Re: What do you do, when you have nothing to do?
When I had a hysterectomy a few years ago, I was looking forward to having to do nothing. Mostly because I am ALWAYS doing something and to be forced to take it easy I thought would be a blessing.

This was taken 4 years ago. GoldRuler (now DollarHorse) and her husband came over for dinner on Christmas with their two dogs.
The two dogs in the front have now passed over the Rainbow Bridge (Aurora on the left and Clark on the right).
