    My state was never locked down. Just suggested you stay home if you could. For me I don't think much has changed. I do stay home more. I am not able to work from home. For a while I was closer to a cousin when this first started but due to disagreements about the covid and politics she will not speak to me.  Has not spoke to me since May 4. The people I really care about I don't think anything is much different.

    i'm not fond of people.  quarantine suits me just fine.  Partner and I get out to walk hours before breakfast, before any of the slow normies are up.  My mask works fine.

    I normally would spend alot of time visiting my bedridden Mom. Zooming aggravates her MS and she is extremely deaf visiting is difficult. Not wanting to take any chances. I make need based visits or wave from the front door.

    I feel closer only because it has made me realize just how precious life can be since so much sickness and death has been caused due to this virus. It is difficult not to see the ones you love but we are staying in touch with social media and phone so much I feel like we are together to a point! This has been going on so long I am having to be careful more so than most because I am a diabetic with other health issues. I will be glad when we can be back to somewhat normal as I know everyone does! I pray for us all!
