I'm now home more. But I miss my activities. One activity has just started to be resumed. Once a week so far. 2 weeks. No masks. We have been fully vaccinated in March. Room has open windows & is large and airy.

Closer. It’s make or break and I’m not breaking.

We have always been close.

We talk more & realize that life is so fragile. The little annoyances just don't matter as much.

You should have a "neither" option. Hubby and I both continued working as usual (if not more) as we are both 1st-responders. So our lives/routines have not changed. I'm sure this is true for several others out there as well.

My husband is out of work right now and I work at home. We get to spend a lot of extra time together. Him being home has allowed him to help with house work and that makes me very happy.

We have both recently retired, so spending more time together was for us already in the cards. We find plenty to do, being fortunate to live at the tip of lower Michigan where there is plenty of open space between people, ready made social distance.

We rdon't have a typical relationship but I think we are closer. We both have our own lives but we both are tying to be more aware of what each of us really wants during this difficult time. If you asked her, I have no doubt she'd agree.

Unfortunately I've been diagnosed with bladder cancer during this pandemic. It has brought my husband and I even closer. We live in each moment. I am almost done chemo, will have my bladder removed and looking forward to a long future together.

Because it's true..

Closer. It’s brought us back to the basics. It’s only eachother that matters. Quiet. Patient.
