Hope this is the right forum ;)

Aside from Nursing (or nursing school), what do some of you guys do to relax or take the stress off?

Myself, I regularly skydive (best stress relief ever created :D ), run and swim, ride motorcycles, and shoot [pistols and rifles] competitively.

How about you? :)

I do Taekwondo, nothing like kicking someone in the head when you are frustrated. Or taking all your aggresion out on a punching bag or "Bob" the man like dummy who can be anyone I want him to be.

I garden and ride my motorcycle in the fair weather. Then I make stain glass in the winter. I also make scrub hats so that I look different from everyone else in the O.R.( Then I make them for everyone else). After work I read to help unwind and I spend all my extra time here.:D

I knit! I loveeeeeeee to KNIT!!!!
