with other people, and I have the place to myself. There is some foot traffic on the sidewalk in front (people walking dogs, mostly) but that's far away enough from the front door to be completely safe. I wouldn't want to live in a building where I had to share an elevator; that must be a difficult situation.

My heart really goes out to those in such close quarters. Even without a pandemic, crowded public housing/group homes are hard to get away from others.

I get pissed at my urban "neighbors" who protest in front of the governor's mansion without masks or regard to social distancing.

The more I sit here, the more I realize my privilege. So many people have to go to a job. So many can’t pay rent or buy food because their job went away. People are working in grocery stores so I can have food. Others are shopping for me and delivering food. They should be able to stay safe, too.

Ty for sharing. Im a loner so its easy for me as well. Im also lucky to have room to roam.

I just feel terrible for the people who live in confined spaces.

on all four sides between houses (our backyards are deep, though--we basically live in a forest). We have yards, though, and javelina, bunnies, raccoons and coyote frequently visiting (and the occasional elk), and nice, quiet neighbors.

working outside a lot, ...not going to town

my partner is immunity compromised and I do all I can to protect him

is not being able to visit kids and grandkids.

I took some potted plants where they can see the flowers. They're both on oxygen and cannot take even the slightest risk of gettiing infected.

I havent hugged my grandmother in a month. This is hard.

social distancing is a way of life for me.

I'm in a duplex and have my own small backyard, but I'm only 15 feet away from my slider to their slider (non attached neighbor, common fence). We're almost never outside at the same time. My directly connected neighbor is even further away and he's never in his backyard. Small units, so mostly singles/small families here. I feel pretty safe, even though I'm in a hotspot.

My grandmother said the same for my grandfather. Made me chuckle

Theyre confined at home and I miss them dearly.

Seemingly impossible at places like Kroger.

Downstairs apartment , upstairs neighbors who own a restaurant in town so only home late at night (when I like knowing someone else is in the building). I live on an island so I’m a few feet from both the ocean and the bay, and there are a couple of parks open where I can walk or jog or just sit and look at the birds. Or I can go for a dip in the ocean, or just walk around the neighborhood because the weather right now is absolutely gorgeous. Usually this time of the year there are so many Tourists that we can’t even get on the road, but the roads are empty because they have lack down our islands from travelers. Most of our restaurants are open for takeout and are doing a pretty good business. My family lives in town so once a week I go and sit in their backyard quite a few feet from each other and we each have our own bottle of wine. Same with three of my friends who I met at the park Once or twice a week with the same rules. My daughter grocery shops for me so that I don’t have to worry or rather they don’t have to worry about me which is my main concern. I have a huge TV and all the stations to watch any movie that I like, and I have the technology to talk or seeOnline my other kids and grandchildren in other states. So my cup runneth over. Sorry for any typos, my phone is acting up. I think she needs a little rest, LOL.

it's amazing how you can go in and out every day and never even run into anyone. maybe in the laundry room. I've lived here for years and don't even recognize most of my neighbors.

But they're very deer to me.

I love to have them for dinner, as they have excellent taste

Just about the only nice thing about having numerous right wing gun nuts in the family is they will come over, thin out the local population of a certain wildlife pest, and give me pounds and pounds of delicious meat to thank me for the privilege.

There are no homes to the east of me and to the west there is empty lot and my neighbors to the north and south are about 120' or more away from me.

And teach high school, which means that most of my colleagues that know me think I'm insane. For the rest I've developed a fake-outgoing persona. It cracks sometimes, but it's in place enough to fool the kids and many colleagues. It was my project as a teenager, learn to at least act sort of like a normal human.

My persona's hanging in the closet, for the most part. So it's like an early summer vacation. Distance learning doesn't take the same amount of time as repeating things in class. So I have time to spend on computer, on instrument, on the stack o' reading (allocated unequally between science, languages, social sciences/religion/music).

Always wanted to read Doctor Zhivago (Доктор Живаго, actually) so I started that yesterday.

Which seems better than shelters right now. Word on the street here is that a couple of shelters seems not to understand that when one is in isolation they don't have dinner with everyone, really shouldn't really be around anyone at any time at all.
And now they want to, according to the word on the street, they are trying to put homeless in a type of lockdown in hotels and motels across Tucson

with how loud you scream “stay home” at people out walking/biking/jogging.

About 900sq ft condo here. 2 bedrooms, 2 baths. Me, husband, father in law, 3 kids under 10, and 1 cat. No yard or green space.
