What are you doing while in isolation?

Been putting in a couple hours of work each day but have limited ability to do more outside of the office. Most home projects have been completed, and I’ve done quite a bit of cleaning and donating of items I no longer need.

I became a guitarist a couple years ago and have been able to put some serious time into that which has been both rewarding and fun. I’m now looking into picking up some new hobbies but I’m not sure what just yet.
 
Went out for a drive in my 1983 Datsun 280ZX Turbo this afternoon. A solo drive doesn't hurt anything and traffic was lighter than usual.

I'm finishing an update to my online class, catching up on a bunch of video file conversions and edits, and cleaning up rooms that have boxes of stuff from our kitchen remodel last summer.

Subject to change on a daily and hourly notice....

I get out in my BMW z4 every day. An hour clears my head nicely. Gas is the cheapest it's been in years, and out in cow country the roads are empty. Yesterday was the first top down day this season. I stopped to take some photos by a lake and a couple of cars stopped (at a safe distance) and commented on my car.
 
After breakfast read the Bible for an hour ,then walk outside. After that pick one home project and do it. Lunch then touch base with friends by phone or text, then play bass and harmonica, with so much to do get my nap out of the way then more bass playing, check TB for real news, read a book. Dinner, check the tv fake news, watch tv or read or make music, take the dog out, stop take time, give thanks for daily blessings, bed time. In the wee hours let the dog out, if she needs to go she wakes me up, daylight reset,repeat.
 
I would go stir crazy staying at home. I do still have to work. I do IT work at a hospital. My company has split us all up. One of us is onsite, others work from home.
Shelter in place & social distancing from neighbors?
Picture is my closest neighbor and my back yard. I think I am OK.
