I honestly can’t think of anything. I needed a new on board battery charger for the boat and the line to get in academy was long as shite so I just ordered curbside and went back later.

Seems like a pretty boring life if nothing that closed has changed it

I work from home, and didn't go out that much to restaurants, preferring to pick up and take home, so other than some restaurants being closed, not that much.

I was delayed getting a haircut if that counts.

Other than working from home, I play golf or go fishing almost every day. It’s like an early retirement.

so you people that says this hasn't changed your lifestyle one bit dont watch sports?


I did daily, but instead I’ve been staying at work longer and because of this I’m less stressed.

You dont go to live sporting events?


I did. And because I can’t I’ve probably saved $500 or so over the last two months.

You dont go to bars to watch baseball, March Madness....etc???


I did. And I have saved hundreds of dollars by not doing that and so therefore I’m in a better place than I would have been financially and mentally than I was before.

I mean a wedding/bachelor party that was going to be a damn good time got postponed but we will still do the same shenanigans at Florabama later this year

Now if football season gets fricked with my stance will change as we have LSU and Saints season tickets.

You honestly think they are gonna let everyone be packed into the stadium at the usual capacity?


So that means they will have to decrease the amount of people let in. Which means some ticket holders will be affected.

Will be curious to see how they figure that out.

You made a similar thread last month

Seems like you have some serious underlying issues with other people who have children.

Not much has changed.

I already worked from home and most of our company is remote anyways. We've been just as busy, if not busier than normal.

Husband's work has pretty much stayed the same minus taking one mandatory PTO day per week through the end of this month.

Daycare has stayed open and remained open, my kid has been going except for the two weeks we spent in LA when he and I both had a cold and he couldn't go.

Having a toddler we don't go out much anyways.

I do try and grocery shop during the day on random weekdays when there are less people at the stores, but I did that before anyways. I do miss breweries being open, but again, with a 2 year old we weren't going all that often.

We social distanced from the neighbors some, but every now and then our kid would still go play on their trampoline with their kids. They hated seeing each other outside and not getting to play.

I have said this all along... personally, hasn't had big impact.
Gym closing sucked, needed a break anyway.
Work is crawling along at 40 hrs/week.
Bar was every other week thing, no big loss.
Haven't really missed going out to eat.

Once toilet paper became available again, all is good!

You are in the 0.001% of the population and maybe more extreme than that if this hasn’t affected you in any way whatsoever.
