Self-isolation isn’t so bad

Self-isolation isn’t so bad

Today, I lost myself playing a video game for a few hours and I forgot how nice it is to forget who you are for a few hours and just bomb the universe for a while.

Honestly, I don’t mind being alone for a while. There is a difference between solitude and loneliness. I enjoy my solitude.

Anyway, people are complaining about how boring things are right now by being confined to home. I don’t see it. I’d rather be home and enjoying the quiet anyway. There’s plenty to do at home when you’re by yourself.

Stuff you could do at home by yourself

  • Something could always use a good cleaning
  • Play a game
  • Read a book
  • Watch a show or a movie
  • Listen to records/music
  • Sit on the porch with a beer and wave at people who go by
  • Go for a walk or a bike ride
  • Walk/play with the dog
  • Call a friend or family member
  • Rearrange the furniture
  • Cook/bake something
  • Sit quietly
  • Have a glass of wine or beer
  • Write a letter to a family member or friend
  • Write a story
  • Do a puzzle
  • Build a website
  • Learn an instrument
  • Learn a language
  • Learn to paint
  • Do a craft
  • Learn a language

The list goes on and on. What do you like to do when you’re alone? Let me know in the comments below.
