    Default Corona Virus Cabin Fever - How are you keeping yourself and family occupied?

    Im working from home(condo) and im getting cabin fever already. No family nearby (I guess that could be a blessing in some ways).
    Im tempted to buy a gaming PC or get a Xbox (though the new one is coming November).

    So how are you all keeping yourselves and your family entertained during these dark times..? Netflix, Disney, cooking, hobbies, gaming, building toilet paper forts etc.

    We're still working. If that changes I will utilize a lot of drugs?

    Don't have any video games. For now read and play with the kids. Walk around the block when it's nice. Sometimes moves and board games. Home workouts.

    Combination of work and looking after the kids. Working from office late today because behind on deadlines.

    Haven't had much time to pass just yet. Think that will change on the weekend. So, games with kids and simracing.

    Me, wife and kids 15 and 17 are home. Me and wife just working from home side by side in our den/office and I just get up every hour so to stretch and make food when kids are hungry. Kids are doing their own thing, homework, read, games, social media, whatever.... I'm not paying too much attention to them unless they ask for something. We have lots of board games, puzzles and video games and I have a gym set up downstairs with treadmill and rower I take for a spin when I feel tired. Not feeling cabin fever yet, maybe at the end of the week.....

    This is pretty much it for me. Working all day with short kid breaks. My wife works out at home per usual, I'm not about to start that anytime soon though.

    Business as usual. I previously worked from home a few days a month so already had a decent routine. Saving the commute, time with the kid instead for the hour or so difference.

    3rd day wfh. Still wearing real pants. Not sure how much longer that'll last.

    I am 100% fine to work from home, but having the kids and wife home is really messing with my vibe.

    I’m working more to try and get shit across the border in case it closes. Other than that I wash my hands slightly more.

    Working from home starting tomorrow. Girlfriend has been in since friday. Our team is going to use discord to coordinate. I still have to do site visits when required, but a lot of the break-fixes we can do from home will be preferred.

    Instead of toilet paper, I’ve been hoarding renovation supplies to finish my basement and for projects in the garage. 2 months isolation may be long enough to finish my list.

    Many people starting to realize this and hence divorce rates higher.

    Also pool boy coming over at 11 doesn't help.
    Wife gets annoyed at me and pool boy.

    Starts asking why you need a pool boy when there's no pool?
