I clean my fish tank! I also find the interactiveness of video games really distracting.

Cleaning something where you can see it coming clean is definitely a great distraction! It's sometimes hard work, and you can feel like you're accomplishing something.

I enjoy watching Netflix and I'm starting a new hobby to make bracelets and jewelry. So, when I watch a show or movie on Netflix I am weaving string in and out to make a colour design for a bracelet.

I am training my puppy and I cuddle with him all the time on the couch (he seems to enjoy it) and going for walks with him.

Sometimes, when I want to get out of the apartment when I am feeling crappy, is I take long bus rides around the city. I find it relaxing and I listen to the radio for entertainment. I come back feeling much better.

Fairy: I used to do that with the bus or train when I lived urban myself, and agreed, that's a great one! Also: prime people watching!
