It makes me sad longing for a time when I can go visit the shops again and go out more again and go to work everyday without having to feel nervous, not having to wear a mask and worrying about standing or sitting too close to people. The thing is I can still do those things as long as a social distance and I still won't go anywhere apart from my workplace and return home immediately after work. I seem to think the new ''normal'' is frustrating and that I won't be able to cope with it for such a prolonged period of time and that I'll still be in the mindset of going to work and coming straight back home again and still not feel bold enough to venture back to places and shops I enjoyed going to before the crisis.

I kinda semi reached that situation before the lockdown started.

Hang in there. I tend to go into smaller shops when no one much is in there apart from staff.

Probably many if not most people are tired of COVID-19 and its affect on our safety and freedom.
