Whether they be financial, emotional, etc. If you're comfortable, maybe share the state or region you're in? Looking to get my pulse on more human, emotional aspects in relation to the state of the country. Is there a sub for this, already?

I had one of my better years in 2019 even after breaking my foot in the middle of the summer. I was even paid $5/hr extra a few months for working during the beginning of the plandemic. I saved a ton of money not going out but hung out with my friends more often at camp or grilling in the backyard. I rolled my sxs in July and broke my foot which required a screw to fix. I could drive since it was my left foot butI wasn't allowed at work until I was able to wear normal shoes so I got a 100% paid 8 weeks off. The money I saved from not going out so much helped carry me through 6 weeks until short term disability check came. I spent a few weeks on a lounge chair in the driveway drinking all day until friends stopped by after work. I only had a boot on so I could ride my buddy's waverunner and swim after the incision healed. I got out of a unhealthy relationship in the spring and started dating the girl I had a couple year crush on in the fall. I still had normal xmas parties and one of my better NYE. I learned that covid doesn't affect me..I had scheduled test a few weeks ago and was covid positive but I never had symptoms. The health department determined I only needed to quarantine for 10 days from test date which was 3 days before they contacted me. My company requires 14 days quarantine so I got 2 weeks emergency pay but only had to isolate 7 days. My downstairs neighbor had to test and came back positive so we both had someone to hang out with the whole time. I'd say the only thing I lost was the marina and golf courses being closed in the spring. I was not able to get my boat in the water for most of stripper season and never ended up golfing. I work until 11pm but everything closes at 10pm so I do miss grabbing a beer after my last shift.
