Things to do at home

[hardtailstar]

Following on from my other thread about my burns accident, I am now a month into being signed off work and will be for the foreseeable future

 

I am after things to do at home other than what I have been doing which is:

 

TV & Film watching

Completing Youtube!

Xbox games

Podcasts & audio books

 

Anybody have any ideas or suggestions?

 

Maybe free stuff to learn for IT to keep my brain going!

 

I cant do anything that involves lots of moving, basically I am confined to chairs, so will be at a desk or on sofa

 

Thanks all,

 

Bill

InstantWild - helping scientific research. Looking at camera trap images to identify and tag wildlife around the world. I have found it rather addictive

When I was signed off for 6 months following back surgery, I researched my family tree

My family tree is all researched unfortunately. Well its a good thing but unfortunate I cant do it.

During my 3 months of lockdown I joined hackthebox.eu with the aim of owning 1 box per week. I'd spend the morning hacking away and left the afternoon free of other stuff. The community there is excellent and will help out when you ask (they will not give you the answer but will point you in the right direction) Edited December 4, 2020 by tosh74

Have you considered bug finding?

My own thread.... haha. There's two things I haven't done on my list!

[Jcx500]

I’ve found music production to be a fun thing to do in my spare time

[Jawloms]

Depends how much of a challenge you're after. Learn sign language? I don't know how limited your movement is......

Writing? Could be blogging, short stories, poetry.

Drawing or some sort of art?

Knitting/crotchet?

- Start a book. If someone can write 50 Shades, I'm sure anyone can write a book.

 

- Get into Fishkeeping.

Thanks for all the suggestions

 

Will look at them and see what takes my fancy
