  Free time is when all my homework and chores have been done for the day and I am "free" to do things that I enjoy doing. Usually I spend time watching television. As my favorite TV shows come on at specific times, I make sure that I finish my homework and chores well before the shows. Otherwise I will have to miss them. Mostly I manage to watch the shows but sometimes extra homework or chores may cause me to miss a show or two, but it is rare. Anyhow if I know that I am definitely not able to catch a show in time, I will just set the video recorder to tape the show so that I can watch it later. Another thing that I do in my free time is  potter  around in the garden with my mother. She plants a fair bit of flowers and I enjoy helping her take care of them.

It always fills me with wonder to watch seedlings  germinate , sprout leaves and ev...
