Feeling bored on my day off

What to do to keep my mind busy?
So here's a little bit about me, I am married and have three school age children. I was always a stay at home mum up untill this year when I landed my first job. It is casual based some weeks I work all week and then other weeks mayb be for 3 days or less etc., today is my day off & I am feeling rather lonely in my quiet house while hubby is at work and kids are at school. I have catched up on house work & washing this morning and now I'm feeling bored. What do other mums get up too on your days off ? Lunch or coffee date with friends or a sister would have been good but they are also all at work.

Visit my grandma in her nursing home.
Go to the gym.
Go for a swim (costs all of $7).
Go for a bike ride.
Go for a long walk/run.
Read a book.
Catch up on a favourite TV series.
Go for a coffee on my own and read paper or book!

Sometimes we are so busy all the time we forget how to turn off. Try going to the park or to a lookout, somewhere you can enjoy the surroundings. Turn off the phone and just stop. Listen to the breeze, the birds, your heart beating. Close your eyes if you like. The first time 10 minutes will kill you but it gets easier and a little peace and quiet is very good for busy people :) You might be surprised :)
