re: Do you know anyone that’s been completely shut in for a year?

I should add, and I don't mean this in a bad way, but the pandemic came at a perfect time for me. We were in the process of building our new house and were preparing to put our existing house up for sale, so the pandemic gave me a great reason to stay home and focus on packing and selling stuff I didn't want to move, etc.

It also has allowed us to focus on our new house, and get stuff done so that we can enjoy it this summer, so while I don't wish a pandemic on anyone, it has helped me somewhat in that regard.
