Now 2020-2021 has changed our habitats of not changing out of our pj’s or staying in our sweatpants all afternoon. Which doesn’t sound so bad.

I’ve literally had to move two times during this year, now being three by the end of this month. I know I’m shocked too but all trying to say is this year hast benn hard for most of us
