I have to say that my life and habits have not changed much at all. I still went to work, did our shopping, and to be honest, social distancing was kind of my life style before,so it was not a hardship. Indeed, it was nice to have people being ORDERED to stay 6 feet away from me. I have always enjoyed being at home and large (or even small) events never held any appeal for me. The only thing that was kind of sad was the pared back holidays without the family gatherings as I LOVE the holidays. I wonder if the individual family groups would prefer to keep it that way for here on out.. it did seems easier for everyone just to be at home with spouses and kids and thats it.. I try to make the best of everything.When all this is completely over and we go back to normal, the only thing I can think if is if I get sick, I will likely wear a mask in public to avoid spreading it. This is standard etiquette in many Asian countries and it makes sense. Its just common courtesy and I dont know why it hasn't been a thing before. I have some very cute holiday and everyday masks that I enjoyed rocking during this time. I will hold on to those just in case.

Negative - continuing to dislike wearing a mask...

Positive - continuing to take my summer vacation as I did last year.

I'll keep doing curbside pickup for groceries. I actually already used it sometimes before covid. The shoppers at the store I go to are great! I'm also hoping curbside pickup stays at some other places that didn't have it before. It saves time and money, since I don't make any impulse buys. Other than that, I'm kind of a homebody anyway.

Right now I am still continuing to buy more things on line, but that is largely to avoid L.A. traffic. It might be a while before I want to be as adventurous in shopping as I used to be. I'll go to stores if I am sure that they will have what I want, but if I am not certain, then I am likely to buy on line. This is not the case with shoes and with certain sewing supplies, especially threads.

I will continue to avoid touching my face and washing my hands after touching most anything.

I've found I like jigsaw puzzles so I will keep doing them -- that's for fun. DH no longer laughs at me for having at least 12 rolls of TP for each bathroom. I'm going to always have cloth and paper masks on hand; hopefully not necessary for every day but for cold and flu season. And I'll wash my hands thoroughly after coming home from public places.

I will, continue to keep, hand sanitizer in my car and use it every time I get back in the car. I do dislike wearing a mask. Of course, I do wear it but look forward to the day when we can chuck them.

My life has been much more effected by things other than the virus.

The big change for me was switching horse riding disciplines when Covid lockdown forced my old coach to lose her business. it was emotionally tough to move on. But I do believe I found my niche. Even during the lockdowns. I love it here and it's my family away from family. So I am staying put.

I think I mentioned before I miss the spontaneity of being able to shop when I want and go out to eat where and when I want. I've found shopping during this time to be the greater annoyance. I really don't miss eating out all that much and I will probably continue to eat at home more.

I wish it was cool enough in this area to keep hand sanitizer in the car. I did it once last summer and burnt my hand. Afterward I saw warnings that it could become hot enough to explode with a resulting fire. I switched to wipes although I never felt like they really cleaned.

When paper napkins were hard to find in stores I switched to cloth.

Probably will keep wearing a face mask when I am sick. Stocking up on things like toilet paper, kleenex and other things. I like having a little built up supply in my house and not having to run here and there all the time. Just go in a closet and pull out what I need.

Yeah, I’ll continue to where the mask. I’m happy staying home, that didn’t change with covid. I purchased a 1 year subscription for grocery shopping but I’m not sure if I’ll renew it.

I'm not sure if I'll continue the food pick up. I hate paying any extra money if I can help it.

Yes to wearing a face mask. I know that I will feel very awkward since I will probably be the only one. But every time I hear someone sneeze across the store or cough I am so glad I have my face masks with 2 filters on!

I'd like to continue walking my dogs as often as I have been able to now. With work I am stretched pretty thin and I'm too tired often so my son walks them.

A lot of things before covid I’ll continue to do-sanitizer in the car, paper goods stocked up.

Things I started doing during the pandemic that I’ll continue-curbside pick ups, at least sometimes. It’s free and convenient , at least for busy weeks. I quit the gym and I’m not ready to go back, but I might not go back. Instead I walk 3 miles a day, then do exercises in the pool. I started ripping up old towels for cleaning rags in place of some paper towels. It’s working well.

I started hiking the Appalachian trail almost 14 months ago, the day our gym closed. I do it every day and haven't gone back to the gym. I've met some nice people there and my dog loves the daily adventure.

I really can't think of anything I do different than before to continue. I have always washed my hands first thing when I got into the house. Always did have extra supplies on hand. I still do my own shopping, visit friend and family or have them over, still go out to eat, still take my grandkids places, etc basically every thing I did in previous years.

Just staying home and keeping busy.

Me too nickel! I've always liked jigsaw puzzles, but it's become a regular habit.

