Listen Later

Our lives have definitely changed during this pandemic. In some respects, we are lucky that technology was ready to help us manage our lives while avoiding human contact as best we could.  We can order groceries online, we can order meals online, we can stream movies and old TV sitcoms, we can have Zoom happy hours with long time friends, we can play Bridge online, and we can even visit with our doctors using software and mobile devices.
