Now that I'm stuck around the house more,and pretty much bored with my phone and nothing worth turning the TV on for I find myself smoking a lot more than usual..That's not really a bad thing though..The wife has already said that if I start running low on tobacco Just order more..Some times I really like her.

I am definitely like you, though for me smoking a lot more means 2 - 3 bowls a day VS 3-5 bowls a week. It helps with the boredom that I now have a wood lathe and some scraps to play with, but this much free time with my pipes and the backyard only a few steps away I find myself making excuses to go sit in the yard and listen to the birds while I enjoy a bowl.

Funny thing or maybe not. This pandemic thing hasn't changed my life style what so ever, I don't leave the house but, maybe 2-3 times a month max so......... I try and keep busy making pipes and it pretty much monopolizes my time to the point I hate to even go do laundry or grocery shopping. Don't smoke any more or any less, 3-4 bowls a day maybe.

Im smoking about the same, it hasn't changed much. Im trying to cut down on coffee, that's what's becoming a problem for me in this forced confinement. For the last several days, if I get restless Ive been making another cup of coffee...or getting something to eat. Ive had to conciously cut that out too. If not, I'm gonna come out of this thing one very fat, very cranky old cowboy. I am growing my beard back too. Just because I can.

I've found that things do get boring quickly. That said, I'm still working away, but differently, so things haven't changed much for me to get bored. The only reason why I had a few pipes last week is because the weather got bearable to sit out.
Nice of your wife to give you the OK to buy more tobacco. She's a keeper.

I am smoking more and watching Netflix on the computer, nothing worth looking at on TV.

Unfortunately no, still have to go to work and allergies are driving me up the wall so I'm smoking less. Also, it is really hard not to touch your face when everything on it itches too!

I am smoking more and watching Netflix on the computer, nothing worth looking at on TV. Watched Tiger King yet? Insane.
New season of Ozark is quite good so far, too.

Tiger King! I saw one preview, and that was enough for me. I'll pass. |

I do smoke more, which means I actually smoke a bowl each day. Splurged on some new tapewounds for the bass and been jamming away on soul classics all night. Mostly, this thing is really effin up my sleep schedule.

Smoking less myself.
On the long stretches, i load up a bowl, but most hotels are non smoking, so SNUS and snuff fill the bill. This corona-virus thing has really accelerated my work. I am thinking about flying Larry out to ride shotgun, I could use some help.
Larry, it would be an all expense paid vacation, and we stay in as decent hotels as are available.

I'm a stay home kinda guy anyway, but I seem to be smoking less of late. With spring full upon us, I find I'm out cutting grass, trimming bushes and cleaning out flower beds. I even picked up a wood chipper, from Harbor Freight, to clean up the waste from our crape myrtles, and there's also the cold weather veggies to plant in the early spring garden.
I just don't like to puff on the go; I'd much rather sit on my butt while smoking, so lately, two bowls is about the max.
