To dislike staying in during the day

We’ve been for a lovely breakfast this morning and popped to the supermarket for some lunch stuff for the week. We have now returned home and I am bored! We don’t have a huge house so maybe that’s why. I don’t want to watch TV, I’ve done all the cleaning, finished the last of my book…. bored! Is anyone else this way?

I love days at home when I can do exactly what I want. I can honestly say that I have never been bored in my life - there is always something to do or enjoy.

It’s definitely the lack of contact with people or seeing other people. I live in a big house in the country and if I have a whole Saturday and Sunday out here without going out, I end up in a state of depression…

If you'd rather go out, that's ok. Everyone is different.

I've got a lot of hobbies and interests I can fill my days with. Staying home doesn't have to mean cleaning, reading or watching telly.

I'm like a dog - I need my daily walk. Once I've done that - whether in the form of an actual dog walk, or a walk to the supermarket, or a walk for a coffee in town - I then have a limitless capacity to chill out watching TV and films!
I never experience boredom. There is literally always something I can watch on TV or YouTube!! 🙈
(Luckily I have a mentally stimulating full time job and maintain an exercise regime to mitigate the damage).

I also don’t think it’s house size I lived in very small places and very large houses but still very bored inside! I hate staying in and much prefer to be busy and out!!
I just don’t know what to do with myself
