spent time
Whiled away moments
Spent time is time that has been used or devoted to something: We spent time reviewing the contract, Time spent with family is never wasted.
The phrase emphasizes duration and investment rather than mere occurrence—you spend time on things that matter or demand attention.
It often carries a sense of allocation, as if time were a resource being budgeted.
