I try to do something new each week. Even if it seems like it's going to be boring, like a book signing of an author I haven't heard of, I try to plan out activities for myself as if my life was a summer camp or something.
In the past little while, I've:
picked blueberries at a farm.
gone to see the fireworks.
had a picnic at the beach.
gotten together with friends for a potluck.
joined a gardening club.
gone to a jazz festival.
gone to the local farmers' market.
Is there anything around you you can do? Bookstores usually have readings. Libraries too. There might be a new exhibit at an art gallery near you. You could get your friends together for a potluck or a board games night. You could take up a new hobby, like photography, knitting, or scuba diving. You could check out a new nightclub. Or you could take a course online or at a community centre, in various things like a new computer program or woodworking.
You could enrich your life easily by doing some volunteer work. If there is a Big Sisters or a Big Brothers program near you, you could spend an hour or two a week with a child who needs more attention. You could be a volunteer driver to deliver dinners to whomever it is that Meals on Wheels delivers to.
At any rate, I'm sure your life isn't that boring. Maybe you're just in a rut. I hope these suggestions help.
