It's been asked before, but not here...?

If you didn't need money- How would you live your life?

Assuming you had all the money you to live and you've already bought everything you could possibly ever want. What would you spend your time doing every single day until death?

When the subject of money comes up many people always mention charities, religion, giving away money to family, stuff like that but that doesn't really have anything to do with what you would do in your day to day life in terms of time. What are those things that you enjoy so much right now that you'd do them almost every day or so? Or perhaps it could be something you think you'd enjoy spending your time on.

I know after my last layoff, after one week of sleeping in and another week to clean the house, I was bouncing off the walls in boredom. I do have serious hobbies but nothing else holds my attention like my job.

Update:

I guess everybody wants to work and have a purpose in life.

My mom would make appointments with all her doctors and specialist and do all the follow up they ask of her. She would have two appointments a day for the rest of her life if she didn't have to bother anyone for a ride. She's not sick, she's just a sad person. She would do it because none of it is out of her pocket.

    1) Quit my full-time job. I hate it so much that some mornings I actually cry about having to waste any of my life there.

    2) Continue on with my freelance CAD design because I enjoy it. ..and I would do the work for free if it didn't bother the owner any.

    3) Devote some time to my hobbies...sewing and flying model aircraft. Right now between a full-time job I hate and the part-time CAD design (#2 above) I have no time to do any of it, not even a little. I don't even have time to play with my RC sim.

    4) Travel around the country.

    5) Volunteer work...meals on wheels, feeding the homeless at holidays, etc.

    6) I would like to volunteer at a hospital but I don't think I would handle it very well. I'm a rather sensitive soul and am easily upset.

    7) Start going to a good natural healing/homeopathic doctor (like Dr. Weil) to get myself on track to getting healthy and remaining that way for life. I would also do the same for my dad and sister.

    First thing I would move to Florida and buy a motorcycle for my husband and pay off bills and my kids college tuition. I don't see myself living a luxury life laying at the beach. I would keep my life I have now,
