What To Do in Quarantine When You're Sick of Netflix

So, it's been a solid 3 months of quarantine and I've done just about everything you can think of. I've binged shows like "You", "All American" and "Outer Banks". I've gone on one too many walks. I've read through all of my books. I've laid out so much that I don't think it's possible for me to get any more tan.

So, now what?

1. Make new playlists. Not only will this allow you to discover some new favorite songs, but it will also get you excited to go for your next run, drive with the windows down, or lay in bed on a rainy day.

2. Crafting. For me, this means tie dyeing. Buy a cheap sweatshirt from Amazon, order some dye or bleach from a craft store and get to it. This way, you can rock a new homemade wardrobe once quarantine is over. But crafting can also mean painting, scrapbooking, or making DIY room decor.

3. Stay productive. What does being productive mean to you? For me it means doing workout videos on YouTube, job searching on LinkedIn or Indeed and meal prepping. This gives me some sort of routine, which makes me not feel like a total couch potato.

4. De-clutter. Now's the time to go through your closet and sell all of your old stuff on Poshmark. Make some cash. Or be a good person and donate it.

5. Zoom Happy Hours. For me, the worst part about quarantine has been the lack of socialization. So schedule plenty of FaceTimes and Zoom calls with your friends and family to get some human interaction. And grab a drink while you're at it.

6. Plan fun activities. Future vacations, beach days, day trips, whatever it may be. Have something to look forward to. It'll make quarantine go by a lot faster.

Most importantly, stay positive. It will be over soon.
