So now that we all have sheltered in place. What are your NEW quarantine addictions? If you always had a happy hour, please don’t list it. Please share something new. So here are some of my new habits — the good, bad and the ugly!
- Online gaming– Not gambling yet. But I love the apps Canasta Junction and Real Mah Jongg. Seriously, I can play for hours and with friends or even strangers.
- Baking — I’ve tried recipes I have never attempted before. Without bragging, I’m getting quite good.
- Yoga pants — I’m not sure I have worn anything else in 2 months. I’m frightened to put on pants with a waist and a button. Yikes!!
- Organizing — I’m going through old photos from my parents and grandparents, rearranging drawers and yes more cleaning.
- Hoarding– I want to hoard paper towels, Kleenex, wipes, toilet paper. But I can’t find enough. And since I know it’s wrong I will not. But, I have an urge because it’s in short supply.
So please share your newly developed addictions. Let’s all hope we won’t keep them.

Organizing old photos , drawers , closets … and wearing jammies 24/7
Definitely realmahjong.com. I’ve never played online games before but playing with friends has helped reduce my stress. I wear Shamata’s most of the time and don’t want to even think about putting on real clothes. I too have tried some baking which is the last thing I need! Having a few friends over – social distancing with them on the patio and us talking through a screen door helps a lot
Exactly! Thanks for your thoughts!
