Bored on maternity leave

It's officially 3 months until I start my maternity leave, unless she decides to come early. While I hope that she will come around her due date, I'm curious what you previous working moms did to keep your sanity while on maternity leave haha. I've always stayed very busy, working full time as well as a business on my own. All that will be on hold soon and I'm just not sure how I feel about it!

I'll be due just a couple days before I go on leave, so let's hope it's not too long, but yeah with the boyfriend at work all day and it will start getting cold here... it seems like I need a little hobby. Ha! And even when she gets here... other than sleeping, I think Netflix is going to get pretty lame!

I have 8 more weeks until my mat leave starts. Hopping baby comes a little early or really near her due date. I'm taking 2 weeks off before she is due. Don't want to be stuck at home, bored with nothing to do. :(
