I'm in an apartment as well and was also thinking about an indoor garden, probably just some herbs to start. Are you doing anything with artificial light or is your apartment layout good for direct sunlight (mine is not)?

I'm trying to study for my I.T certification but i get lazy

I decided to read some sales books and how to negotiate better.

My condo finally posted a sign on the tiny fitness center that it is closed due to CDC recommendations. I had been using it sparingly since the gyms are closed...

HOWEVER, my key code still works. So I just went in today, took all the equipment I needed and moved it into my apt. Worked out then put it all back.

Studying law to abolish my child support contract I never signed. Going to take on the title IV crime family. Every lawyer I’ve had said good luck and I already got it reduced on my own. Fuck these crooks.

I'm normally a workaholic and even though my house is nice, working from home has made me aware of alot of issues that I could easily overlook before. I don't know if its self improvement per se, but I'm working to improve the feng shui of my home and fix design issues. I've replaced faded curtains in my living room, dining room, and guest bedroom. I'm remodeling my master bath completely, replacing the linoleum floor with ceramic wood style tile, and installing wall paper and a floating vanity. I also have a cast iron tub and sink to put in there. I had a new cushion made for a nice rattan ottoman I have that the cushion is just kind of dirty and stained but the foam insert is so old it's not worth cleaning. I'm planning to have another matching cushion made for my coffee table so it can be converted into a bench for family get togethers. I'm considering having a matching valence made too really bring the room together. My great grandmother left me a huge mid century hanging capiz lamp that's been stored for years because it needed such extensive cleaning. I finally finished that yesterday.

For a while I've hated the "flow" of my bedroom but I couldn't figure out how to fix it. I finally had a breakthrough this week so this weekend I'll be rearranging the furniture and installing built in shelves for my movie collection.

Anyway, it's not nearly as productive as learning a new skill but last year I marie kondo'd the whole place so it feels good to be improving all my new space. I'm looking forward to going back to work and coming home every day to an immaculately designed home. My dad is also really into home design and decor (weirdly my mom never was) and he said after this is all over he is coming for a visit so I'm also looking forward to showing him all the improvements. The great thing about dads as opposed to friends is that you can show off and know they will be genuinely happy and proud of you.

Mostly staying at home. My grandfather is bedridden now and needs me around. That and my gym is closed for now.

AoiNagisaSan · 2020-04-09T18:44:04+00:00

Started doing yoga - good shit. Also more time to do things on my video game.

KUL-DANK · 2020-04-09T19:28:33+00:00

working out, studying the bible, studying the genders, studying how the world works, investing as much money as i can in crypto currency in order to get that "f.k you money" in the future, so i can drop out of this sick society and become a simple farmer

Moved my music studio into my mothers sewing room at their farm house and set up a gym in the shed, recovered my late brothers gaming computer and threw on Age Of Empires 1 and 2

So I am either making beats, records and music, working out and getting jacked, or killing some goddamn Mongolians with Trojan Horses filled with Sweet n Sour Pork

kaydawg23 · 2020-04-10T01:18:04+00:00

So when I'm not working or doing some light reading on our sub I've acquired some books being The Art of War by Sung Tzu, Medidations by Marcus Aurelius, On Truth and Lies in a Nonmoral sense by Friedrich Nietzsche.

I've started with The Art of War and so far enjoying it, it's magnificent sort of knowledge.

Beyond this want to get back into writing poetry and make further strides into a poetry novel filled with self written pieces.

Want to explore possibility of learning a new language or two as well so if anyone can recommend some actually credible apps, avenues available online for learning German and Italian thank you in advance

5km run and 20 minutes body weight exercise each day so far.

maximusnaya · 2020-04-10T03:56:07+00:00

Studying for hours a day. Few weights. No cardio at all. Bad habits creeping in. Alcohol everyday. I better get myself together. Feeling invincible anyway ;)

-NotaBene · 2020-04-10T07:14:56+00:00

Studying informal logic & Bible, electronics projects including my first AC project, indoor speed archery (can shoot 3 arrows in 1.6 seconds), playing bass and keyboards and guitar, brewing wine, making pasta from scratch, some MTG games. And of course lots of gaming.

2020-04-10T08:04:33+00:00

fortunate enough to be able to work from home and pay bills and debt.

ReNeitherFleshNoBone · 2020-04-11T05:34:42+00:00

Working, reading through Letters from a stoic: Volume 2 Seneca, and moving some cash "off shore"
