I try to read more but what else is there when I don’t wanna just read? I’ve done some notebook stuff too but I’ve found using it too much makes me be anxious about writing a lot down lol.

For instance as I lay on the bed for 10-20 minutes waiting for my child to take their nap. Do I just stare into the void?

      OK, disregard those phone based ideas.

      I read it as if you were looking for content that is outside of most phone based offerings (nasty psychologist created addiction loops etc.)

      Bike riding is excellent for a physical and mental reset. Rear-radars are a thing, beeping when a car is approaching behind from 150m.

      Badminton is great too. Portable cheap nets are available with telescopic poles.

      Boardgames are great for social mixing.

      Probably find something you like from these: Innovation, Inis, Port Royal, Just One, or Scout.

        Ah that’s a fair assumption. Luckily I’m mostly off of addicting phone content except maybe some YouTube videos here and there.

        Thanks for the further suggestions. I should bike again! Has been hard with a child

          You can do it! (c:

          The WeeRide models are good for a toddler seat, that is positioned on the crossbar.

          For bigger kids, probably need a behind seatpost model.
