What are you doing to keep occupied.

[Bigjigsaw]

As my name suggests I'm doing a big jigsaw(doing my head in). Getting the photos into an album after all these years.
Tidying the garden. Sorting out cupboards. I was baking but can't get flour.
Going for a walk every other day. Shopping on a Tuesday.
Face timeing our children and grandchildren.
What are you doing to keep busy. Are you getting bored.

I have annual leave booked this week, otherwise I'd be working, but I'm filling that time by doing DIY (instead of reclining on a sunlounger with a cocktail in Corfu, which is what I was meant to be doing). I'm knocking off all the little bits I've been meaning to do for ages but not got around to. So far I've sprayed some picture frames a different colour and measured up to order a new slate hearth. Other things on my list include digging out some new beds in the garden, touching up some paintwork, pressure washing the patio, etc etc...

Sleeping.

DH is working from home and the dds are old enough to occupy themselves with minimal input for once. I have a constant banging headache and feel completely zapped. Not otherwise ill but I could easily spend all day every day asleep. Added to that I'm going out of my skull not being able to go out and sleeping stops me thinking about it or worrying about the virus.

@TheChosenTwo
On behalf of your relative, join FB group covering his area and there’ll be volunteers able to do his shopping.

Listening to different radio stations on my digi radio I've never tried before.

Colouring with pencils in one of those mindful relaxation type colouring books.

Playing a songpop game on line where you have to guess the song.

Taking my dog on different routes/walks daily

Sorting out photographs

Browsing stuff online that I can't afford

Garden stuff, being more leisurely about dog walks instead of rushing her on as I need to go to work, tapestry, relearning a language I started learning when I was a child, taking more time over cooking and baking, reading books I’ve had in a pile for ages, FaceTiming family and friends.

@JKScot4 thank you, I joined it last week and someone called me the same evening. I was so grateful. I’m naturally very wary of strangers stepping in to help him, he’s been scammed out of a hell of a lot of money over the last few years by ‘well meaning strangers’ but the lady that called me has said if I need her to drop him some shopping off, she would shop for him, send me a picture of the receipt and then tell me her bank details to transfer the money which was just so kind of her. I haven’t told her his address or anything just yet, he actually isn’t desperately running low on anything (from what he says), he’s just used to his own routine of getting up and going out for his daily exercise and whatever fresh bits he fancies. When I called him last night (as i do every night), I asked him again if he needed any groceries as I could get them to his door without him needing to go out. He said he didn’t need anything. Then I called him this evening and he said he went out to get bananas and some cereal as he had run out. It’s very hard not to get cross with him to be honest. He’s one of these people who thinks he’s immortal I’m sure...

I’m glad you’re all so productive
I’m in a kind of torpor
I’m just keep planning my escape route and which part of my town have I not explored

There just are not enough hours in the day!

Apart from the usual involved in raising kids and running a home, our youngest DD is in hospital, so I visit her twice daily. Two hours in the morning, and two late afternoon/early evening. Luckily it's only a 15 minute drive from home. While sitting with her, I have been knitting (haven't done any since a kid) squares, which I will make into a blanket for her, Have also been learning crochet.
I get my exercise by parking the car as far away as possible from the hospital in the morning. I can't at night as it's dark when I come out.
I have been decluttering at home, more baking than usual. At night I relax in a bubble bath with candles.

Best wishes for your daughter
