Ten on Tuesday - 8

Here's the random 10 things that I did when the husband was working over the weekend glued to the computer at home!  Which means I still have no free time, but to cook and serve him, let alone feed him!  And the weather outside was pretty cold, so did not divulge myself to go out for any photo shoot.
I was so bored, and tried to do 100 other things to keep myself occupied!  How crazy that could get? Presenting a few of the stupidest things that I did over the last weekend.


1. Downloaded / installed 100 apps on my iphone and saw how they are and after some fiddling, deleted them!  
2. Cleared my wardrobe and re-arranged them again!  
3. When you are bored, you don't want to do the regular chores like washing, cleaning, cooking etc.  While I was reading Memoirs of a Geisha, all of sudden I wanted to check my typing skills.  So, set the timer on, opened the word doc and started typing one chapter.  And had a pat on my back!
4. Went through amazon and added some 25 items as a wishlist. I think I need to email these to S!
5. Pampered myself. Soaked for hours in the bath and applied loads of moisturizing cream.  
6. Wrote a few blog topics for the days to come and have drafted them.  Whenever an idea struck me, I open and key in the details and save as draft.  I work on them one day, whenever something enlightens me!  Yes.  I have 35 drafts so far!  
7. Connected my harddisk and went through my archives especially photos. Going through old junk data, excel, photos, scraps is a nice feeling. I saw an excel which read Notes from my life.  It had some random dates and what happened that day!   
8. Browsed through Imdb and made a list of 25 movies that I need to download and see. 
9. Drank some 15 glasses of water. Room hopped every 15-20 minutes, went to kitchen and drank a glass of water!  
10. Prepared a bucket list / things to do for the next 10 years! Haven't completed them.  Will write about them in a separate post!

Any other interesting ideas to do when we get bored, Please share them.  I might desperately need them over the next few weekends too!

  2. 35 drafts? That's some number alright! I have equal number of post topics/ ideas but I have written them down in a diary. Once I write a post, I will publish it immediately (except one, that I have not published till now). Your art of making time for all these things needs to be appreciated!

    1. Writing down in diary is beautiful DI! Sometimes when I'm cooking I come across writing something, and I just stop the cooking in the middle, fill the details in a post draft and then resume back my cooking! That's how most of my post ideas are formed. And for some topics which I wanted to research a bit more, stays on my draft for longer time :)
      That's how I waste me time!!

  3. Agree on that about drinking water.
    And this: "Going through old junk data, excel, photos, scraps is a nice feeling"

  4. Wow! 35 drafts? I have none :P I'm always so clueless about what to post. I loved Memoirs of a Geisha. It's one of my favourite books! Have you seen the movie?
    Soaking in the bath is something every girl loves doing :P
    Watch some movie if you're bored or some really funny sitcoms :)

    1. I'm sometimes equally clueless about what to write! Because I wanted to blog everyday, I kind of jot down most of the ideas :)
      I am loving the book, haven't seen the movie still!
      I would loved to watch movies. But S was occupying the Tele room hence had no choice but to forego tele :(
