Any positive suggestions are welcome. Can’t do heavy lifting.
We've been remotely meeting with family, reading books, taking long walks, and enjoying cooking and playing games.

Another thing I've really enjoyed is pulling out old CDs and sitting and listening to them like I've not been able to do in a long while (in another life, I was an A/V salesman).

Finally, my kids have been out in the back yard for a long while creating their own "camps" with extra tarps and hammocks.

There's no doubt that this is horrible in most respects, but it's really reminded me of the simple joys I used to love.

Take care, friend.
