Hey my extremely active husband has a bad tailbone injury from mountain biking that could last for 6+ weeks and I need help with frugal things to keep him busy. He usually spends every second of sunlight outside or work/commute/cooking mountain biking or cross training. He has a personality that likes to be busy and active but none of that works right now. The couch time is making him depressed.
My most successful idea has been empanadas from scratch, it was cheap and took several hours to make a big batch and he was proud of them and happy in a way scrolling reddit doesn’t make him.
Any other activities where I could do the heavy lifting or any twisting motions but he could feel he is contributing or doing something productively creative? Doing things is a big part of his identity. What hobbies sitting in place would be good? He has cnc /laser cutter/3D printer stuff but needs ideas to motivate him.
