I put in fifty one hours at my day time job (salary, no overtime-bummer), thirty two hours at my second job (they had two days between projects), five hours at a third job (usually only twenty to twenty two hours per month),  helped a neighbor with his business for about ten hours, put in half of a flagstone patio in my front yard, Laundry, read two books, reviewed investments and revised this quarter's goals, did some grocery shopping, walked the dogs, made dinner/lunches for the family, watched a few movies with the family, had a few virtual cocktail hours, held my dad's hand (over the phone) while he gets through double pneumonia, kept up with my point to clicks/surveys/posting, watched some motivational videos on YouTube and caught up on some sleep.

I worked from home anyway so I'm still working, it's just slow these days so I have plenty of time to work on my garden. I thought I would be doing so much more with my time than usual lol but quarantine is not so different from my regular life.

Watching television and more television and then some more television LOL.  I can't do much physically so I do what I can on my computer (of course) and then when I exhaust that I go to the tv and in between I might here and there text a couple of people to seen how they are doing.  My son does all the cooking and 98 percent of the cleaning.  Today though I am going to start walking up and down my long hallway a couple of times for some kind of exercise.  I hate going there but every so often I go to the grocery store during senior citizen hour which is not my favorite time to get up 6:30 a.m. but got to do what you got to do right?

I stay busy by watching TV, listening to music, cleaning up my place, video and phone calls, and with the occasional grocery run.

I usually catch up on binge watching different television shows (e.g., Keeping Up with the Kardashians, Mama's Family, Golden Girls, etc.). I also use the time to work out and develop my online brand and expand my social circle.

We are in the middle of building a 999 square foot house for my parents, also doing yard work, getting a garden started, we have twins graduating so I am on the senior parent council & am fundraiser chairperson, I also have an 8th grader home so we have lots of fun with homeschooling too! Yeah, I am a tad busy! But I love my crazy life!

Hi! :D :)

I have not been off just been working on my business and trying to get some time to relax a bit. I think this moment of standstill may be a good thing depending on how you see things. :heart: :rose: :heart: :rose: :heart: :rose: :heart: :rose: :heart: :rose: :heart: :rose: :heart: :rose: :heart: :rose: :heart: :rose: :heart: :rose: :heart: :rose: :heart: :rose: :heart: :rose: :heart: :rose: :heart: :rose: :heart: :rose: :heart: :rose: :heart: :rose: :heart: :rose: :heart: :rose: :heart: :rose: :heart: :rose: :heart: :rose: :heart: :rose: :heart: :rose: :heart: :rose: :heart: :rose: :heart: :rose:

I have started practicing meditation, which I find calming and fills in time as well.

I've been spending my time listening to music and watching TV. I've also gotten back on FC during this time, before this I just didn't have the time for the site! But I'm glad I do now, it's a productive use of my time these days!

I got fatigued just reading everything you do during a typical week!  You are a busy person with a lot of energy.  Good for you!  I am 71 and retired since 65.  I have to admit my life is pretty laid back, but especially now that we have this virus.  Maybe a little too laid back!  Ha!!! I really miss doing some of my ordinary activities.
