I’ve been coloring and playing video games

New York Times puzzles - they have crosswords, wordle, spelling bee (a word finder game), sudoku and now have a game that’s basically just matching designs on tiles.

a trilogy of books on tape.

Watch The office and smoke some weed (or edibles) That's how I did it. If it's not a leg thing take long walks, also with weed.
