How to keep occupied during lockdown.

Lots of gardening, decorating and knitting here! I think you have to find the thing that works for you, though. I'm quite happy with solitary days.

My friend volunteers, as she really needs the interaction with others and company it provides.

We both agree that it's satisfying to have made a difference, some progress, however small, each day.

I have started on my family history. I took a free University course first to make sure I knew what I was doing and it has given me such joy with all the discoveries. I have also made friends with people whose trees overlap. I have offered to drive one American lady around Glasgow when she manages to get here to visit the addresses our mutual ancestor lived at.
Warning - it’s addictive. ?

No special hobby just my usual walks. I would hate it if I was prevented to even do this. Then usual TV, internet, books. As you can see I don’t do much different lockdown or not. Thank goodness I enjoy walking as I’m no crafter!

I have been decorating and hopefully soon finished so I can start on the gardening. Also have been having a good clear out which reminds me I have a boot full of stuff to take to the tip
I am also planning on getting more exercise to rid me of the lockdown pounds

Craft has helped me , I can loose myself when doing it.
Getting outside also helps if you can. Even a short walk can help. I’m not a great walker but find it helps if I set myself a goal. Maybe counting how many of a certain thing I can see on my way.

I have got a bit tired of cross stitch and jigsaw puzzles. After seeing a Gransnetter's example of diamond art I did some keyrings to try. I found the technique easy and relaxing so have now ordered some greetings card kits. They would be suitable for adult or child users. Have a look on Youtube for examples and hints.
