When Life Becomes Boring...While Waiting

What do you do when cross-stitch, movies/tv, music, and reading...everything to hand, in fact, holds no interest?  When there's not enough fuel to go driving just for pleasure, nowhere interesting to go on foot, your back is still too sore for a lot of sitting or strenuous activity anyway (even if you could think of anything interesting), there's not enough food for boredom-eating, and no money to fix any of it?  It does help to bump into a sister online for a bit of nonsense chatting; passes the time while lifting the spirits with a few laughs.  But what then?  A blog to spout on also takes up some of the slack time, but that won't hold for long - who wants to read (or write, for that matter) screeds of bored drivel?
How do you pass the time with nothing much to do after you've already been passing the time for some time?
How do you 'redeem the time' when there's a time lag?
How do you sit still and be content when you're itching to get to work on a work that has already been worked out but it's not time yet?
How do you do nothing when you've nothing to do it with?  You could end up wishing you had nothing to do with it...!
What should you do when town living gets to be a bit too much, but the country living isn't due for at least one-plus-eight months?
What do you do when your life's dream is within reach, but your hands are tied - and you chose the tying and gave the release rights into God's hands?
It's the best way, but it does have its extreme moments - of boredom :(  Grrr!  I'm still in love with life, still rearing to go... but still tied up.  Willingly, but not, if you get my meaning.
Ok, I'm done here.  Carpe dium, and all that.
