Life Changed a Lot After the Pandemic of 2019
Filed under: 
IT will soon be 7 years since COVID-19 began. It’s hard for me to grasp or get around the fact that 7 years ago we had the party which preceded the pandemic and it was only 3 years after “Pep” began at ManCity. Sense of time seems to have been warped somewhat.
Years ago I kept track of excess deaths in the UK. Maybe that has improved, maybe not. I no longer keep track of it; it has been years since I last checked. I moved on. I do other things.
The gym shut down in 2020 and a year later we altogether stopped going there (after 20 years in that gym, for me at least) despite it still being open. Life has changed so much not due to the pandemic per se but factors that changed at that time.
