There are loads of fun and meaningful things you can do by yourself at home or outside the house, whether it's a special occasion (like your birthday) or just a regular day:
  • Spend an afternoon in the library to discover cool new books, take a class, or attend a reading
  • Go to the gym or take a fitness class
  • Volunteer for a cause you find meaningful
  • See a movie at the theater
  • Go thrifting or browse an antique shop
  • Explore an art, history, or science museum
  • Go strolling in the park or hike in the woods
  • Listen to an audiobook or podcast
  • Do a puzzle
  • Garden

I love just pet my cats while I daydream about having more cats. Most of my activities are cat-related.
