I get to save a ton of money and time because I don't need to buy Pesach clothes or makeup this year because we are not seeing anyone or leaving the house.

(The fact that I have always been a guest at my parents/in laws -never made Pesach before, and don't own a single pot/dish and didn't have food expenses which I will now have is totally irrelevant 😉)

I think we will save a ton of money on food, because there most likely won’t be any to buy!
I guess we’ll figure out 50 ways to eat a potatoe.

Not seeing my kids all day. They're downstairs taking care of themselves while I'm fevering away in bed. I locked my room and I hear no noise. Lol. Ya see even when I'm sick I'm taking out the good of it.

No joke . Potatoes have been sold in this week in several places . I was joking to my husband people must be hoarding them for Pesach or it doesn't make sense why no one has them for sale .

But they only last so long and you can't really freeze them! I need them fresh for Pesach.

I think that some of these Hispanic stores may have more stuff than the chain stores.

Im being forced to work from home-and although it is difficult to get the work done the same way, it is so so nice to hear my family's voices all day. Its also nice to wear my fuzzy slippers to work.
And I love not really caring whether or not my kids have clothes for yom tov. Like, ok, so if my son's shabbos pants have grown too short on him its totay fine because hello coronavirus...
