Many of us are or will be working from home due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Aside from work, what other things will you be doing to fill in the time at home?

Hey Rami, sounds good. For me, just the usual study, but also a little along your lines, with some strategy and marketing for a consulting business that a colleague and I are working on.
Good Luck Mate, stay safe. Cheers !

We have been working remote since 10-days ago and mandated to self-quarantine so from the last few days.

- It is easier to find time to run, either during old commute hours or by using lunch.
- We are moving, so more time for packing and touchups
- Bonfires with the fam
- Reading
- Need to upgrade my SAFe SA to 5.0 :)

Interestingly enough, I have spent less time 'connected' (as in being online) since being remote.
We also have been working remotely for the last couple of weeks. Like you, I oddly found that I am spending less time connected - online & working. I typically work 50-60 hrs a week, but working from home, it's been easier to cut back and only work the 40 hours I'm paid for.

This gives me more time to spend with my family, focus on schoolwork (I'm pursuing a degree & PMP certification), and even have a little "me" time. I think working from home has given me a healthier work/home balance.
