What do you waste your time doing?

Worrying about things I can’t do anything about.

I enjoy my first cup of coffee doing Wordle, Quordle, Octordle and Sedocordle.
Gets the old grey matter working.

Stroking my dog, but it isn't a waste of time because it keeps my blood pressure in check!

GN, I had some time out a few months ago and quickly lost the addiction. Now only browsing on my breaks but quick to be sucked in as before. Otherwise not really, time is too precious to waste on nothing

I not only do Popmaster on the Ken Bruce radio programme, but I also have a special pen and paper to record my results and keep a running tab. How sad is that? I wouldn't dare go on it as although I could have a conversation about knitting I wouldn't do very well on the quiz.

Reading GNet
Browsing Pinterest
Surfing the web for craft materials and spending more than I should!
Playing Patience when the TV is boring.

For those of you who play some form of Codeword can you please recommend a good free app for this please ? I’ve noticed a few criticisms on the app I looked at.

The time you enjoy wasting
Is not wasted time.

- Bertrand Russell.

Day dreaming, solitaire especially spider solitaire on my phone, reading up stuff that has intrigued me on Google and then Wikipedia and then out to the wider, often academic, ‘net.

Wordle and crosswords are not time wasting; it's part of my defence against onset of dementia, though it may be a losing battle. Who knows!

I don't waste my time!

I use it on the people and things I want to.

If I am asked to do things I really rather would not, I decline politely.

One of the benefits of retirement and of being 70 is surely that now our time is our own.

Looking through Facebook- mostly at Animal Rescues.

Otis. Where do you find your competitions? Entering them, and writing slogans, used to be my favourite pastimes, and I often won prizes.
Since the internet came along there mainly seems to be Prize Draws, which must get huge numbers of entries. No longer any competition leaflets in supermarkets.

I'm an routine time waster now, and becoming worse as I age. I sit reading, surfing the net, knitting, and thinking that I really must vacuum the bedrooms/ mop the kitchen floor/go for a healthy walk etc. I'm a champion procrastinator!

I fear I am not into computer games and like to be outside if poss either gardening. going for a walk as well as the usual shopping. I do occasionally go to the gym.

Words with Friends, Ruzzle, Hay Day. But I am socialising on them too!

This twaddle!
Entering competitions
Wordle
Words with Triends

I have a lot of time to waste since covid struck me down!

Oh If only I knew!

GN, FB, TikTok. My sister lives at the opposite end of the country to me so we chat on WhatsApp, usually about nothing in particular and usually when we should both be doing something else.

Codeword, crossword books and ebay

Worrying about family things that I can't do anything about.

Hanging out my washing in order of size so it looks neat on the line how sad is that

Thinking about what I should be doing, deciding what should be done first and then often it's too late to start anything much.

Trying to improve my piano playing. If they cut off my gas and electricity, I’m going to chop it up!

You can’t find them NannyMags, GNHQ delete them.

How do I find these Fantasy Threads?
