Answer
Play a computer game (scrabble, mah jong or bridge for me), read a book or magazine, do crossword puzzles or sudoku, listen to music, watch a movie, write in a journal, play a board game, or answer questions here on yahoo answers. Cook something, clean the house, go for a walk, work out, call a friend, send emails, visit someone, or even go shopping.
Writing in a journal is an interesting thing to do, especially when you go back weeks or months or even years later and read what you wrote. Buy yourself an interesting blank journal that represents who you are, and start writing your daily thoughts, ideas, and important events. You'll be surprised at how quickly you will look forward to the time you spend with it each day. And it could become a powerful record for posterity.
Look for a new hobby. Find something that is of particular interest to you. Possibly you might like to begin researching and compiling your family tree. I am sure many members of your family would encourage you with a project such as that. A couple of other things that come to mind that I have found interesting in the past, and they now occupy my grandchildren are learning to do origami (read the story about Sadako and the 1000 paper cranes, and maybe start a paper crane project of your own), and another is learning to tie different knots (most book stores will have a book on the different knots, and it is quite interesting, and also a very useful skill to have).
Take a class - learn the finer points of digital photography, painting, writing short stories, small appliance repair, playing bridge, dog grooming, pottery, home maintenance, carpentry, plumbing, quilting, scrapbooking, or anything else that is offered in your area. Often you can find classes that are free, or almost free.
Finally, and probably most importantly, if you find yourself bored often, consider volunteering. It will give you a new focus in your life, and it is a good feeling to help someone less fortunate or more in need than yourself. It can be a life changing experience.
Boredom is a choice you make, not a state of existence. If you are bored, it is because you are allowing yourself to be bored. Look around you. Most likely you have books, and a wide variety of other possessions. Look at the things around you and think of ways to use them. If there are people around you, think of ways to help those people. Think of others and how to help them, not yourself, and you will never be bored.

Amish dog breeders?
teenabeena
I recently moved to NJ and I am looking to buy a puppy. Most people tell me they got their dog from an Amish breeder closeby in PA. I did some research and I found that the Amish view thier dogs as a crop and mass produce them in puppymills. Is this true of all Amish breeders. My friends dog seems healthy. Are there any good Amish breeders around here? Do they all run puppy mills?
I am looking for a chihuahua or a miniature pinscher.
Answer
YES it is very true.. They are well known to be puppymills, especially in the PA area.. Do a google on the whole thing, you'll see that it's awful. Lots of news stories about how they don't care for their animals and breed them just to make money without regard for the dog's health or anything else..
There was a puppymill busted around here not too long ago. 40 dogs left in a barn without food and water, some dead, most dying, all full of parasites.. It was one of the Amish.
We see them in town now and then... They get their horse from the slaughter house before it is killed... Then they work it to death... I maybe wouldn't say 100% of them are puppymills because that would be a ridiculous statement, obviously there is maybe maybe maybe some that aren't like that. But it is a well known fact that they are puppymills.
Pennsylvaniaâs moniker as the âpuppy mill capitol of the Eastâ is no secret. If the state is to shed its shameful reputation, changes to Dog Law are absolutely necessary to protect dogs being bred in terrible conditions. No reasonable person or organization would argue with this.
The breeding of dogs in Pennsylvania represents a multi-million dollar industry, so it should come as no surprise that those who have the most to lose are putting forth the biggest opposition to reform. The American Kennel Club is leading the pack in across-the-board opposition. Nipping at the their heels is the Pennsylvania Federation of Dog Clubs. Both are campaigning furiously to stop humane legislation.
A member of the Agriculture Committee, Rep. Jim Cox (R-Berks), said this about high volume breeders at a recent Agriculture and Rural Affairs Committee meeting: âThey breed some dogs, find them good homes, and make a buck in the process.â His ignorance of a major problem in Pennsylvania is mind-boggling.
