So had to take my aunt for her second COVID-19 test today. The doctor is positive she has it. I would agree with the doctor. Because of my exposure to my aunt, I am now in self quarantine within my own home. I am not about to risk my husband or son. Up side, I have nothing to do but read. Yes I was wearing an N95 mask while she was in my car. I‘m not taking any chances though. Two weeks! Yay! Not! Also pictured is my new chair!!

I‘m struggling to focus...anyone else? I want to read. I just keep losing my place....

Leftcoastzen Yes, I‘m struggling too. I think we are just to worried and on edge. 5y
CoverToCoverGirl 🙋🏼‍♀️ 5y
Kenyazero It won‘t make you less worried or on edge, but have you considered more visual book genres like comics? I‘d be interested to know if they were easier or the same level of difficult to focus on right now. 5y

Prairiegirl_reading 🙋🏻‍♀️💯 reading is just not happening for me. 5y
umbrellagirl Yes, me. I feel like I‘m home so much that I should be reading loads but I‘m just not. I‘m definitely having trouble concentrating and I find I‘m watching TV (having it on at least) more often. I‘m just trying to go with it. 5y
BiblioLitten This started about a week back that I couldn‘t focus. I‘m trying to let it pass. 5y
Sungirl79 I am right there with you!! I am having a hard time focusing!! I have so many good books to read too! 😫 5y
Koffeejazzandbooks I really thought it was just me, since I‘ve been home I‘ve been reading less 😕 5y
JamieArc Me me me. And I‘m so sad because Dewey‘s readathon is one of my favorite things, but the thought of a day of reading in my house is not appealing at all to me right now. 5y
readordierachel Same. It's so hard to concentrate. 5y
Chrissyreadit @Kenyazero thanks for the suggestion! At this moment it does not seem to matter. I‘m doing better with audio but there‘s often conflicting noises in the house so I can only focus when it‘s quiet. I‘m wearing a headset all day for work and need breaks from it. 5y
LibrarianRyan So have that problem. Don‘t want to do social media. Don‘t want to read. I am getting a lot of sewing done though. 5y
Chrissyreadit @LibrarianRyan yay for sewing! I‘m crocheting a blanket and binge watching The mentalist for the most part. I‘m not technically bothered by the pandemic though, I think my brain just won‘t settle because there is so much going on even when I‘m home. 5y
