I kept myself alive another year?

Nothing changed in my life. Worked every day

Is it only me that feels the amount of boredpanda's reader who are below 18 has increased during this pandemic? While some contents and comments are clearly better for 18+...

I am very happy for these people but now I feel so useless. I have gone weaker and weaker since the pandemic and the only thing I can do is housechores. My homemade bread is not even that good.

I have been at work in the building industry, which has boomed through the entire pandemic, working overtime every day in heels, in a non mask wearing office. I am SO deeply envious of the people that have been quarantined at home this whole time. I'm a painter, crafter, reader, writer, gardener, and no time to do pretty much anything.

I... uh... welp, I was ten years old when this madness started. Oh lord.

Working from home many days of the week. My canine assistants are in the bed in my home office, which I called the big pink. The walls are pink, and are full of music posters. Call it Music from the Big Pink.

I have played over 1,200 rounds of board games on BGA since 4/13/20 (board game arena) I have read at least 1 book a month (love to read rarely found the time before) I have completed at least a dozen 500-1000 pc puzzles. I redecorated my apartment. I learned to cross-stitch. And now I'm learning to paint with watercolor.

I started a new business and a new skincare routine. My cat gained weight, I lost a little. Mostly I just watched a lot of TV.

People love to bitch when they have vacation at home.

3 weeks without putting gaz in my car

Taught myself to crochet. Then taught myself to make French pastries like eclairs. Have done the Marie Kondo routine ("does it give me joy"?) and repurposed/revamped/repainted three rooms. And every day, everything I was doing anyway. If I stay busy enough, maybe the stress can't catch me!

I got mostly depressed

I'm envious that someone can be self quarantined at this point

Yeah, nothing really changed for me except not being able to attend conferences or travel much. Still went camping though and food is usually homemade anyways. Oh, but I did finish my Master's degree in August :)

in Texas where I live, the quarantine has been rather minimal & unenforced... guess what? we have the lowest new infection rate and death rate of all the states in the US... the math doesn't tally out, huh? My quarantine involved me being a long-haul covid experiencer... yep, got three, count 'em, THREE episodes of the virus... I know because the fever broke with cold sweats three times. One fever break was so bad I had to get in bed with a heating pad on my belly, & still was cold, cold, cold. Then I had the long-haul fatigue. I had the complication of walking pneumonia. Mr doctor got rid of that with antibiotics. Then the Feb 4th freeze hit. All my tropical & subtropical plants died. It cost $400 to get a plumber out to fix the damage which was four bad breaks. (what did I do, God? I repent!!!).... I had to wait a MONTH to get a plumber in the house. I was showering at the gym, washing clothes at the washateria, and water from my neighbor who got his pipes fixed,
