I’ve wanted to get into puzzles but I don’t have anywhere to work on them without my cats messing them up

Lol what about 3D puzzles? You can put them back in the box or in a drawer and they’re usually a little more firm

I’ve never heard of those, I’ll have to look into them

I was on a Lego kick for a bit but my cats kept messing with them and biting pieces off

Another suggestion is building models. Rokr has some cool wooden kits which is fairly similar. You can find Metal Earth kits too

I’m planning on getting some shelves to put up high where they hopefully won’t be able to find a way to reach so I can put stuff I don’t want them messing with there

That’s a good idea! Hopefully they don’t see it as a new challenge

I really hope not, I’m constantly getting them new toys and stuff and rearranging things like their cat tree so they don’t get bored but I think they’re just assholes

I’ve really wanted to get back into running, I ran cross country in 7th grade and I was really good until I had to drop it cause the arch in my left foot would get insanely bad pains, never figured out what the problem was but I was never able to fully get myself back into it after that.

Aw, I’m sorry man, that sounds difficult, if you’d still like something active though swimming might keep the pressure off your foot. If it only hurts when running maybe you could still take walks. (If those activities are completely off the table cause of the pain though some things that could still get you out and about are photography, birdwatching and bug pinning)

It’s not something that I’ve felt for a while but I do worry that it will come back if I start running again. I’m also not really sure what I’ll do with winter coming, my work has a small gym that we can use for free but we aren’t allowed to use it when we’re shut down for Christmas and summer (we get like a week off around the Fourth of July) and I know that Christmas shut down will definitely throw me off and I’ll be stuck at square one again. I had a gym membership but it was too much money

Just to use the treadmill lol, I’m in that constant cycle of telling myself I’m going to start doing it but my body just won’t

It’s okay lol, I work nights so I don’t get a lot of opportunity to be outside during the day, I did participate in the company golf league this year which isn’t exactly my favorite option because of the whole environment thing and how bad golf courses are, but it was kind of fun being a menace to all the old men

that could be plantar fasciitis. it can be caused by a narrow toe box shoe cutting off the blood flow to the bottom of your foot. barefoot running shoes would likely solve that. also another hobby recommendation is hula hooping. i started it a few years ago and it’s really fun and satisfying and has improved my proprioception a lot. or any other flow toy. they’re not super expensive and you can learn for free online

I really need to make myself read more books, I’ve had a hard time finding books that come close to being as good as my favorites

Its rock climbing except indoors so u arent dependent on he weather and its a lot less dangerous. Its really fun! Befor u even approach the wall u have to look at it and figure “the puzzle” (the route) out, only then u actually do it. Its my favorite hobby besides scuba diving

Hopefully there’s a place in the next town over that I can look into, my town doesn’t have stuff like that but I think my best bet is in KC which is two hours away, I yearn for the city
