Do you sometimes feel like your life is just plain boring? I feel that way, everyday I do the same thing and I just want to bring some excitment into it. Do things, that nobody would expect me to do. Does anybody else feel this way?

I always think that I would like to bring more excitement into my life, but you have to remember that this is not always possible due to money issues and things like that. One of the main things that holds me back in my life is the fact that I have to work full time, and this means that I don't have the time to be able to go away on holiday or even weekends away really as I have no time to plan it or go shopping for it. Once I have bought my house, I will be able to cut back on the amount of time that I spend in work, and then I should be able to make the most of the rest of my life.

I think if I was working that I probarly wouldn't feel like this so much. When I was working before I hurt my back, I felt like my life was better. I had money to do more things.

You are not alone tammymarie37. I'm a stay-at-home mom and I wish I could have things that would help keep me busy. I have passion for cooking and writing food recipes but I lack utensils to experiment new food recipes from my own creative mind. I know it sounds boring to others but for me, it brings excitement into my life.

If that is what brings in excitement into your life then I say go for it. Its what every makes you happy. I am an internet junkie and that is what keeps me from being bored, plus I love to draw, write and do graphic design work. But part of me wishes there could be more, if that makes any sense :)

oh yes, especially lately. And I'm talking about work. yeah, I'm getting unemployment and I'm able to pay my pay my bills, but it's getting too long. I want that alarm to go off, me hitting the bed because I've got to get up and go back work. Plus, as long as I am only getting unemployment, I've decided no concerts, no ballgames no going out to breakfast once a week.

I know what you mean. My husband gets a monthly check, but I rather be out there working. We are both unemployed right now and its starting to get to both of us. We get up in the mornings take our daughter to work and go back to sleep til noon. That isn't healthy at all, so I gotta snap myself out of this funk.

I Always feel board everyday and to treat that feeling I always look for something that can make me feel alive like arts, colors, designs (anything as long as it is nice to watch), cooking, baking, programming, and chatting with people. Doing things which I never did before is also a nice thing to do as long as it not harmful.

I felt this way today when I looked on FB and every single post on the news feed was happy about finals being over, graduation, marrying, new jobs...etc. Sometimes I look at myself and what I am doing and don't see that I am up to par with others. I am doing just as much as anyone else, but not so much in the relam of settling in life as many of my friends are at this stage. The best way to get rid of the feeling is to leave that site and come on here and talk to others to help them in their situations.

I felt that way for along time myself, I would see all my friends going places, buying new things and living the lives they want. Sometimes I think why can't that be me :) It really also go me thinking about my life. There are things I want to do, but I don't because I know mostly my family want approve. but I am 37 yrs old and its time to live my life.
