On Reddit today there was a question,<strong> "What's something that's secretly been great about the pandemic?</strong>" <strong> The top response was "Not dealing with a commute".</strong> Being at home during the workday means<strong> I can pop a load of laundry in the washer in mid-morning, and hang it on the line during lunchtime.</strong> Here in New Mexico, that usually means I can bring it in at the end of the day and it's dry. <strong>But last week we had a storm that brought snow, hail, and rain to the city for three days.</strong> Normally we would have a snow day and not have to go in to the office. Pandemic work-from-home means we don't have a commute, but we also don't have days off when it snows. <strong> Three days later, the sun came out, the snow melted, and I brought the laundry in off the line.</strong>
