I love to read and have read as long as I can remember. I like to read historical romance books. Yeah, I know they are sappy, but they are so interesting. At night, after the kids are in bed, I fill up the bathtub and soak while reading a book. Then I get in bed and read for another 30 minutes or so.

That is really enjoyable isn't it. I do the same thing every night. I good hot bubble bath and a romance novel is very quite relaxing. I also like to listen to some slow music and sip on some Aliza.

I light a few candles, get my favorite guilty pleasure cd (A mix cd with Sonny and Cher songs and well as a few power ballads from the 80's) in my walkman, get a good book, fill the bath, use lavendar scented bath oil in the water and crawl in...
I sing to myself with the bathroom echo and read my book, while lounging in the hot tub...
I have become a master of toe technique... Lift the plug to let out some of the cooling water, replace the plug, then turn on the faucet for more hot water all without my toes... Never even have to lift my head off the bath pillow...
When I am done in the tub, I crawl into bed (there is nothing like crawling into bed with warm relaxed muscles from the tub) and read a bit more often falling asleep reading, my husband will come in and remove the book from my face when he comes to bed.. LOL

I take a long hot shower and cuddle up with a good Historical Romance or Vampire novel!!!! I love to read too, I just don't have a whole lot of time. I finished a book a few weeks ago, the first one I was able to finish since the birth of my daughter 14 months ago LOL! :)

I love a hot steamy bubble bath also. I used to like reading romance novels but these days the only reading I do is for school.

My favorite thing to do is watch tv and giggle while everyone is sleeping. During the day it is kid tv (usually just on in the back round while they play), then my husband tv, at night it is my turn. It releases all those daily pressures for me. Then I am able to sleep and feel like I had a good rest.

Lately I find I just don't have time for anything relaxing. once everything is done, I'm too exhausted to shower let alone take a bath.
I'd guess the only thing I find relaxing nowadays is Yahoo Answers! lol

I love soaking in the tub and listening to music while in there just relax and forget about everything.

Only free time i get is, like you, bed-time. So when i do get to, I like to relax, with some popcorn, and watch some of my old time favorite movies, like, hair spray, girls just wanna have fun, etc. It reminds me of good ole' days when i just hung out with my friends. And every now and then, if i get an afternoon alone, i like to watch Lifetime.

I like to surf the internet and watch tv back here in MY bedroom, haha. No kids, no hubby -- just some down time! I also enjoy scrapbooking and other crafts.
