Humans Vs Covid19 – Ideas to help you to STAY AT HOME PLEASE!
By now, we’re hopefully starting to get the message about what staying at home means for our fellow humans.However, no one is doubting that sitting on our hands can be difficult, despite so many aspects of our lives now being geared towards making most tasks effortless and able to be completed from our sofas.
I thought it would be worthwhile to pull together a bunch of different things that you could do in order to find this time more enriching.But remember, there’s nothing wrong with just being and you don’t have to be busy all of the time.I have picked a few of the ideas up from other posts – thanks to those users for their ideas!
