Do The Days Seem Long To You..........

CrazyKittyLvr2 — Sat, 25 Apr 2020 22:45:04 GMT

or is it just me. The last 2 weeks especially feel like they have lasted forever. I look at the clock thinking it must be 4:00pm and it's only 2.

Either I am really bored or I've inhaled too many Lysol fumes, I am watching a Fast n Furious movie. lol I hate to say it, Vin Diesel is a terrible actor.

I have a ton of James Patterson books, including the Women's Murder Club series. Tomorrow I'll start marathon reading.

There is only so much cooking, cleaning and purging one can do. Heck, even the cats are tired of me wanting to play with them. The weather is too miserable for badly needed yard work.

Do you think the days drag by?

It's like the movie Groundhog Day. Same routine everyday.

Just the opposite for me.

Seems like it is. I think in my case not having church and dining out on Sunday makes the week drag out more. I miss dressing up, meeting and socializing on a normal Sunday. My regluar routine is not any different.

Why wait for tomorrow to start marathon reading? No time like now! 😄

That makes the days go fast for me. Actually I'm still working full-time at home so that goes pretty fast. I feel for folks who don't have a job working from home to fill some of those hours and provide income. Take care!!

While working from home, the days fly by.

@CrazyKittyLvr2 I totally agree with you. Groundhog day it is and I'm still working!

Stay safe!

@CrazyKittyLvr2

No, the days fly by for me. I’m blessed to be working full time from home and very, very busy. I don’t have extra time on my hands and need every minute of my weekend to rest and recharge. Not a chance of getting bored.

I blink and the day is over................so much repair and stuff to do in the spring. Hoed out old plants in raised garden today - filled some holes in the lawn - got involved with neighbors out doing things and it turned in to a gab-fest. Didn't get to 'second base' today.

The days themselves go by fast but the last 6 weeks feel like it's been 6 months.

YES! I must admit to being a complete pessimist by nature, but the days seem never ending. Our dog awakens us every single day by 6 a.m., which makes matters even worse. I can cope until around 2 p.m., but from then on it's downhill all the way. I try to stay productive, but not doing too well!

No, actually to my surprise the days go by pretty quickly. Have gotten into a "routine." Don't know how it will be when we finally free of this "lock down."

For me, it's not so much that the days drag, it's just the repetition of doing the same thing over and over. I'm sick of cleaning and cooking. I want to have my kids over for dinner, I want to get together with friends. I need a pedicure, and a cut and color. I want to have lunch with my sister. Okay, I'm done whining. Sometimes you just have to say it out loud. LOL I'm thankful we're all healthy.

i HAVE NO IDEA THE DAY OR TIME. I JUST SEEM TO WAKE UP... EAT... THREE TIMES AND GO BACK TO BED. I do watch reruns of Psych. I am bored to death. I also had a bad fall backwards. So I am bored, and hurt. Getting better... great physical therapist up the street in a small office.

I live on the border of three states. If one opens first I am going. NO stopping me. Heck wearing a mask they will never know who I am. LOL

Yes ! Can't see my 4 yo grandson (MR. Busy) because of stay at home but I can see him on Face Time so that helps. His mom is working from home now. I don't have much to do as far as cleaning out closets because I sold my home last year and moved to an apartment, downsized a lot so no need to clean out closets. Haven't driven my car in about 3 weeks, no need to go to the store, very well stocked. I'm not a book reader, I watch TV alot and go out on the patio. No need to shop for clothes, nowhere to go and my closets are already filled to the max. I do have a great guy to spend time with so that's a great thing !

Gosh , no.The days and weeks and months fly by.

I stay constantly busy and am never bored.

And, hopefully never boring 😏

No, but I like long days.

My routine is the same as always with the exception that I am not driving my friends to their doctor appointments and I am missing the kids at school a few times a week.

If the weather was cooperative, I would think it was summer vacation. I can't wait for the governor to lift some restrictions. I really would like to be out on the lake with my DH on our boat just floating the day away.
