Weather permitting I would be gardening. Inside activities for me include sewing, knitting, crocheting. If I am really energetic I would be painting or decorating as an ongoing project.
I always have projects on the go and am never bored.

Depends what is spare time. I spend most days outside, in garden, or walking the bush with friends/neighbours/family, visiting, we have a number of clubs in town to help or partake. After sundown, I do surveys for the day, Also do some crochet, knitting, reading, office work for others, and I spend 3 mins every hour on rebounder so I am not sitting too long a time.
Love the rebounder. That would be the new thingy for me, still read, do crosswords, jigsaws, but usually with others, so we are socialising

Nowadays I am spend more time with family members and enjoy preparing wonderful family home made meals for the ones I love. I go out of my way to prepare meals that create a sense of connection with the people I care about..
I'm spending more time on exercise,hobbies and creative pursuits , and better looking after my emotional and physical well-being
In these covid riddled times I'm exercising caution and take less risks and actively looking after my physical health, building my immunity

I like to drive to the ocean and have a swim in summer, travel to different towns, watch a good movie, go to Cinema with a friend then lunch, read on laptop, walk, a little gardening, reading relaxing and meditation.

I love creating cute crochet items which I sell at Artisan Markets and friends and followers. It has become my side hustle since retirement 4 years ago and I love finding new and cute items to make every day.

I have not spare time, always something to do. Study, selling on ebay and gardening, not too mention the normal chores around the house. I do take time to read a little before bed and watch TV a bit, but cutting back on TV to give me more time for better things.

Sounds amazing wish I could draw! A few things I love to do in my spare time are looking after My neice and nephews. I love watching TV series with my boyfriend. I love walking along the beach and patting dogs with my neice. I love listening to music and dancing like noones watching haha. And I also love reading and writing stories.

I really enjoy gardening outdoors and watching television. Other than that I like an afternoon tea out with family on a weekend.

Reading and writing. I self publish short stories in my spare time, and I'm working on a full length novel right now.

I do like gaming and TV, movies etc, but I tend to forget they exist.

It doesn't cost anything, although you can spend money if you want. I made my own covers with free stock photos when I first began in 2021, but I've since invested nearly $150 or so into paid stock...

Nice. I wrote a children's story it just needs a proper cover. It is available but think i need to add more. https://www.smashwords.com/books/view/372173

How much does it usually cost to self publish

It doesn't cost anything, although you can spend money if you want. I made my own covers with free stock photos when I first began in 2021, but I've since invested nearly $150 or so into paid stock photos so my covers now look that bit better.

Typically, though, if you're aiming for the romance genre, thrillers or sci-fi etc. then you want to get a custom made cover which can set you back anywhere from $50 to $500+ depending on what you want it to look like, so self publishing can be costly but hey, you're getting 95% of the final profits and cutting out the middle man. It's not a bad trade-off, all things considered.
