    I'm not sure this is the best/correct place to Post but, equally, I can't see how to create a new Post (on an Android phone).

    On its own, my day has gone pretty well but it's just one day in a life that feels unfulfilled, empty and pointless!

    Everywhere you look/read, 'experts' say "... work and exercise are the path to a better quality of life" - complete BS (IMHO). I guess this is what has led me to make this Post...

    What do others do, to both fill their time and achieve fulfillment?

    Exercise is, more or less, a no-no due to mobility issues and pain levels (don't bother with the 'no pain, no gain' mantra - I'm not a pro athlete, nor do I want to be!). Before 'the pandemic' I used to swim regularly but changes put in place at my local pool, along with seriously stretched finances mean I haven't returned to it!

    As for work... I had a job, which the previous government's failed austerity policies took away! Now I couldn't care less about working, even if I had the confidence to look for employment - which the aforementioned job loss also stripped me of!

    Sorry for the looooong Post...(which could have been even longer and more detailed!)

    Sounds great @Katiekoo, did you get anything special or just a normal shop?

    Hi @UKDJ, on an Android phone, there should be a little purple circle with a white plus in it that floats towards the bottom right of your screen. That's the button to press if you'd like to make a new post. Hope that makes sense! I'll pop a link here too: Make a new discussion.

    Are there any hobbies you can try at home? Learning a new skill can help fill your time if you're not able to leave the house too much and can give you a sense of achievement. If there's anything in particular you'd be interested in, there's so much on YouTube these days so it's easy to find free how-to videos if you're learning something new.

    Thanks @Rosie_Scope... I was looking for a button/link on the page, but it floats above the scrolling text :-)

    I'm. Exhausted

    Was woken up by a cat fight at 4am

    I'm feeling really good today, thanks @Katiekoo. I hope today is another good day for you!

    Sorry about the cat fight @Amberpearl, they can be very loud. I hope you were able to sleep again afterwards?
