The spread of Coronavirus has forced California to be under Shelter in Place. This means that all residents should remain at home unless they have essential reasons for going out. To make the most of your time at home, here is a list of free or cheap activities during Shelter in Place.
Initially, I wanted to take this #shelterinplace order and make it a challenge.
How can I still get an amazing workout in my home, can I still eat healthy when the only items left in the store are frozen pizza, how many books can I read, etc.
But, I’m learning to have patience with myself. The situation is out of my control and I need to learn how to roll with the punches.
To make sure you are having fun, trying something new, and able to fight boredom, I came up with a long list of free or cheap activities during Shelter in Place.
