I think the lockdowns will be regarded as the biggest mistake in history. Just look at how our society is crumbling & how hate filled we’ve become. Ugh.


I agree with you!!!!!

I cut my own hair. Terrible, terrible idea. I am beyond upset about it and am finding it hard to remember that it'll grow out.

I have the guest room tricked out and decorated exactly how I want it, it's clean and pretty, and it's my sanctuary. DH and I hang out and watch tv in the living room or in the master bedroom until I'm ready to go to sleep and then I head on over to my room. At first I was worried that it would impact our relationship negatively but it hasn't at all.


Do your kids notice or think it’s weird? When do you have sex?


They do notice but we've told them that Dad snores and Mom has trouble sleeping, so they seem to get it. We have sex in the hours that we're hanging out after the kids go to bed but before we go to sleep, just like we would if we were sleeping in the same bed. Occasionally he'll come over in the middle of the night to my bed- that is always kind of hot.

My confession: I have lived my life like there was no pandemic going on, and I do not understand those of you who comply with rules. Sucks to be with the majority. Better to walk alone and break all the rules. You'll have more fun.

DH and I haven’t had sex in months and I’m kind of ok with that. He seems to be too since he’s never brought it up. And before anyone says he’s getting it elsewhere, he’s not, because he never leaves the house.

She uses 10 bath towels a week and expects them to be laundered 3 times a week. I’ve decided that is excessive, so now I only wash them once a week. I just put them in the dryer and put them away.

When she leaves her dishes in the sink, I just rinse with water and put them away. I no longer use soap for anything, unless it’s a dish I used. I figure if she wanted clean dishes, she should do them herself.

She expects me to cook all family meals (no extra pay of course), so now I use extra oil, butter and cream in my recipes. I don’t drain the fat for meat. She loves my cooking lol.

The love the kids, so for them I stay. But I’m tired of working for entitled people who never say thank you. Now i don’t mind the extra unpaid chores, because I made myself a little system where she thinks I’m doing all these chores and I know I’m not. It would be different if she was busy and actually working at home, but she does nothing all day except nap, yoga, and ignore her kids, so I don’t feel bad not helping her.


You need to bring these issue up with your employer. Do you have a contract? What does your contract state? If they want you to do extra chores, you need to renegotiate and get paid more.

I'm the OP of the old pandemic confession thread. My confession is that I still take two hour lunches. Today I took a 3 hour lunch. All my work gets done. I wonder so hard if other people at my law firm are doing this, and I want to ask but can't without giving myself away.

My confession is that things are going pretty well for our family and we’ve made some changes to our lives that we’re happy and excited about. Of course we’re not happy about the pandemic in genera and the 400,000+ deaths in the country and devastation to many people’s livelihoods. And many of my friends are living the “primal scream” existence. This is a confession because I have to keep our happiness a secret so I don’t make others feel bad.
