Ten Ideas for Snowy Days by Dale Reynolds

Boredom is a huge eating trigger for many people. Being stuck inside on a snowy day can drive us to nosh all day long, adding inches to our waistlines! So here are a few ideas to keep you busy doing something else! Note that several of these ideas require some planning ahead, as you need to have supplies on hand to get started. So pick the ones that appeal to you and get the things you need before you get stuck at home!

Clean out a closet you’ve been meaning to reorganize, and take any unwanted items to Goodwill or the Salvation Army or a local church. Clean out your “junk room” and turn it into that cute guest room you’ve always wanted. This could even lead to a shopping trip, for a new bedspread and drapes, a new lamp, some nice scented candles-who knows!

Start organizing your income tax records. It may not be fun, but it’s a whole lot better to do it when you have time to think instead of when you’re under the gun! Add up charitable donations, make sure your business records are in order, and make a list of anything you’re missing so you have time to find it before you really need it.

Scrap booking is becoming a national pastime! You can even buy books on how to do it. Get those holiday photos out and have some fun!

Do you like to write? Composing short articles to post on the web is fun. And if you want to drive people to your personal or business website, your bio can help. Decide on a topic you have knowledge of, but want to learn even more about. The research process is fun and can consume some extra time. And you just might learn something valuable!

Paint a room (or more than one!) Some new colors, wallpaper or borders, and some new accents could help lift winter blues! (Again, supplies need to be on hand! Plan ahead.)
