My husband often works late, so I normally have alot of free time in the evenings. I get bored VERY easily. I am looking for something that I can do to pass the time other than exercise, TV, or Y!A…
Any suggestions?

Oh man do I feel your pain, I’m home by 3-4, my boyfriend not until at least 6:30 and sometimes 9 or 10, and he’s away on business lots. I like to exercise when I’m bored but I know you didn’t want that kind of suggestion…hmm…
Join some sort of class or club, whether it’s art classes or fitness (sorry I know you said not exercise), something that interests you, so you can get out of the house. To meet new people and increase your social life
Find some sort of hobby, like knitting or crafting. I’ve learned to cook pretty well, even if he’s not home to share it, more leftovers for me
See if there’s any jobs you can do part time from home, my mom sells Avon, it occupies her time.
Go for a drive and explore places you’ve never been.
I like sewing, and scrapbooking! You can scrapbook anything. I heard of someone who made a scrapbook of things they loved for like houses. When they would see something in a magazine or something they liked, a couch, exterior deco for houses lanscaping anything they clipped it out and saved it and when they finally got to build their own house they pulled out their ideas and built it around all those pics!
i have two type of friends: people who dont use computers or people who do use computers.
If you dont – read a book, go bike riding, walk your dog, clean the house, wash your car, wash your clothes, try new receipes, go out with friends, go shopping, gardening, do things around the house basically. if you want to be productive, sell stuff on ebay, do research.
If you do – video games pass time if youre tired and lazy, I doubt you play any games, ive never seen a girl play games. i like RPG games, because you can soup your character up, complete quests, gain expierence, make money, etc. They are usually epic and has a good story, it will make you feel like youre in the game. i guess a girl game would be sims 2. but what do i know.
I won’t answer that, but its obvious and I’m to much of a gentleman to tell you, but you will soon find out there will be a lot of people out there who will tell you, a good thing to do if you have time on your hands is learn ballroom dancing you will never regret it, and you will have it for the rest of your life and it keeps you fit and in trim.
maybe if you have kids you can spend time with them and if you don’t start a book club with your freinds or a cooking club(you could also join a cooking class or book club) or you could just read at home and halogirl is right you need to read Twilight if you haven’t!!
I HOPE YOU FIND SOMETHING TO DO AND I HOPE I COULD BE OF HELP!!!!!
Do your nails
write a letter
start a journal
make a menu for the week
make a shopping list
search for new recipes
organize your closets etc
clean
floss your teeth
play PlayStation =the new gta is coming April 29
learn to crochet or knit or sew
support your favorite candidate for president by checking out their web site and joining a group in your area
plant some seeds indoors for summer flowers
well you can never get enough of y/a but any way i would try to take up the hoobie, art as its always a great hobbie and can be explored in many ways, so paints, shading, just drawings, textiles and many more. anythign you can think of really. this is normally a quite and enjoyable hobbie. another thing what is fun but requires tv is get yourself a wii hehe. can never get bored with them haha
I enjoy scrapbooking, I also sell Avon, which ties up some of my free time, also I have started playing cards with my husband! There are a lot of things that you can do, perhaps learn something that you have always dreamed of doing; ie dance, kickboxing, martial arts, piano lession, painting!
Good luck!
you could ride a bike….but i guess that counts as exercise lol
you could paint, draw, do crafts, talk on the phone, read a good book, clean the house lol bake, or any little activity you can think if you scrap booking its a fun thing to do that will take up time
Have you tried reading?
How about exercise?
I read a lot with audio books. I can get them from the library on CD’s or download them from Audible.com. I can load them on my MP3 player and read while driving or doing housework, or playing with the computer.
There is a lot out there, bothy fiction and nonfiction.
you can read, scrapbook, knit, crochet, cross-stitch, take up a sport for fun, hang out with friends, go to the mall, get icecream, sewing, plant a tree, pick up litter, do volunteer work maybe with friends if you want. that’s all that comes tom mind right now. good luck.
Sing and if you don’t know how, learn how to sing. Learning how to sing will keep you very busy for a long time because it takes time to learn how to be a very good singer. Singing makes you feel happy. It releases pheromones.
cleaning, art, dance classes, take up an instrument, find some new friends, go to the pub, go to the cinema, get involved in am dram, read a book, get involved in something local, eg bookclub, community centre, etc
I like to solve puzzles, play games online, read books, crochet, and knit. I have a lot of puzzle books and jigsaw puzzles. If you like to play games online, http://www.pogo.com is free. They also have Club Pogo which offers a lot more games and stuff for a pretty reasonable price.
scrapbooking, card making, stained glass, quilling, glass etching, beading, candle making, no sew projects, reading, calligraphy, photography, stone painting, rock tumbling & drilling, making glass & clay beads… all kinds of stuff
You could try to discover how many licks there ACTUALLY are in a Tootsie Roll Pop. I was going to suggest burglarizing your neighbor’s home, but I remembered that you wanted to do something that did not require physical exertion.
Try something new.
-paint by number
-crosswords
-online games
-bake some cookies
-register in a course (pottery, sign language etc.)
-volunteer!! (If you really have soooooo much free time why don’t you give your time to a deserving cause!)
-read a book
Be creative go to a friends house take a walk go to the park, volunteer i try to keep busy form that T.V but i sometimes get tempted i hope you don’t
Scrapbooking. I love to scrap it’s run easy and passes time.
Plus you get to something meaningful with that stack of pics you havn’t put in albums yet.
An engrossing activity that has no limits: masturbation!
Sorry, someone had to say it, it might as well be me.
Read-Manga books,Bud not buddy,Night,Child called it.
Take a hike or visit nature.
Um.. play addictive games like GTA or Sims..
LISTEN TO MUSIC!
Play World of Warcraft. You’ll be kept entertained for hours without realizing the time passing and you can even meet some really cool people.
Have you considered an affair? Obviously your husband is having one so you should probably get started or else you might be lonely forever.

I crochet and I love it. You can take it anywhere with you. I crochet on long trips. It is pretty easy to learn.
scrapbooking. its addictive.
SUDOKU!!!!
it uses the mind and it feels good when you complete it
or you can make things (arts and crafts)
shopping,cleaning,babysitting???
Dinner with friends. When my husband goes on afternoon shift I line up a different friend almost every night. Its fun and we look forward to it. He goes on that shift every 3 weeks.
Have you thought about volunteering?
Not only you would pass the time, but you would also help those in need and learn something new.
