In some respects ours didn’t change very much. Keep chugging along.

"In some respects ours didn’t change very much."

My life didn't change other than wearing a mask to the grocery store once a week, and when I had a doctor's appointment. I've been social distancing by choice since I retired in 2003. I still visited my kids. Spent two weeks each summer at my youngest sons in Indiana. Stayed in hotels, ate out at restaurants, had my teeth cleaned every six months, had medical procedures done.

The only thing that I actually stopped doing was meeting my friends at the local casino once a month, which was fine with me. I managed to save an extra $100 a month because of that. Didn't miss it at all. The main enjoyment was the buffet, which hasn't been started up again. I met them last week for the first time since March 2020, only because they stopped requiring people to wear masks. I'm not vaccinated. The food at the restaurant we ate at was a big disappointment, and I left within an hour or so, and brought my money home with me. I may meet them periodically for lunch in the future, but it won't be every month, and I won't be playing the slot machines any more.
