When the pandemic started, it was very different from normal times. We had to start waiting outside markets to go in because we had to have a certain amount of people in there. I usually go to markets such as Gelsons, Trader Joe's, Ralph's, and Vons, which all had lines. We always had to wear masks wherever we went, expect at home, exercising and while driving. At the beginning of the pandemic, we wore gloves used a bunch of sanitizer or rubbing alcohol and we still do. If we want to hang out with friends or anyone outside our household, we have to be outside and 6 feet apart, which is kind of a bummer. My feelings of all of this, 9 months in, is that I think that these precautions are necessary for us to be safe, but can be annoying some of the time. I think that restrictions have eased now despite the rise in cases.
