Our co-founder MerrillStubbs' ultimate guide to quarantine.
Like much of the world, I’ve been in isolation for weeks with my family. My husband goes grocery shopping every Monday evening ; we do a contactless pickup from a local restaurant every Thursday night, and we’ve yell-chatted from fifty feet away with some friends who live nearby. Otherwise, we’ve had almost no contact with others.
I’ve spent a good portion of every day feeling very thankful, and incredibly lucky. So many lives have been lost, and many many more turned upside down, because of COVID-19, while the biggest challenges I've faced have been adjusting to working from home, overseeing my kids' virtual learning, and deciding what to make for dinner.
In the moments when guilt starts to creep into my consciousness, I try to remind myself that it’s unproductive even when things are great, let alone during a crisis. Any time I spend wallowing is wasted time. My job is to take care of my family, a business I believe is actually helping people, and others who are suffering far more than I am.One thing is certain: I could not do that job right now if it weren’t for the wisdom and creativity of other people.
Regardless of reopening timelines, it’s likely we’ll all be spending a lot more time at home for the foreseeable future. In the spirit of paying it forward, I thought I’d share some of the things we’ve been doing in hopes they might be helpful to someone else.get food on the table. I’ve been taking a lot more photos than usual so that we never forget this time—as precious as it is painful—and I’ll share some of them here.
