Are you looking for something to do?

Bored?

Can’t seem to think of anything to do?

I know the feeling. You ask yourself what you’re in the mood to do and your mind decides to go blank. Then, you ask your friends what they would like to do, and they’re just as indecisive as you are.

Familiar to the wasted time and energy feeling, I decided to compile a list of 21 ideas to get you out of the house, and even moving productively inside your four walls. So whether you’re an indoor or stray cat, hopefully you can get inspired to turn that TV off and get up from your couch.

Let’s Get Physical

1. Golf driving range! Let it change your life like it did mine.

2. Kickboxing. Box your frustrations out.

3. Research local hiking trails. Take some time to appreciate nature at its best.

4. Bowling. The trophy makes it all worth it.

5. Shooting range. It’s fun, relatively cheap, and one of the ways I like to safely relieve stress.

6. Join an adult league near you. You get to meet people, have fun, burn some calories, and most likely, grab beer/coffee afterwards.

7. Sporting events. Always a good time, especially for us people watchers.

Home Life

8. Write down your bucket list. I have accomplished 5 out of 63… Don’t judge me. I’m working on it.

9. Create a vision board. Think about your future. Your goals and aspirations. What do you want in your life? Take magazine clippings, pictures, quotes, basically anything you gravitate to, and construct your vision board with pure intent on what you want your life to be like. I

10. Make a budget and try to stick to it. Look for ways to reduce debt and unnecessary bills. Cut cable/Netflix subscriptions, go food shopping and cook instead of ordering take-out…

11. Board games/Card games. If you ask me, Hedbanz & Spades are pretty awesome games.

12. Host a dinner party. It’s fun pretending to be classy. It’s even better when you have company over for laughs, food, games, and memories.

13. Clean! I’m sure there’s something that needs to be dusted or organized somewhere in your home.

14. Teach yourself a new talent. Doesn’t matter how old we are; old dogs can learn new tricks, too. I was never aware of my hidden talent in woodworking. According to the Home Depot grump, I’m incapable of being a carpenter, but I brushed his dust off my shoulders, and tried to make my own wooden crate bookcase; and I succeeded.

15. Get yourself a plant. It’s cool to see a youngin grow up. Baby Sophie is a daily reminder that I can actually take care of something.

Around the Neighborhood

16. Check out unusual attractions nearby. It’s funny to see the weirdness out and about. You never know what you can encounter until you start to explore.

17. Thrift shopping. Pop some tags and walk out feeling like a millionaire with all your bags. For $20.38, you can get all of this –

18. Get in touch with the outside world. Take a nice walk around the neighborhood with someone.





19. Visit a museum. Sometimes a little education and culture goes a long way.

20. Support local Farmer’s Markets! From pies to fruit to brownies, buy fresh products that not only benefit the farmers, but your health as well.

21. Flea Market. Another wonderful place to find things for cheap. Plus, funnel cake.

Hope this helped clear the blurred mind lines! With or without money, it doesn’t matter what activity you’re doing as long as you are simply living.

So go on – find your adventure.
