Has the pandemic changed you?

I use to be a get up and go type of person. Then the pandemic hit us. First it was the lockdowns. Then stores just were not open. When they finally did open I was scared of getting the disease so I stayed away. I started sitting home more and streaming TV. Now two and a half years later I just want to sit in my recliner. No need to do whatever today. I'll get to that tomorrow or the next day. I never use to be like this.

Currently I need to clean the interior of the RV. We live in hurricane ally and September is the most active month of hurricane season. Whenever they have one forecasted to hit us we load the RV and leave town. Sadly my wife has had some health issues and we haven't used the RV since last October. Normally we take the RV out a couple of times a month so the interior gets cleaned regularly, but not this past year. The exterior has been washed and waxed. The chassis has been serviced. Now I just need to do the interior. For some reason I have been putting it off for a couple of weeks now. I seem to have lost my get up and go since the pandemic. Has this happened to anyone else?

Not really for me. It might have more, but I actually had to trade my work from home job for a public job that put me right in front of hundreds a day. Masking and sanitizing and basic common sense proved themselves to me so I didn’t get a chance to get too afraid. Worked out for the best I think. Still, I know how hard it can be to get oneself out of a rut! Maybe try drawing up a schedule for yourself to follow that gradually ramps up more activity until you feel more like your old self? Instead of tackling the whole RV in one day and struggling to find the motivation, it might work better if you just picked one part of the project to do at a time. If you set your mind to it, I’m sure you can overcome the slump. 🤗🤗🤗
