Five months

Jul 21, 2020 14:40

That's how long I've been working from home.

If you'd told me that I would still be working at home come July I don't think I would have believed you? Perhaps I should have but I don't remember actually expecting this to go on for so long back at the time. I think I expected we'd be at home for a month or two and then back to normal.

That being said, I am relieved that my company has chosen to go this route. So far only those who would benefit a lot from being in the office have gone back, other than that everyone who can work from home is still doing just that.

Given that BC has recently had a small spike in cases again, I'm not upset about that, really. Sometimes I catch myself getting a bit slack and I have to remind myself that the virus hasn't disappeared, and I *am* just as concerned about getting it as I was a few months ago.

I do miss my friends, though, and some days I feel distinctly sloth-like. I'm an introvert by nature and this has definitely played into those tendencies.

I've been catching up on my reading recently, though! For awhile I was watching a lot of tv but now I have switched to reading. I'm doing the Reading Rush this week, hoping to finish The Book Thief, The Secret Garden and A Darker Shade Of Magic. Maybe I will do an update at the end of the week on how it went! There are
