Have been reading a lot and have a huge bag of books to take to the charity shop when they reopen. I also play Words With Friends (like Scrabble) on facebook with lots of people from around the world, mostly America. You can leave messages to people you play with and it's interesting to hear how they are coping with the pandemic. I am a crafter (cards, knitting & sewing) but funnily enough have not been in the mood to do any of it at the moment.Eleanorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10265071004938442239noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-280582018791422638.post-87187198363318333082020-06-29T03:55:41.753-07:002020-06-29T03:55:41.753-07:00Barbara ...

As my role in our company has all but disappeared now, I spend far too long blogging and blog reading. I read books intermittently but I seem to have been going through a lull of wanting to do that recently (so much for my 100 books in a year challenge!!). I've watched far too many boxsets of DVDs than can possibly be healthy, I've weeded when the weeds look bigger than the veggies and I am putting off housework whenever possible. BUT ... Van Life is now back on the immediate horizon and I can resume a much better, much simpler and much less stress free life and hopefully it will make me pull up my socks and get stuck into something properly again.Sue https://www.blogger.com/profile/04947919568474743963noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-280582018791422638.post-43054620614470690712020-06-29T02:00:32.554-07:002020-06-29T02:00:32.554-07:00Yes Barbara - I think Rachel is right - good old B...Yes Barbara - I think Rachel is right - good old British humour at work with Meanqueen's commentr. ##Thanks everyone.The Weaver of Grasshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13947971556343746883noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-280582018791422638.post-17865849057163627862020-06-29T01:18:02.019-07:002020-06-29T01:18:02.019-07:00Barbara, I don't know you but I do know Meanqu...Barbara, I don't know you but I do know Meanqueen and I can assure you she is a lovely person and her comment is said with a touch of good British humour.

No need to watch the clock. <br /> <br />Such a lot of lovely comments, they were all interesting to read and it's kind of people to take the time to reply to your question.<br /><br />Well almost all interesting except for one (there's always one isn't there?) I can't understand why someone (Meanqueen) would just say Hello I'm busy. There's no need to be so abrupt, surely if so busy then the better alternative is not to comment. But hey it takes allsorts as they say. <br /><br />I hope you enjoy your day and your week.

Still did my gardening, still went out on my bike when I wanted to, still shopped at the supermarket. When I wasn't doing those things I simply sat indoors reading or doing nothing. I probably considered lock down finished before other people and certainly don't consider it still in force but then I don't mix with hundred of people every day, creating risks for myself.

Now I have time, and have followed up on many of your suggestions.<br /><br />Boredom isn't a problem for me--there's gardening, cooking, working on furniture to sell, researching and listing glassware and china on ebay, getting things ready for my booths, keeping up with the blogs I enjoy, and porch-sitting. That last is such a pleasure. I noticed in England and Ireland that porches are not common, and I cannot imagine living without that roofed outdoor space. We have two rockers, a porch swing, and a fan that hangs from the ceiling to keep a breeze going, and can sit out there for hours if we want, just looking at the gardens and making plans. <br /><br />The other thing is that I am not alone. I have my husband, and he makes plenty of messes for me to clean up! Joking, but there's truth in that. He's good company, helps with cooking and kitchen cleanup and even laundry sometimes. So that's a big difference.

I stay busy enough that I have many things I want to do but do not get around to them all. I will admit to a bit of laziness since the lockdown started as I seem to have lost some of the incentive to get started on things. I spend a lot of time reading blogs and books, surf the internet, do some sewing on quilts or smaller projects and I have an ongoing challenge of organizing and scanning many old family photos. I occasionally watch a program or movie on TV and I try to keep up household chores, laundry and cooking. There is nothing exciting about my days but I do stay busy.
