7800sqft house with.75acre yard. So happy maybe?

It's a very small apartment, but yes, I'm not complaining. Would be happier in a house with a pool though😂

Yes! Townhouse.

Condo. I think I am putting it on the market next week.

Condo. Love it

Condo for last 10 years. Loved it but now I want my own house.

Condo, 1600 sqft, perfect amount of space for me and my family.

Wife wont let me blast music 😢

Bose headphones? I live alone but actually sometimes prefer listening to music with over-ear headphones vs through speaker.

Yes. Live in 4000 sq ft house with parents, sibling, and boyfriend. We have two rooms (me & bf) so a bedroom and home office. We were planning to move out after next busy season

1500 sq condo, pretty happy with it. Frustrated with birds in my hvac, my hoa doesn’t adequately cover vents on the outside.

Were in a small condo (~750 sq ft) It’s okay for now but we struggle with having enough storage space.

Yes. 900 sqft house in the middle of a big city. The house is great with a little indoor garden and enough space for 2ppl. I do miss nature.

Yes! 1400 sq ft townhouse. 3 bed 3 bath, no kids, so we have a home office. 3rd year living here and hoping to buy a house in a few years

Yes. 2500 sq foot house on 3.5 heavily wooded acres.

Would prefer the house to be on something more like 40+ acres with a moat around it 😆

Apartment-yes love it. Wise decision that i didnt move to the city

Seems a little too small now that my family is spending all of our time here. I chose it for a short commute to the city which came with the tradeoff of less space. Now I have nowhere to go but still have the small space and lots of other people closer than I'd like them to be. I am happy its a standalone house where I don't have shared surfaces like outer doors and elevators to touch though.

No.

Hi fellow dog lovers - Sorry to bring up this topic🙈 but just realized I have no idea how to handle the inevitable. My fur baby is 16 yrs old (small breed) and in great health but is noticeably aging. I am thinking ahead even though I don't want to. Is there any unique way to bury a pet? I have never had a pet this long or had one pass so I am not sure what I would do. I was thinking of burying in the back yard but I know we may move in the next year or so. How have you lovingly said goodbye?

His workload is super light (government job). Whenever I suggest doing a new covid activity all I get back is “nah, I don’t feel like doing that now”. Airbnb has online experiences, there are online museum tours, language learning, etc he doesn’t want to do any of it. But then complains he’s bored.

Looking for some actual information and respectful discoursed, not anecdotal stories or whataboutism, please.

With the high transmission rate of the Omicron variant, what is the likelihood of achieving some semblance of herd immunity? The very real & dark prospect of another 250,000 deaths by April 1st (15MM infections w/ 1.62% mortality) would mean a 30% increase in cases, which is realistic with a R0 value exceeding measles. So with the additional cases + 60% vaccinated, will it just die off?
