I've spent a lot of time with my daughter...


...since we're both home together all day every day. We've always been close, but have bonded even more during this time. Despite the stresses of working from home while trying to help her with schoolwork, I think I'll always look back fondly upon this time with her.

Other than that, I can't really come up with much positive about 2020. Even before the pandemic, the year started off really crappy when our dog died in early January. I've also spent less time with extended family out of precaution, I've rarely done anything "fun", and I'm getting more and more out of shape and eating less healthy while being trapped at home. On a "normal work day", I'd go out to eat and get something healthy like a salad. At home, I don't have time to fix a salad for lunch so I end up eating sandwiches and chips.

I did build a raised garden last spring - not because I had more free time (I've had less) - but because I needed an outdoor project to prevent me from going insane. So I guess there's that.
