3 Post-Quarantine Activities!

Quarantine has officially been lifted in some states, which means you can finally go outside and hang out with friends, visit your grandparents, and even go eat out at a restaurant -- while still abiding to social distancing guidelines, however. As someone with a high-risk family member, I am still wary about COVID-19 spreading, and I cannot risk getting the virus in fear of infecting my ill family member. Therefore, I will still be staying inside as much as possible, wearing facemasks when I go outside, and taking showers after I get back home. I do miss my friends and family though, and so I will definitely want to visit them and do in-person activities that don't require much contact. Here are some relaxing post-quarantine activities that you can do with your friends and family that will still follow social distancing guidelines!

Frisbee!

Frisbee is a very fun sport to play in an open area, which will help you maintain social distance! The game requires two or more people to throw the frisbee disk back and forth. If you have enough people, playing ultimate frisbee would make for a rigorous outdoor activity with friends and family.

Drawing with chalk!

It's time to show off your art! Drawing on pavements or streets with chalk is such a fun and creative activity to do. You can write uplifting quotes, draw beautiful art on each sidewalk block, or work together to create a floor mural! You can even have an art contest with your friends. There's so much you can do with chalk art, and it doesn't require that you are less than six feet apart!

A cozy outdoor picnic!

So many people are having picnic dates with their friends and family, even during quarantine! This is a great low-budget activity because it only requires a blanket and fresh food, ready to eat. It is also very easy to set up while still maintaining six feet of social distance. There's something very therapeutic about eating outdoors when the sun is out under a shady tree with friends you haven't seen in person for a while that makes you feel relaxed and more appreciative of life pre-quarantine. PS: Picnic dates make great Instagram photos too!

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
