Not bored. A little stir crazy but not bored. I have plenty of stuff to do. I just hate that we can't go out. But you can go out. Unless you live in another country perhaps where they've actually put everyone on house arrest. I go out three times every day...walk my dog in the morning, then a walk by myself at noon-ish, and a walk late in the afternoon. But not out to dinner. Not out to events. We are going for walks but we can't go to certain parks because people that normally didn't even go are flocking to them. We can't go to flea markets. Our weekend away was cancelled. That kind of "out."

I am not bored. I am trying to work f/t while taking care of the kids so don’t have time to get bored.
I admit that I get a little jealous of people who are bored right now. I had a solo vacation planned for two weeks ago that I had to cancel for the pandemic and had been really looking forward to a break—this ... is not that.

I'm business as usual. Although I have a bit more cooking to do. One because DH is now home and I tend to make lunch a few times a week in addition to dinner most nights. Two because I can't run to the store for fancy bread and sandwich bread didn't come on my last order. Three, because I'm more anxious and making a sweet of some type at least 2x a week. I have so many projects that need to get done, in addition to just life stuff but find this... Agree 100%. I was just telling my husband how I don’t even want to do my hobbies right now. I don’t even want to clean and do laundry, even though I still am. It’s a mental thing I’m sure. I don’t think it is even a bored thing as much of an annoyed thing that just frustrates me. is what had been happening to me. Totally a mental thing. I'm anxious for the world. I decided at the beginning of this week I was just going to start doing some of those things I haven't been motivated to do. I decided if I took an hour to do a project, I could just veg for an hour. If I didn't think I could do the project for the length of time it would take, then I had to do at least 15 minutes. It was very motivating and I worked way more than I sat. I'm hoping to continue this trend.

Nope. So far I hate remote learning as a teacher. I work almost nonstop for many hours at the computer each day, and today we had a department meeting where we were told we have have to do more. I worked over 12 hours Monday and Tuesday and got it down to ten on Wednesday and Thursday. I feel like I need a bell schedule to be able to eat and pee! Long days in class and after school are different. There is a bell. I get to move. Now I am sitting in one place for hours doing all this online stuff and it’s only going to get worse. I can’t even see straight anymore!
And I don’t have young kids! I cannot imagine how they are doing.
No boredom here.

We run a home business, so really, not much has changed at all. It's been a bit slower, which has given me some extra time to clean out my craft room. I haven't felt bored, and I'm an introvert/homebody, but do miss going out to eat, seeing friends, etc. But I'm not stir crazy or anything.

and he and I are the ONLY ones who know how to do all of this. Add in all of the checking we are doing on both church members and people in the community and we will NEED some social isolation when this is all done. I have never talked so much in my life! (Introvert here) So bored we are not. Plus with our teens home there is a lot more cooking and cleaning to do. Oh, hobbies - where did you go??? ![;)](//storage.proboards.com/5645536/images/Q_m8lDOvc_3Le3r1GKdf.jpg) There aren't church members who could help with talking to other church members and people in the community?

I’m used to keeping myself busy. Currently working from home, sewing fabric masks, reading a book, cooking too many meals, texting friends, some art...
