You know what I do I write down recipes and try them. Its gotten fun to cook and especialy baking anything from cokies, cheesecakes and much more. I listen to music while cleaning the house, reading, drawing, been writing down ideas of what artcrafts to do when the baby is here so I can have memories like painting his foot and hands and puting them in a paper into a frame to hang up and much more :)

I know how u feel since im stuck at home too. Since my depression has been real bad my doc put me on prozac. Other than that, i go walking, read, and do puzzles.
