reading, and checking the Disboards every now and then!

Why surf Disboards..... Duh....

 

[BlueStarryHat]

I only...well, generally...watch the local and world news from 6-7 p.m. and then later on I watch TV in bed for an hour or so before shutting out the light. The rest of the time I'm either on the computer, reading, or doing some sort of craft-right now it's crochet.

I’d have to say it is mostly reading that has replaced my tv watching time. Books and online. There are other things like meetings, events and tasks to do, the latter even more so now that it stays light later in the evening.

I read, or do little things to catch up, things I don't get done during the day because I'm working- fold laundry, sort thru my sock drawer, grade lab reports (so that means working at home), messenger chat with my sisters or friends, etc. Sometimes DH, DD, SIL and I play games like Farkle or Rummikub, or I'll work on a jigsaw puzzle. Sometimes DH and I work on the Sunday NYT crossword puzzle. Just random things... and sometimes we watch "old" TV shows (like Big Bang) or series (Breaking Bad, Suits, etc).

Listening to SirriusXM........on my TV.

Speaking of wastelands.

 

[CdnCarrie]

Listening to SirriusXM........on my TV.

Just sit and listen?

Just sit and listen?

Usually while reading either a magazine or something on the Internet. But yes, sometimes it's just nice to be listening to music, and talking to my wife..

 

[ronandannette]

We do watch our fair share of TV, but I spend more evening hours listening to podcasts and web-surfing, including the DIS. I play the odd computer game while listening and do all my reading in bed, at the end of the evenings. One thing I almost never do on weekday evenings is chores. Just not up for it after a long work day.

 

[AustinTink]

Most nights it’s cook, clean up after, walk the dog, do yoga and surf the net.

 

[gmi3804]

I plot revenge against my sworn enemies.

 

[jalapeno_pretzel]

We aren't home most evenings until 8-9. Exercise classes & kids activities mostly. So then by the time I shower & scroll on the phone/computer a bit, I'm headed to sleep.

 

[AnnaS]

A little TV - we subscribe to two Italian channels and watch a soap opera show (30 minutes/weeknights), some news/movies. I like to watch some old shows (like Everybody Loves Raymond/always makes me laugh).

Some reading here and there, some solitaire, walking if the weather is nice/sit at the beach after dinner watch the sunset. FaceTime with my grandchildren. Don't usually run errands in the evening. Surf the web. Paperwork/house work depending on how busy my day is.

 

[MamaMermaid]

Reading, videogames, movies.
