Thread: What should I do?

  1. #1

    What should I do?

    I am usually by myself all freakin' day Mon through Fri. It drives me completely bat s*** insane on top of the fact that there is NOTHING to do here. I can't bring myself to do the things I enjoy. I have the inspiration, the time, but my willingness just falls short. I can't clean, even though I need to, because for some reason I like to have somebody here when I am cleaning. I just don't like to do it while I'm alone. SO. What to do? The net is dial up so I can't entertain myself that way (not at least until it's too late in the day to make a difference.). Oh... my... freaking.... bologna! I am seriously about to rip my hair out. O_O

    For one, I am looking for a job. I just haven't been accepted any where despite all the things that I have done.

    Two, A job requires transportation and my husband and I only have one car. Also, I need to get a license.

  4. I feel the lonlyiest after my best friend logs off,, and i go completly insane. i tried keeping my mind off things by doing Yahoo/Google searches for people/things i like that i like.. but the only works for a little while before you start seeing the samethings over and over again.

    then i found this page that has on line stories. and was surpised at how much that i missed reading.

    but anywhere here ya be

    I think you are looking for volunteer work too, you said?

    Helping others and animals can be so fulfilling! Stuffing envelopes, walking dogs(for a neighbour, so nice and close), reading for seniors, helping a wildlife foundation.

    I hope you find something soon!

    One of the greatest gifts I was given by my parents is the ability to entertain myself. When I was bored, they told me to think of 50 things I could do. Even if no one is around. I am so thankful for that.

    Turn up the music and rock out and clean the house. You'll feel better afterwards. Ask a neighbor if you can walk their dog. Yes, it's nice to have other people around, but if you practice being more self-sufficient, you'll have more confidence. Why can't you bring yourself to do the things you enjoy?

    You are bored? LOLOL.

    I cannot recall the last time I was 'bored'. Ah...I seem to remember there being a slightly good feeling associated with it......

    Yup - the radio or TV can keep you company while you clean! Then make yourself a list of everything you need to get done - that'll take some time. Then decide which of these things you will do what days. Then get yourself a good book, and read for a while.
