Covid 19

How are you guys holding up? Anyone get it, or know somebody who has. How's your workload been effected?

I have left the house precisely once since March 13th. I have zero problem with being locked down lol
I have a minion who is prepared to get food once in a while and she also gets good delivery slots from a supermarket, so all good
Minions are cool.
Work-wise, I have had a couple of jobs so that kept me busy-ish. Plus I started a bit of a punt project, the results of which I'll post in the next couple of days.
That took a big chunk of time and hopefully will pay off.
I'm in the UK, so unexpectedly the tax peeps gave me a few grand due to perceived lost earnings, with more to come I believe, so that's cool

I don't know anyone who has contracted this as yet, though everyone I know is mostly sensible and smart enough not to risk unecessarily.
My neighbour is a nurse and is so far safe, though I do worry about her and by extension me, so social distancing is a priority until spring of 2030 or thereabouts - should have some sort of vaccine by then

I'm pretty fortunate in that I have a comfortable home office space and fiber - working hasn't been too bad. I alternate between 3 remote desktop methods whenever one starts to hiccup.
collaborating has been slower - I'm working longer hours to get the same amount done. A few jobs for public institutions fell through but all the 1yr+ out residential work is still steaming ahead. First few weeks everyone was holding their breath to see what happened but everyone's just getting on with it now.
Had to reschedule my wedding and have a summer trip I'm hoping to get a refund on the flights of.
I know a few people who've had it - someone lost their father after a battle in the ICU. Pretty much exclusively people I know from the UK, I don't know anyone in America who's had it.
