    Default What aren't you missing??!

    This may be a bit harder, and I don't have my own answer yet, but thought it was an interesting question.

    I am a recluse anyway. I make friends with care so I don't have many of them. With my few good things I sometimes see I hate having to go through this 6' away thing. What I miss most are hugs from my friends. Blowing a kiss is not the same.

    I am not missing traffic anywhere I go .
    Driving to what ever necessary function is actually pleasant and the roads seem to fit the volume for once ..
    I do not miss crowds where ever I end up be it work or public like food shopping or post office.
    I don't miss seeing cars driving on the road from my house after 11pm and before 5am..It is just much nicer and quieter all around lately .
    It seems kind of nice and mistakenly safe to look out at 2 am and see no cars on the roads..No wondering why they are out or where they are coming from ?

    Stopping at the gas pump to fill up my truck twice a week.

    Also somehow I feel like the amount of contact through technology has actually gone down with my work. I don't feel tied to the device which is very weird because that's all we use right now.

    I also don't miss my dress shoes or wearing nice clothes.

    Also I don't miss my Razor. Hell, I don't even think my wife has realized I haven't been using my deodorant. I have to put a daily reminder that goes off at noon that reminds me if I have not brush my teeth yet.

    Actually don't miss thoilet paper because handheld shower attachment is amazing!

    At my age, everything is irritating.

    I miss going for walks other than the streets. We are not allowed in the wood trails or parks of any kind, just allowed to walk around the neighbourhood. Folks are getting heavy fines who break the new rules. Only one per family in any establishment for food or any store. I certainly don't miss being a nurse at this time; they have a big out break where I used to work. It's really bad up here in Canada in long term care homes, especially the private ones due to low pay and those here on work visa from out of county. They just take off. It is impossible to isolate in those homes and being low in PPE gear some workers are having second thoughts about even being there. Also, miss hugging and kissing
