Ursula gets my vote for the best suggestion!!

Wish I had thought of that when I was stuck prone on the sofa for two weeks last year.

Mostly I slept during that day when I was alone and stayed up all night watching movies on tv. After a while you lose your concentration. If your concentration is shot try reading travel brochures or trashy magazines ;-)

It took me a few seconds to realize that this idea wasn't as shocking as I thought it was. ;-)

When I was pregnant, I was stuck in bed for 6 monthes because of hyperemesis. (severe nausea and vomiting- lovely, I know) Most of the time I was too sick to do anything, but when I wasn't I read, watched movies, went through my pictures, and even had my hubby go and buy me one of those really detailed kids poster with pens that you color. That was actually kinda fun. Did someone on here list crossword puzzles yet? Not my thing, but mabey. Scrapbooking's kinda tedious, but definitely a time eater.(and fun)

Hope your better soon!

LOVE that idea LOL
I spent my 1st day in bad playing playstation 2. I was amazed at how fast the day goes by, no wonder the kids do not that several hours have gone by while on there. Hubby bought PS2 for me a couple of years ago along with Kingdom Hearts and so I am catching off where I left it about a yr ago

Thank you for all the ideas, I printed them off and will tell hubby to fetch items on Saturday.
