    I love going for long rides on my bicycle. Fortunately for me I live in a city with hundreds of kilometers of bike paths.

    Winter is coming, I'll miss my bicycle

    Have yet to work as a nurse, but I can tell you that while in nursing school and working full time, time for fun was very few for me....so going to the cinema and having a nice dinner with any of my friends was a way to relax. I also love to read, it has been awhile since I last read a book with the exception of in between semesters. The idea of wine and relaxing music is awesome. My cat has passed away, so I have no cuddling partner for in home movies ;(

    Lol, Viva, you might keep people guessing all night!

    Although, what Cheryl said would have been quite clever
    You're kidding.....nobody knows what Vitamin A is? Vitamin Z is a little harder to guess, but let's just say that it keeps me mellowwwwwwwww, LOL!

    Quit and find a job that doesn't mentally tax you, emotionally exhaust you and physically eat you up.

    I currently workout to help relieve stress. I didn't do this as much through nursing school but now that I have the habit I love it! I think I will start getting massages every couple weeks also. That sounds amazing!
