Trying to keep busy

[nikkidolls]

I personally have problems getting motivated. I am watching too much rubbish on the tele, eating too many crisps and ice cream. I am about to run out of goodies. Hopefully my next Sainsburys delivery will have some of the treats I ask for.

I am very lucky that I have a tiny patio and some pots so once my plants are delivered I can garden.

I also try to spend time sewing. I fix then dress antique dolls. They are rather taking over my living room, as people are only looking for bargains at the moment and I need to sell them and cover my costs at least, so I can buy the next one.

All in all I feel OK will be happier once they restart my Afatinib but until then I just keep chugging on.

I have a very talkative dog and cat that keep me company.

sounds as if you like being creative so how about taking up a new hobby? calligraphy? blog writing? keeping a covid 19 journal? sewing face masks for volunteers taking shopping to people? if you're online there are also colouring/painting apps to do onscreen or order an adult colouring book online and while away the hours with mindfulness colouring.... whatever you enjoy will pass the hours quicker. a friend of mine said she'd ordered and watched many films she'd seen in Poland as a young girl but hadn't understood them. She's lived in UK for over 30 years and found this quite satisfying....
