Now that places are shutting down, sports are done, and people are quarantining it’s social distancing, what are you doing to fill the time?

Post your best activities or ideas for those on here who may be having a hard time with the situation, or for those who may eventually.

Trying not to murder the 7 and 9
year old boys that I love more than anything. Or at least keep them from killing each other.

Read, watch old movies, the landscaping will
probably look great after a while.

Hope like heck that the damage is minimized as much as possible.
I saw a woman on Facebook complaining about how she has to stay home and deal with her kids all day and how she hated it. Well if you hate it so much, why did you go and have four freaking kids instead of just one or two?

I live on a lake that is also close to a river that flows into the Gulf of Mexico. It is stocked with large mouth bass and I like to go kayaking so I will have plenty at home to keep me occupied.


I'm very jealous my friend. Enjoy and stay safe.

Waiting for the FFVII Remake patiently. The biggest concern right now is whether or not I need to cancel my pre-order at Gamestop and just get it on PSN just in case the midnight release is canceled.

Going to try Black Mesa here soon. I hear it's a great Half-Life remake.

Not distancing or quarantined yet. Work with military returning from over seas and going overseas. None moving now but, still coming in trying to leave.

Glad I don't work in the grocery industry. Seen that someone that picks orders for Kroger saying they are working 12 hour days 7 days a week during all this. No time for them to be quarantined. We will be screwed when these places start getting hit with the virus and people have to stay home.

Working mostly. Watching a few shows. Training the new puppy and walking her as much as i can (for her benefit and mine).

I really wish I would take my free time and read but i dont have the focus.

I am NOT someone who does well being cooped up. I need to be out and around people. So this is driving me insane already.

Hunkered down in my bunker with my wife. Got a fridge full of food, a few bottles of good Kentucky bourbon and a decent size sack of Colorado bud.

Working remotely 8:30-5 M-F.
Free time spent: Walking dogs, playing video games, watching Netflix and WWE Network, matress rasslin with the wife, cooking.

I’m a hermit who hates the general public anyway, so this isn’t cramping my style at all.

I already work from home and the fridge, pantry, and bourbon are all stocked appropriately. Not a ton of impact to me yet - other than I like to go out for lunch some days to get me out of the house.

I live in the country so I can be outside, shoot some guns, walk the dog, build a fire etc.

Well I just found out Netflix is trying to take advantage of the situation and creates something called Netflix Party. It is an extension for the Chrome browser where you can watch movies with others in different places and have a group chat about it. I'm not sure I would like it though with having to watch it on a computer (unless you want to run an HDMI from a computer/laptop to a TV). You all ready to watch movies and TV shows together? [laughing]

I have worked entirely from home since 2017 besides occasional domestic travel so the actual daily stuff hasn't been that big of a deal.

However, my wife who is a stay at home mom typically spends most of the day out with our two smaller kids entertaining, grocery shopping, projects, etc...she is now home with both little one's all day which has been a bit different.

Biggest challenge is entertaining 3 kids under 7 years of age and not being able to leave the house. On a day to day basis I almost always hit the road for a country drive no more than an hour and often times will do it while on a conference call or something....anything to just get out of the house for a few.

The gym closing is a big PITA though. No clue what I am going to do when my auto alarm goes off at 5am tomorrow...I guess the treadmill for now...or go to Walmart and hope they have toilet paper or eggs.

My daughter wants to get a 1,000 piece puzzle and put it together so I guess I will run and get one this evening. Maybe I am sappy but any time you can spend time with family without all the distractions of phones, ipads, computers,etc is great time.
