Already working on excuses for why I can have a social life on weekends, but can’t come into the office during the week 😂

I’m the opposite. Would love to go to the office on weekdays, need excuses for why I don’t want to see people on weekends 🤣

Honestly this is me. My wallet is so happy and I’m not ready to go back
I am honestly loving this lack of FOMO / not having to keep up an image of non-stop social activity and drinks every night.
I am missing friends who've gone back to live with their families and just these random fun get-togethers and evenings though - it's been a bit boring sometimes :(

I’m glad to hear you are working on it. The only thing you have to lose is your own happiness. Life is short - chase it.
I have enjoyed:
1) Not having to travel to a client site every single week. It really is unnecessary as I always knew.
2) Less people about and less traffic when I’m out.
3) 6 Feet of space! People in line were always to close at checkout - I always had to make a comment about personal space!
4) Cleaner air, hearing birds more.
5) More time to work on personal interests
6) More time to talk with friends and family
7) More time to grieve recent deaths in the family
8) Certain family members unable to invite themselves over
9) Time to think deeper about “what’s next?” instead of making a quick line item about it in a goal planner.
10) The money saved!!
The ONLY thing that I have missed during this time is being unable to travel personally. I enjoy solo vacations and to think if I was on a 2-3 month sabbatical to explore other cities and cultures on my travel list... SIGH... would have been perfect.
