quarantine

Some things that came out of the quarantine were actually pretty great.

Once the shock of the quarantine wore off, there was some sort of weird acceptance that happened. And then gratitude. There are four specific things that I'll miss when the lockdown is completely over.

I couldn't take it anymore, so I had to shave the schnauzer completely. And then I discovered that Purina's "tips and tricks for keeping dogs happy" during the pandemic don't include buzz cuts.

Sometimes we read things that should be accepted without question, and this is one of those times. Drinking up to four cups of coffee per day can keep the lockdown pounds off. Fantastic! This is some news we can use.

If your family is anything like mine, you've worked your way through every board game in the house over the past month, and you feel fully qualified to rank and review them. These are the four best because the kids said so.

As if we didn't have enough to worry about. Working from home can be a good thing, but with kids doing school at the same time and constant snack temptations, it can cause stress too.
