Non-Tech Hobby Suggestions

You should consider getting a hobby.

I'd probably camp overnight a lot.Catching up on all the books I havbe left behind.I always wanted to pick up woodworking and I'd like to learn how to sew with a sewing machine. Practical stuff keeps me engaged.Drinking beers? :)

I used to exercise 1-2 hours a day, everyday (I was in great shape), that's gone completely. I'd love to go hiking regularly, that rarely occurs now. I used to spend a decent amount of time doing amature photography, I don't anymore. There's a significant amount of home improvement I'm perfectly capable of doing, in fact, even enjoy aspects of, yet I have to pay others to do it from lack of time. I love gardening but that's completely impossible, I occasionally trim

Going to the gym, working on my hobby projects, cuddling with my cats, being in nature, learning something new.
