The Coronavirus has started to come in full-force within the United States, leading to event cancelations, school closures, and in some areas, complete lockdowns. While we find ourselves practicing safe social distancing, isolated inside our homes, and continuing our educations online, we also find ourselves with an extra bit of free time. As we approach the weekend staying home may become more daunting, but with a list at the ready, I’m sure you can find something to fill your time with.
