Welcome to the Snow Much Fun Giveaway Hop, hosted by Mama the Fox!
This is always a weird hop for me. Snow can be much fun, as long as one is inside watching it fall instead of outside trying to deal with it. But snow here in Atlanta is such a rare event that it is pretty much ALWAYS fun.
Very much on my other hand, at the moment we are all supposed to be staying in and watching whatever fall. That “whatever” being COVID-19.
And even as someone who normally works from home and doesn’t go out a whole lot, it is VERY different to be in the house because I have to be as opposed to because I want to be. That it’s expected to be a “gloomy Gus” of a week here weatherwise does not exactly help. If we’d wanted to live someplace where the weather is gray and gloomy, we’d have stayed in either Anchorage or Seattle. But the weather certainly fits the week and the mood.
But this does make for a GREAT time to stay in and READ. So if you’re looking to get a new book or two (or two dozen!) to tide you over, winning either the Amazon Gift Card or the Book should be a bit of help in that goal!
For more fabulous prizes, be sure to visit the other stops on this hop!

Everyone keep safe and wishing you the best
Playing games and watching movies
I have fruit on hand and make sure that people have some down time also try to make sure that my family is hydrated.
We make sure to keep the house clean, wash our hands and we do a lot of reading.
I like to read.
Read and drink tea.
I’m used to being on my own so the self-isolation part doesn’t bother me. As long as I have books and my garden, I’ll never be bored!
For me, it’s to make sure I keep the house clean and don’t let everything kind of get out of control…
We keep busy with movies and games.
I read but when the kids were little it was movies and games.
A lot of healty food, wash of hands, books and movies
We live in the country, so we can go outdoors and take a walk to get some fresh air.
Make sure to get up and move and stay hydrated.
Start up the treadmill and binge some netflix!
Take extra care to get in the vitamins I need and catch up on some reading.
Play Kinect games.
Puzzles, healthy meal times, walking our dogs for exercise
I am pretty much a loner anyway so staying home doesn’t really bother me. Just because you’re stocking up doesn’t mean you have to live on nonperishable foods. That’s going to get tiresome. Fill your freezer with fresh, flavorful soups.
Learn a new skill, learn cooking or clean house.
Probably making a schedule. Thanks for the giveaway. 🙂
Keeping busy is easy around here. Our house is a mess. Keeping healthy is just a matter of not going out around people who are sick with that Coronavirus thing.
I keep busy by organizing and cleaning my home and doing as much online as possible.
Working out on the ellipticals.
Don’t panic. I have books, puzzle books and jigsaw puzzles to keep me busy. We have enough food and other supplies on hand that we don’t have to go to the store.
Well, washing the floors and scrubbing the window sills is always a good activity!
Go for a run on the treadmill!
good time to do some spring cleaning gets your whole house clean
it is good to read to keep your mind occupied
We’ve been organizing the house, video chatting with friends and spending time in the backyard to get fresh air.
Meditate, read, cook and watch movies.
To make sure you have everything in stock: first aid kits, food, water, toiletries, and other important items, just in case it gets too bad.
Brainstorm a list of various different things you can do indoors – both work as well as entertainment. Check off items as they are done so you are not in front of the television or computer all day long. Vary what you do to keep busy, productive, and entertained.
watching tv and movies!
When not at the office (which I’m still required to do for now), I’m used to staying indoors for health reasons so my routine is largely the same as usual. Just trying to stay calm, be sensible, take precautions, and not get caught up in some of the OTT pandemic pandemonium.
We are playing lots of games. Thank you
Doing push ups, and jumping jacks after working on the yard. All while watching my favorite anime, and entering giveaways like these.
I do yoga. And read a lot! 🙂
I take vitamin D and C & try to at least get outside in my yard for a bit.
Do exercise videos, play board games, read.
Make a schedule and try to make it fun or seem like a game for little ones.
I am revisiting some old hobbies/interests that I haven’t done in a long time. For example, I’ve started to paint again, and play the the cello! It feels really good. 🙂
Do yoga and some sit ups each morning and cook healthy food! Try out new recipes with all this new free time.
We play board games and do crafts.
I like to read & snack on cashews.

I exercise and take vitamins.
Make a list each day of what you want to get done and stick to it. You will feel better if you are productive and have a routine.
Do exercises. Spend time with family whom you live with. Play games. Paint each others nails. Cook things together.

As tempting as it is, don’t stay in bed too long…It just makes it easier to sleep the day away and do nothing.

Remain positive, but living in the country can go out.
I’m trying to avoid the TV as much as possible, so I don’t just veg on the couch. I keep myself busy with stuff I’ve been putting off around the house, plus reading and enjoying music the old fashioned way (on vinyl — that way I have to keep getting up to change the record).

We are not stuck indoors. We go about everyday life as usual.
It’s definitely weird to be stuck at home – as opposed to just wanting to be home. I’m trying to get outside if the weather is nice. I’m trying to focus on things I enjoy like funny shows/movies and a good book.