I've enjoyed the home improvement projects actually getting done. We're still in a housing boom here. Within six months, my house value will have doubled. In six years. I'm preparing to sell within five-ten years. I'll make my goal for retirement housing if I finish all outstanding projects. Now if I can just secure a driverless car...

Definitely will continue with grocery delivery. Never enjoyed grocery shopping. Taught myself to crochet , thanks to folks here and utube. Knitted for years and crochet has brought me so much joy.. We started dancing again as part of our exercise. Our dance skills had gotten a little rusty. of course our dance floor is the front room in our home. At 82 , we are learning new ways to live .

I called my old gym. They still require you to wear a mask during yoga class. I'm OUT! No gym. No yoga. I'm not motivated to do it unless I get a neck massage with lavender oil at the end....yeah....it was awesome....

Ordering groceries on line! I love it. Because I hate to grocery shop. I do go in between for fresh veggies and such. Can't wait for summer when I can get all my veggies at the road side stands.

I will keep up my grocery deliveries - such a huge time saver. I'll go to the market on my lunch hour for fresh produce if need be. I've always bought paper goods on sale so I had a bit of a stockpile - I'll continue that for sure.

I definitely appreciate my family more with having to cancel all of our holiday gatherings last year. Already have a family cookout planned for Mother's Day. : )

Other than losing my job, my life hasn't changed at all. My life used to consist of:

wake up

go to work

come home

eat supper

watch tv

go to bed

repeat....

Now the only thing missing is go to work. I shop the same stores, I've never had grocery delivery. I prefer to pick out my own food from the shelves. My kids do use it though. If it wasn't for grocery shopping, I would hardly ever leave the house and I can't stand being inside all day.

I started using Chewy for home delivery. I love it, and will continue to use them. I'm considering wearing face mask during normal flu season. We get some pretty nasty winters, in Indiana, so I had always stocked up.

I'm fully vaccinated and just this past weekend went out to dinner for the first time in over a year. It was a little stressful but I felt safe enough as the staff was masked and the guests were spread way more than 6 ft apart.

I will continue to take most precautious I've been doing. Mostly because there's still a huge percentage of the population who refuses to be vaccinated and I have my doubts we will ever reach herd immunity levels due to selfishness. In my county there are so many open vaccine spots because no one takes them. We have the highest covid rate and lowest vaccination rate in the state! I can't wait to move.

No, I never did much of anything differently, and still don't- except wear a mask, and I will be continuing that for a while since infection and hospitalization rates around here are still surging (even though I am vaccinated, I don't want to be part of the 5%.) After many years experience of wearing masks, sometimes for several hours at a time, at work, I don't find wearing one in a store at all burdensome.

I have been buying TP by case, 96 rolls in a case, I normally order 2-4 cases each time, so I don't have to order for a long while. And have a box of face masks, hand wipes in every car we have.

I always liked to have adequate provisions, but the having a few extra will definitely be part of my way. The thing that will definitely keep up is the walking. I walked before, but not as diligently and I do find it's incredibly beneficial for my emotional state. I wish all the walking would show up in reduced weight, but oh well.

salonva, muscle weighs more than fat ... so maybe you're converting fat to muscle :-)

"I have been buying TP by case, 96 rolls in a case, I normally order 2-4 cases each time"

May I ask, how many people live in your household? Unless these are small single rolls, this sounds like a lot of TP.

I'll definitely keep up the curbside grocery pickups. It's been so nice to be able to avoid fluorescent lights, for one thing. However, I can see myself picking out my own produce, especially when farm markets open up.

I got a Walmart Capital One credit card last year to earn 5% back on any purchases made through through Walmart.com, and that includes picked up groceries. I've also been ordering cat food and certain other items to be delivered to my house, and I'll continue doing that.

I learned to Zoom during the pandemic, and it would be fun to keep that up as a way of connecting occasionally with friends and family. Plus my long-time Russian pen pals want to Skype with me, so I'll be trying that next.

I'll continue to learn watercolor painting online. I completed one Domestika course and am about to start on another--this one entirely different from the first. Looking forward to it.

I'm like Debby but instead of tv I read or

Elmer, They are small rolls (2ply). two of us, kids come back once in a while, DS mainly stays at our weekend country place working from home. 5 baths each house. Yes, a lot of TP supplies, I don’t have to order any for a year. Lol

I started outdoor "happy hours" at the gazebo at the end of my pond, and have been continuing them even now that nearly everyone in the group is vaccinated.

I thought of something else. I've been cutting my own hair for well over a year. I bought a pair of hair scissors and watched some YouTube videos, and I've come to enjoy the process. I have enough good hair days to be pleased with myself. It's possible I'll feel differently about this when I start getting out and seeing people again, but right now I'm thinking I'll take care of at least 50% of my own haircuts from now on.
