Schedule start and end dates. Just as you would with a vacation, schedule a beginning and ending for your staycation to make it feel like an official vacation. Otherwise, it runs the risk of feeling like just another string of nights in front of the tube.
Pack that time with activities. Plan a daily activity, and make sure something takes you out of the house — for fun — every day.
Declare a "choratorium." That means no chores! Don't make the bed, vacuum, clean out the closets, pull weeds — nothing. You're on vacation!
Take staycation photos or videos, just as you would if you went away from home for your vacation.
