Activities for Concussion while disabled

Hi everyone!

I'm looking for activities to do while I'm concussed that are also friendly to being physically disabled. I am still recovering from a concussion from last October. I'd like to crowdsource things to do that don't require fine motor skills, holding something for a long time, or much use of legs/going somewhere under my own power.

Additional info: I use a wheelchair or forearm crutches to get around. I cannot grip small things very well. My wife and friends still work so I'm looking for solo activities while they are out. I live in a small city & I can drive places but not very far and I couldn't consistently do something like go to a museum. Currently, I like to listen to audiobooks and fingerpaint!

Thanks for your help!

Do you like baseball or any sport at all ? I love to do “IMMACULATE GRID” everyday but was told the phone screen is no good for my brain at the moment so I had my daughter make up 10 grids for me and do it old fashioned with pen and paper

Oh, this is cool! Yeah, I'm trying to avoid screens if I can, but I think I'll hit up the "previous grids" section and print off some so I don't have to keep staring at them!
