How do you keep yourself busy during lockdown?

doing maintenance at our customers whilst the are not using their servers too much
 
Usual home chores and cooking, chatting over the wall to neighbours; healthcare shift work; sewing projects that have waiting for ages; watching news and praying.
 
Stuff around the house, gardening, reading, cryptic crosswords, we started a 3000 piece jigsaw puzzle we bought last year that will likely take the whole lockdown to finish. A chap in our 'hood entertains us each evening with music via his Juke (that's the term he uses) with big outdoor speakers for about 30 mins. He's about 1/4km from us but with the south-easter it gets to us (and further) loud and clear. It's created a good community vibe.
 
Yep, retired but still do sales business online and finally have time to build the first lithium-ion powerwall as a step to taking the farm off-grid cheaply by scrounging and recycling. Also long walks with wife, son and dog. (sorry!) Will get around to long postponed home maintenance when lockdown is extended....
 
In the morning I try to crack a bit of sweat with what looks like a workout, then breakfast, house painting. On the days I'm not painting, I wash the car.

Today I washed it for the second time since lockdown even though I haven't driven it anywhere. I just discovered that my garage has some fine dust particles I never noticed before that try to mess up my hard work.

In the evenings my Unisa assignments get some attention as well. The time I spend on YouTube also increased considerably.
 
Work...100mbps fibre, vpn and MS Teams means business as usual. Team adapting to working remotely.
 
Work takes priority, but during down time I have so many projects I am working on. Restoring an old antique dresser, restoring some room divider cabinets (similar to the image), redoing kitchen and patio ceilings, and planting a small succulent garden in one of my large flower beds (I really hate gardening, so this is going slowly). We hoarded DIY materials before going into lock down. :ROFL:

Work, exercise, read, waste time on internet, usual really...just minus the daily travel to work...
