I live alone, no partner, no kids. I'm really struggling to fill my time. I've been up for two hours now, I've cleaned the house, washed my hair. I don't have a lot of money. I'm really struggling to know how to fill my weekend?

Visit your local library? As well as reading books, non fiction books on anything that interests you or arts and crafts/cookery books to get ideas. Window shopping, I love just wandering around even if not buying anything, maybe a coffee and people watching if finances stretch. A walk in a local nature reserve/woods. Youtube have a whole wealth of fitness videos eg yoga that would fill an hour too. Baking.Decluttering. See if a friend is free for a catch up-I find the spontaneous meet ups are sometimes the most easily organised with my friends!
Hope you find something to do.

Go to the library? Find some great books to get through this weekend ? Go for a run? Start doing park run? Do you have a garden you can start gardening? Join a running club. Join a walking club? Start a box set. Volunteer at a charity shop? Volunteer at help the aged. Join a dating app

Go for a walk.
Make something new for lunch or dinner.
Have a look at zooniverse while it's cooking and see if there are any projects that you fancy volunteering in (all done online).

Do you like to craft? For example knitting can be done with a few supplies from the pound shop. I've been doing my family tree recently. They have a month free trial on ancestry then it's 13.99 a month. Which I felt was a lot but I've spent hours and hours on it so value for money for me.
Equally free Netflix trial or similar? If you've already done one you could spend some time trying to set up a new email for another freebie Grin

Baking! always the answer

TheoneandObi · 14/03/2020 10:56

I was going to say bake!
But go to your local
Dog shelter and volunteer your time. Dogs can't pass on coronovirus and will always be pleased to see you!
