Some of us sat in our homes because everything was closed. I had actually longed to be able to work from home throughout my entire career, fighting hateful traffic, balancing making a living with raising kids, giving my all to give them a quality life, living on 4 hours per night sleep. For years I longed only for time and breathing space to write and do art. I also dreamed of living in the mountains. Suddenly one day, shortly after my kids were grown, I suddenly found myself working from home and have done so ever since.

The company tried to get workers to come back to the office. They set ultimatums, they cajoled, they threatened—and the workers simply….didn’t. It’s a software company and the developers got comfy not driving to the office. The young ones with pandemic babies literally couldn’t imagine going somewhere else to do stuff they already did at home and having to pay someone else to watch their kids.

My artwork is developing nicely. My husband got a job that enabled him to work from home too. In Sept 2020 we sold our house just as house prices soared. We bought a very old house in a rural mountain area. There was literally nowhere to go except the grocery store.

I am only sorry my wishes came true at such a cost of suffering to the world and from so evil a source. In my case, what they wished for evil, God used for good. I noticed that they could never have staged a pandemic without Zoom. In 2020 it seems like Zoom tech had only recently reached a mature enough stage to be accessible to the masses. Otherwise, I think we’d have had a “life threatening” pandemic sooner than 2020.
