What is 'fun' for you?

Everyone looks at having fun differently. Fun for me might be dancing with my kids or reading at a poetry reading. For others it might be playing video games, going to the movies or playing softball. Each person know what makes them smile and also when to comprimise to have fun with others.

When there is a shortage of cash, then the usual fun activities may have to be cut or reduced. Fun can still happen though. For movie buffs, rent and pop your own popcorn and drink soda from a two litre bottle. If you love dancing look for a 'ladies night' event or go somewhere that does not have a cover charge. Afterall, are you going to the club for the people or for the music to dance?

If books make you happy, hit the library. If listening to music is your stress relief, then check Youtube or MySpace and listen free until you can afford to purchase. If you miss the arcade, then do a small tournament with friends on a system that hosts 4 controllers.

If you have a drop income or if you need to deal with other priorities, it does not mean that you can not have fun. You just have to adjust your lifestyle. If you are newly married or have young children, you're not as flexible to go out. However, couples can still have their special time together - establish and follow a bedtime routine for the children!

It's all in your hands - only you can help yourself have fun.
