What are you doing to kill time spent at home

My son played a game of Battleship with his friend over FaceTime the other day. That game is perfect for distance playing!

Losing my mind. Checking on some older members of the lodge, doing some housecleaning, decluttering, clothing donations ect. Entered the safes, cleaned, organized the unmentionables. Detailed the interiors of the Audi and GMC SUV. Haven't uncoverd the Harley yet and the Lincoln Mark III is still in storage. Got the lawn tractor and two pushmowers out and ready for action. Broke out the air compressor and filled up numerous tires. Got the screened in porch cleaned and set up. Yesterday I took out the watch box and treated about 15 leather straps on my dress watches. I had a gout flareup on my left foot last week, this has really curtailed my outside work.

Me too Brother. A couple of old popos.

I vacuum. Terrifying my dog. Then out for a piss. Her not me.

Cold beers. Inventory my zombie apocalypse wares. Laundry. Netflix. Xbox. Red Dead Redemption II. NFL Game Pass. Read on here. YouTube. Once a week doctors appointment. Reflect.

I wish I could say I've used my barbells. I haven't.

Some games are perfect for playing over video chat. I wish Scrabble was more conducive, but with the random letter selection from the bag it would be hard to coordinate. So instead my wife and I are left beating each other up yielding temporary grumpiness I don't like to cuss online, but the term "board-closer" has been uttered between sips of wine many times during the past week.

Today I'm going to try a game of 1-on-1 Risk with my son after I'm done with my home working shift. Looking forward to it

I never drink coffee, but instead, like a more refined person, drink tea. And yes I do hold up my baby finger when I drink it.

But a few days ago my wife enticed me to have a cup of coffee. It was pretty good, so I had another one.

Now I have the caffeine shakes so much I've been running around the house dusting, since I can't keep still.

Shaking and dusting seem like the perfect use of my non valuable time and the house has never looked better. I'm starting to think painting might be my next venture.

Honey......fire up the coffee pot......I'm going in.

Working remotely as I usually do.

Stay safe.

Blanksy, Make sure you dust all that gorgeous blown glass!

I’ve found myself rewatching some classics! Starting at Dr. No and working my way through!

Cooking, a lot of it. Cleaning, organizing, installing...

And drinking beer.

Calling on older church members as I’m a member of our church council, cleaning, organizing, washed, detailed and waxed her car and my truck, power washed house and patio, tomorrow I’m going to start reading Zen and the art of motorcycle maintenance, driving my wife nuts, going to cut grass this week for the first time this year, getting fat from lots of cooking, missing my granddaughter and Mom more than anything.

Power washing that’s a good one. I’m stealing that next good weather day thanks Tim

Ha! I was searching too. Looks like you found it. I’m drinking plenty of coffee from my Breville Barista Express. :)

Looks like a good one. Did you get it on the black market, or legitimately through an adoption agency?

Either way, good timing indeed. Spring is here and they're great for yardwork and chores.

This whole work from home business has collapsed the compartmentalization of life and created a situation where worlds that are usually separate are all combined (i.e. parenting, now the role of teacher to ones children, and employee/business owner) are all happening at exactly the same time. However, have been able to spend some time out of doors in the back yard, which has been great.

Working during the day. Drinking whisky then shit posting all over FB at night all while admiring the soft glow of the lume of my Rolex.

Sweeet! Are you going with a powered sub or doing box and amp ?

I love tinkering with car audio but in this age of highly complex infotainment systems there’s not much playing around before things start breaking.

Add a good quarter-inch of Johnny Walker Black to the coffee. You'll be calm (and back to sleep) in no time.

Still doing about the same as before. Except the library and ymca are closed. No hanging out in the square with a cuppa. And dating in the CVE? (CoronaVirusEra)

Yes, I have chips, sodas, stacks of DVDs, a deep freeze of choice meats and frozen foods, and in the sub basement, fifteen gross rolls of deluxe toilet paper. Vegetables? We can paint the reading room a nice shade of green if that'll work.

[Heff]

Listening to records and catching up on some shows. Have had this home theater setup for six months and it keeps getting better.

Not pictured is the HSU 15 inch sub behind the couch. Watching action movies with that thing is a whole other level.

I am busier than ever on the phone all day. None of it good.

I pop in and out of here.

Less time than I typically do. Nights are spent mostly as normal although I have had a few zoom video chats which have been fun.

Nothing has changed for me with the exceptions that the golf club is closed and I'm watching the news way more. Zoom meetings with CK's are fun!

Be Well and Stay Safe. Help a fellow human out who needs it.

Rehabbing shoulder from surgery so I’m home anyway. Spending a lot of time in the backyard to get out of the house.

[Fat_ninja]

I work 14 hours a day and then I lift for 30 mins and do the treadmill for 1-2 hours every day
