Being an empty nester and having MS (no energy) I enjoy getting books electronically from my library and doing FusionCash each and every day...

I can relate. I have MS also. It makes anything that requires energy nearly impossible. I used to like to take walks and find things to do outside, but not so much anymore.

      I like to explore free new places. Parks, museums...just the outdoors
because there so much to see!

my fiance and i spend a lot of time out on our little patio
once it gets warmer out. even if he's just reading and i'm
playing on the laptop - it beats sitting around the living room.
i'll make cookies and lemonade and just relax. if you don't have
an outdoor space, find one? we like to go on walks (he loves
to hike, but i'm not a huge fan) so we'll meet in the middle
and go on nature walks.

we're into furniture "restoring" ...just taking old furniture pieces
from thrift stores or hand-me-downs and revamping them.
last summer, we fixed up and painted an outdoor bench that
turned out awesome. it cost less than $20 when it was all said
and done. we just used the paint samples you get from lowes for
the paint, and then sealed it. we love it! we're working on our
kitchen table and chairs next (craigslist, $30!)

you can rent movies from the library for free!
[ we all have a place in history. mine is in the clouds. ]

sleeping is the best way to save money IMO. You can do it anywhere and have as much of it you want for free.

I like to go metal detecting.  I get to be outside, I find interesting stuff and it is very low cost.
