20 Things To Do When You Are Bored



    As children we all have times of boredom.  Us kids all learned quickly though to never tell Mom that we were bored...Unless we wanted a list of chores!  ;)  But I've had quite a few friends respond to texts of mine with; "Nothing much.  Just bored."  Which, being the person I am, thus brings on a list of boredom busters.  That list I am now sharing with you.  Enjoy.


1}  Read a book you never have before

2}  Learn Origami

3}  Start a Journal (And if you need a list of idea for this, look HERE)

4}  Pick one topic and learn everything you can about it (like a war, a person or period of history, or a trade, like blacksmithing)

5}  Buy a plain white tee-shirt and decorate it

6}  Start a blog // work on your blog

7}  Go outside and study plants

8}  Learn to count to 10 in 10 different languages

9}  Write a letter to someone (to really send or not)

10}  Create a survey for siblings/friends, guess their answers, then see how close you really were when they complete it

11}  Bake something out of a cookbook that you haven't baked anything out of yet

12}  Clean something

13}  Make something special for someone

14}  Leave notes around the house for your family

15}  Go through a junk drawer

16}  Wash all the windows in your house

17}  Call someone you haven't talked to in a while

18}  Take a walk

19}  Play a board or card game

20}  Think of something you haven't done since a child; like climbing trees or finger painting; and re-discover your inner kid.

    2. Oh great! ;) I didn't think of it that way actually. :D I am not a night owl..I prefer sleeping or reading.

      Oh.. I haven't been sick once! I had this thing when I was sick (cold like) for one day and then I had it again this month. I don't know why..lol But, I haven't been sick at all. I'm sorry that you have been! Thanks for your prayers Jess...Elizabeth is doing better. She is talking more now my mom said..so that is good. She is going to stay tonight at the hospital so my dad is going to see them right now. Talk with you later! :)
