@brielarson's post, with 34.1K likes and counting, received so much attention not without reason. Being taken away from our daily routines, hobbies, and pastimes and suddenly finding ourselves in loungewear for more than 7 hours a day, 7 days a week trying to help our children make the Zoom classroom work suddenly became the norm. Perhaps you fell into purchasing collectible cartoon figures or gym equipment online, to mourn over shut gyms and your fantasy club meetings.

Growing out beards has also been great evidence of spending a year mostly at home, as well as stacks of series of books that have been devoured during the year the earth stood still. You had a few walls that needed painting? That’s probably done now, as well as completing 2-3 hand-knitted items and re-arranging everything in the living room that needed re-arrranging.

And if you haven’t engaged in baking, perhaps someone that you know did, that one friend that we all have that baked sourdoughs for everyone and posted at least one scrumptious vegan salad photo every two days, since restaurant meals have been replaced with wonders created in the comfort of personal kitchens. Maybe you have turned your living room into a music studio, recorded two or three decent-sounding tracks, and uploaded them on SoundCloud. And if not that, then maybe at least you bought some new instrument and learned how to somehow scratch your favorite tune. And at the end of the day, if you have done none of those things, well, that also could be serious evidence of spending a whole year in quarantine.

Literally started what was going to be an epic, beautiful bullet journal one week before quarantine started. You can't have a daily/weekly/monthly/yearly page(s) without any activities to put in them. It's embarrassing to write that Monday you scheduled waking up at noon, trying to cook, then several hours of Netflix. It's just so f*****g pathetic-smdh. Legit was pretty sad for 3 weeks when I realized I wouldn't get to use it last year.

jknbt whine, part 2.... now I have got the homeowner's association HOA after me to clean out the flower beds. They do need the attention after the Feb freeze, but what has a guy gotta do to get a break around here? I called my gardener/lawn mow service, but they never got back with me. I just opened a certified mail letter from the obnoxious HOA board threatening legal action marked "last notice/final notice".... The good news & happy ending is that I have mostly recovered and spent the weekend fixing up the yard. Yes, it needed attention. What a year!!! Hoo-boy!!!

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,
