How do you fill your time off work?

My work is encouraging me to use my holiday days, which I haven't touched all year, but I'm not too keen.
I've structured my weekly routine around my job, and without it there I don't know what I'll do all day. Weekends I can handle, since they're just two days, but a whole week off work? I'm liable to sit around getting sad because my hobbies only take up so much time, and then when I do go back to work I'll struggle to get back into the swing of things.

Does anyone else dread taking time off work? And if so, how do you deal with it?

    YES!

    Lol I can't function well if my routine is disturbed and six days of typing in an office IS my routine. I don't know what to do and can't do anything when I know I should be at work working.

    When I am forced to use up holiday I do painting or listen to my favourite CD. Spend time in the garden. It helps but I still have that deep unhappiness at that I should be at work.
