Life As Usual

But harder.

Now that we’re weeks (years? I dunno) into quarantining and social distancing, I’ve had friends ask how it is for me.

For reference, I live in Seattle close to downtown. I am an essential worker. My employer does offer work from home currently however, my living space does not work with that. It is noisy (I have to take phone calls), I don’t have the space for a desk or work area and there is a whole other human being within close proximity when I’m at home so that is not happening.
