Existing is difficult. What are your favorite ways to unwind / chill out?

I personally have gotten really into crafting. Doesn't take much in terms of tools and it feels good to get good at something without thinking about making money. My family also loves the gifts :)

Last year was my first year gardening. It's January, so it's all hazy memories now, but I remember looking forward to coming home from work every day so I could check on now my vegetables were growing and I could take a few minutes and escape life. For 99.9% of human history, 99.9% of humans engaged with growing and caring for plants every day (in one way or another), and it feels good to get some of that back

I tried growing some tomatoes last summer but struggled. I think I didn't fill my containers with enough dirt. Next year I hope to have a tub of kratky veggies + give tomatoes another shot!
