List of Things to do During Coronavirus Self Quarantine

Check out this list of things to do during coronavirus self quarantine!

The coronavirus has changed the world.  Never before in my lifetime has the whole world experienced something like this.  Most of us are told to stay home so that we won’t be infected with the coronavirus and/or we won’t infect others.  Most of us have never had the opportunity to be home for an extended period of time.

I have been home since March 17th, 2020.  My employer has closed the office for the most part.  Since other countries were attacked with this virus before us, we know we are likely going to be home for a while.  Some estimate it will be about 4 weeks, but I believe many of us believe the reality is more like 8-10 weeks.

I know there have been times when I have wished that I could take about a month or two off from work, but this is not exactly the way I would have planned spending it.  We are pretty much home-bound.  Even though restaurants are open for to-go orders, we currently are cooking at home.  That is not what I would plan to do if I was on vacation.  Ugh!

So, what are we going to do with ourselves during this time?  Since my husband is almost 65 and he is at high risk, we are both not taking any chances right now.  I wish we could go out and help others, but that is not wise for us to do right now.

So, here is a list of things that I have thought about.  Let me know what you are planning to do in the comments below.

  • Spending time with God everyday!  Ask God what He wants me to do each day.  Pray for our country and healing.  My step-daughter is pregnant with twins.  She found out this week that one of them has one club foot and the other has both feet are club feet–we are believing for healing for the twins!!
  • Clean the house–I really don’t like to clean the house, but this is a good time to do it.  It is time to de-clutter.
  • Learn to cook new dishes
  • Write a book–if any of you have had some ideas of books that you wanted to write, this is the time to do it!
  • Start your own website/blog
  • Read the pile of books that you have been wanting to read or order some new ones from Amazon.com
  • Write letters to your friends and family
  • Call your friends and family to check on them
  • Work on your music playlist–My husband and I had not ever created our playlist on Amazon–we finally had time to begin our playlists this  week
  • If you are a grandparent  missing your grandchildren, yesterday I recorded  myself  reading a book to my grandchildren and I sent it to them via Facebook Messenger 🙂
  • Put together the puzzles that you have been waiting for a chance to put together
  • Learn something new!  With Google and YouTube, you can learn how to do so many things while you are quarantined
  • If you have been waiting for the time to write a song, now is the time
