As far as getting through the day my only comment is there's just not enough hours to do all the things I'd like to do.

This!!

At the moment, unfortunately, I don't do much other than watch my dog get old and as I have no one else to really help me, it's a struggle, ESPECIALLY mentally, to get through the day.


I don't play games (online), my 2 other friends do, quite a bit actually and they're not exactly social - I'd say they're a lot less social than I am.
It's like pulling teeth to get them to go out to do anything, unless it's a movie or whatever (but I like them, they're genuine good guys).

Another friend works full time, especially at his new job and he lost his dog 2 months ago and doesn't do much other than work and his outdoor sporting hobby.


I'm not complaining, because I need to stay with my dog as she was great company for me through the years, but, what do you guys do during the day to kill time?

I can't read, it bores me to death and my mind wanders way too fast.
I think that's my anxiety or depression kicking in, who knows. No interest for me to read, wish I could though.

So what cures your boredom?


So,
I play PC games. There are many outstanding games that you will not stand up from your sit for days.
I listen to musics. I'm a huge fan of One Direction. Singing their songs and watching their photos and fanboying never put me in a mood of boredom
I watch TV shows. Family Guy, Britains got Talen, X-factor
I daydream of how wonderful my life could be. I dream of my perfect world and fall asleep :p
 
I watch tv-series. I read sometimes. I talk to my long distance boyfriend a lot. Sometimes I study. I know people I can hang out with sometimes so I try to do that once in a while. Mostly though, I watch tv-series. If I don't do that I just lie on my bed and think. I have my siblings at home all the time without parents so I sometimes try to do something with them (they're always on their iPads and it's awful). I'll take them to the grocery store and buy ingredients to bake together and then we watch a film whilst eating.
I try to plan ahead and make checklist of things I want to do and can do. New things. Once in a while, I'll do one of those things for variation of my daily tv-series-watching life and daydreaming!
 
If I feel like nothing, I'd just keep myself busy with house chores.. endless house chores.
 
Slow drives on the highway are actually pretty good.
Forced to concentrate on the road, enjoy the scenery, although, then I see all the cars (mine included) polluting the beautiful countryside.

We really need to go all out on electric cars don't we? (going off on tangent, sorry, lol)
 
I try to figure out why I'm stuck and how to get out of my rut. And if there's something to clean or organize, I do that. Cleaning or organizing things helps the most when I am waiting for something and there's nothing else i can do but wait, at least I can make things neat. Losing things is a pet peeve of mine, so I have become a fairly well organized person.
 
Music by 90 percent. 2 for studying, 5 for girlfriend, 2 for myself and the rest for everyone else
 
How I get through the day. I work part time, cook, shop, clean, all the routine boring stuff, read lots of books, garden, plant fruit and vegetables, take care of my cats, they get groomed at lot :) I play on nintendo DS, make stained glass panels, go to yoga and pilates classes, watch movies on youtube. When I'm stuck for things to do, I make a lists of things to do or try out for another day. Basically just plodding on really
 
I get up in the morning and go to work. While there, I try and interact with people as much as I reasonably can, hoping that it might eventually lead to non-work-related conversation. Sometimes it does, but it never seems to extend to outside of work hours. Yet, I keep trying. After work, I go home and have dinner. I either eat at home by myself or go out and dine alone at a restaurant. The rest of the evening is generally spent hanging out with my two cats, watching TV, listening to music or reading. Then I go to bed and the whole things repeats itself the next day.
 
Never a dull moment within my four wall. Having a guitar and piano keeps me very busy.

I do wish I could play an instument, this dog is too old for such new tricks! :p
 
Typically, on my days off, I try to catch up on my sleep... Watch some tv then out to a decent restaurant that isn't too expensive, preferably one with the outside seatings... Then I usually sit there & watch people... That amuses me... Not that people amuse me but the idea of so many people going on about their busy lives & imagining what they could possibly be running to & from... Other times, I just go play poker tournament for a while... If I get knocked out early, I try to get some food comped & eat... Again, I try to sit there & watch all those people running in & out of casino... I don't really crave the interactions with people, I just like watching them & paly out few scenarios in my own head, as weird as that might sound... Other times, I just sit at home, playing video games or listening to music, be on line, see what's going on with the world...
