I'm supposed to stay off my feet for 3 weeks (medical reasons) and I'm kinda stuck in my humble abode unless I want to go out with a walker which is hard cuz I keep tripping on it on the sidewalk! It's just not worth leaving by myself....What could I do all day aside from sitting at this computer?!?!? I was thinking about making cookies....the ones with all the ingred's in a pouch and all you do is add butter and an egg.....I'm just not up to doing much at all (depressed about this whole medical crap) so any suggestions would be greatly appreciated....I don't like to read, don't know how to knit, crochet, etc...no real hobbies....I do like listening to music though, so I sit here at the computer and crank the speakers but i can't just sit here all day either.....suggestions? Legit ones please.....Thanks!

Invite friends over, call someone and have a talk, make a list of what you want/need to do for the holidays or when you get back on your feet, maybe look up and print some recipes online and copy them into your recipe box, do your nails, watch a great funny movie(it'll help with the sadness), order some take out and have it delivered, have a glass of wine. Hope this helped, (reading is great fun though, it completely takes me away) Great Luck and Get better soon:)!!

Get off the computer, you'll go crazy doing that! Call up some friends and talk about how you are feeling. How about a puzzle? I know it sounds dorky but it's something different. I was going to recommend reading but you don't like it. Baking cookies is OK but in 25 minutes, your done (then what?). Do you like movies? Have someone rent some or get on Netflix (you'll get them in 2 days).

You could learn how to draw. You just need some paper and a pencil. I'm starting a blog on drawing lessons if you want to check it out. Cooking and learning another language are also things you could do. Just think about the things you're interested in.
I hope you get better soon! Good luck.

No better time than now to learn a craft. They have all sorts of how to books. Get language tapes and learn a foreign language. Watch some movies you always wanted to see. Put together a huge puzzle.

oh enjoy it..i say that because i wish i could do nothing for 3 weeks...although i will probably be bored too..
rent some movies or get a season of your favorite TV show on DVD and watch them...that will keep you occupied for a while..try some books, crosswords, buy a video game those keep me occupied for hours!

I was just thinking.......dont know what holidays you celebrate but you could think about crafty kinds of kits.They do come with instructions you know.And you could make gifts for the holidays from them.LIKE KNITTING! or making candles.
