In mid-March when COVID-19 hit, our lives changed overnight. Many were thankful for the family time that we were all gifted with, but now after months and months of together time we may be ready for some alone time. It is normal to get frustrated when being around the same people for so long. By now, some activities have returned to a (new) normal, but others still are not an option. Use this time to stay connected with your family in fun activities. Break up the mundane and have fun with your family!
