Apart from visit athomedad.org obsessively, I mean.
Sometimes I read. Paper things, rather than LCD things.
Sometimes I write. LCD and Paper things.
Sometimes I just enjoy sitting down.
In answering this question myself I've realized that most of my hobbies now involve my daughter, and her awakeness.
In the morning, I shave and shower while my daughter naps. Later in the day I'm likely emailing with friends, reading paper or magazine or book, writing fiction, thinking of napping but not actually doing it.
Usually I get stuff done, other times I might goof off or I might even decide to take a nap too!
The latter usually depends on if it was "Dad's night out" the night before.
and that. Actually, they quit napping a year or so ago, so now I have to spend time with them. :-)
What I used to do was multi-task: Throw on a load of clothes, nap, toss dishes in the dishwasher, nap, throw a load in the dryer, nap.
I miss naps.
Hi philipandrew,
When you wake up with make-up on your face you know what the kids were doing as you napped. I fell a sleep on the job last week and got a wet willie from my 3 year old.
When my kids nap I try to relax some sit at the computer, play a video game, but now I have a home remodel project I am doing I find quiet things to do, and there is always house work. I wish my scroll say was not so loud I would do more wood working
