How are you staying in touch with people?

It's been a little more difficult than usual being social. How's that going for you, and what kind of conversations are you missing having?

A couple of Zoom get togethers each week with different sets of friends, and some whatsapping. Plus occasional phone calls with a friend in Aussie. I've mostly worked from home for a while, but I miss the intermittent face to face contact with work friends I used to have. But I just left that job right before our lockdown happened, so that would have ended anyway. I mostly miss my cat Possum TBH, who I lost several months ago (he was 18). I'll get another cat friend, but not until this has eased a bit.

I'm sorry you lost your cat friend. This seems like a difficult time to be without fuzzy companionship, but equally a hard time to find new companions.

Intermittent face-to-face contact is something I'm missing more than I thought I would, considering how much time I have previously spent at home. But the part where it's simply not an option weighs on me.
