- how you usually spend your free time indoors;
- your advice on how to make his/her stay at home more exciting.

Hello my friend glad to hear you.
I am also not delighted with this weather because you do not get sad so often friends. but I already had nothing like that. I don’t have enough free time because of training I try to spend less time at home. sports at home, this will help you to raise your mood, as it always helps me. then you can watch cool TV shows, I can advise you later. I devote my free time to school and then only to friends.
You can also invite your friends to your home for a movie. And not forget to help your parents around the house if you have time they will be grateful to you.
I think this is a great idea. I was glad to hear you write if it helped you
