I'm after some ideas to deal with boredom - slowly getting well enough to actually be bored which is a good start. I have pretty much been bed bound since last friday only leaving the house for dr's & hospital apts and due to the steriods & painkillers I am on, can't sleep and haven't for rather a long time. Doing anything right now (specifically breathing is a major issue) and studying to catch up on my Spanish is not an option - I just don't have the concentration or strength. Even getting to the kitchen for a hot drink is taking all my strength.
Reading is only an option in small doses - I can't easily focus on a computer screen & have pretty much run out of books to read (physical paper is easier to read for some odd reason, but only if the book is old (brown paper - don't ask). I don't have much attention span, so it needs to be easier (I have previously read all of Terry Pratchet Discworld, Ian M Banks, like sci-fi stuff, recently finished reading Janapar & A Hiding Place, not into the 'classics' etc...) currently trying to read The Ipcress Files, but finding it hard going. I also don't have any books anymore, didn't keep them when we sold everything, and have not yet replaced anything.
Editing my photos etc, working on my photo website is not an option, I don't have the concentration, the eyesight or the patience right now.
I have one or two games websites which keep me going (www.by-art.com being my favourite).
I have even resorted to installing a Sudoku game on my iPhone but the iPhone is that old it can not take much, so anything else is out - needs to be iOS 4.2 compatible which not much is anymore.
Due to where we live, watching TV online is not easy, broadband is not fast enough and not capable of being faster, but I can download & watch offline.
Family options are out, my step-father is still on IV antibiotics and we can't risk his health - he is finally out of hospital and I don't wish to be responsible for him ending up back there more than the once a day he currently is for his IV AB's.
So I am needing ideas please, anything considered. I'm probably in bed for a while longer yet...
thanks in advance.
