Looking back on year of COVID pandemic: โKnow and understand that tomorrow is not promisedโ
I would say to set a schedule for my family and stick to it, because kids need routine in confusing times. I would say this will require all the grace, compassion, patience and self-discipline you have and plenty you donโt have. Know and understand that tomorrow is not promised. Enjoy these precious moments of working from home, spending additional time with family, preparing daily meals, exercising, reflecting on life. We have seen things in this life that have been a first for many of us.

We are asking ClickOnDetroit readers a hypothetical question:If you could go back a year, before the effects of the coronavirus pandemic swept into Michigan in March 2020, what would you tell yourself? And finally, find pleasure in carrying out simple household tasks, because they matter.โ -- Judith MatlockโFirst and foremost, I would tell myself to stock up on toilet paper, Lysol wipes and bread!!! And I would tell myself that 99% of my family and friends didnโt get it and were fine even if they did.โ -- SonyaโYou will save one hour a day not dressing up and driving to work. I am the one who went above and beyond the meaning of โFAMILY,โ and โFRIENDโ should be closer. I am the one who accepted the family members or friends that the rest of the family or other friends did not like.
