With the pandemic still raging, many people are finding themselves spending more time at home than they ever have before. All of this time stuck in one place has many suffering from boredom and wondering what to do when they run out of shows to watch. You might find that you feel better if you spend some time in productive pursuits that can improve your life.

Rearrange Your Home

Rearranging your home is an easy way to breathe fresh life into your living space. If you find you’re getting tired of staying at home, you might try rearranging the furniture in your living room. Changing the layout could make enough of a difference to stave off feelings of going stir crazy. If you have bookshelves you might try different ways of sorting your books. If you’re suddenly finding yourself spending more time in your kitchen and cooking at home, you might try rearranging your kitchen. You might find that the way you currently have things set up isn’t optimal. Identify the items you use most frequently and make sure they are easily accessible.

Deep Clean

It’s pretty well past spring at this point, but just because spring cleaning time has come and gone doesn’t mean you can’t benefit from doing a good, thorough deep clean of your house. Kitchens and bathrooms are obvious rooms that benefit from a deep clean. Your bedroom could likely also benefit from some special attention. Really, any room in your house should be deep cleaned from time to time. If you’re going to do this, pay extra attention to things that aren’t part of your regular cleaning routine. This might mean breaking out less frequently used cleaning supplies in order to get the job done right. For example, using an upholstery brush to vacuum helps prevent damage to your furniture.

Learn a New Skill

More time at home may mean that now is the perfect time to learn a new skill. Now is a great time to brush up on your cooking skills. Cooking at home is often healthier and less expensive than eating out. Or you might try a crafting skill. If you’ve seen pictures of cute little crocheted stuffed animals lately, you might be familiar with amigurumi. There are tons of fun patterns you can try. Of course, as with any craft, there are tricks you can use to get a more successful end result.

It can be easy to feel like there’s nothing to do when you’re stuck at home all the time. Even with the thousands of shows and movies available on various streaming platforms, screen time can start to feel old after a while. Instead, try learning a new skill, deep cleaning your house, or rearranging the furniture. You might find you’re more satisfied with how you’ve spent your time at the end of the day.
