After work is done, and you don’t have any more chores to do, how do you spend your time? What makes up a “good day” for you?

There’s always stuff that needs repairing or maintenance around my rented apartment. I got an electric sander the other week which I used to make my >10 year old kitchen countertop and balcony furniture look brand new.
Right now I’m working on my mountain bike which I use to commute to work. I replaced the front chainring the other day to fix the chain slip which has been driving me nuts for months. Swapped out the chain and cassette while I was at it, and now I’m working on regreasing all the moving parts.
When I’m done with that I’ll descale and regrease all the internals on my espresso machine, since I haven’t done that in like a year. Then I got to fit actual chores like cooking, cleaning, haircuts and laundry in.
Always something to do, but I enjoy learning how to do my own repairs and maintenance to stay somewhat independent, plus it helps me save money so I don’t have to work as much.
Video games, music, books, building plastic model kits, meeting friends occasionally…
