I'm bored too. All we do is go to the park and I now HATE the park. Or for a walk. Meh. I usually comfort eat and get enjoyment from food Blush but I'm even bored of that. Nothing I want to eat, never mind cook. But if I don't eat I'm sick as I'm pregnant

OMG @LagneyandCasey was the West Drayton Tesco? That IS glamour. I dream of such excitement.

Not that one! I'm about 200 miles from there but it sounds like it's worth the trip Grin

Bored here too. I’ve started going to bed at 7pm. And yet I’m still tired in the mornings

Weird isn't it, apathy bleugh

I said to DH just the other day, when he wondered why I was going to bed early for me, that I'd decided to just sleep through 2020. I can't think of anything else to do most evenings.

Another one so bored I started exercising.

Also treated myself with a different supermarket today, Sainsburys instead of Tesco. It was in fact more exciting, and so does not belong on this thread.

I’m in NI so our new lockdown starts at midnight tonight for 2 weeks (at least!) No that I was going anywhere anyway Grin

I see some have beaten me to it but I came to suggest gaming (Xbox)

tootyfruitypickle · 26/11/2020 15:56

Agree with suggestion of The Sims. A long time ago (20 years + ) a boyfriend took it off me as I wasn't eating or sleeping, and I am very much routine driven, so this was an alarming departure. We'll be in 2022 before you know it.

I can never return to that game, quite simply the only addiction I have every experienced!

TheDogsMother · 26/11/2020 16:09

I'm thinking of switching my Sainsburys delivery to Click and Collect. It will be a trip out and something to do Grin
