I have twice now attempted grooming my three dogs.  I had always been the one to bathe them but I bought a grooming table and clippers and have done a passable job though some areas need refining.  This wasn't totally due to the pandemic as our groomer was incapacitated due to an auto accident.

I started shopping for groceries online.  There have been a couple hiccups along the way but overall I like it and will probably continue grocery shopping this way as I always saw it as a hated chore.

So far, I am not desperate enough to try to cut my own hair.  I have had my hair cut once since the December before all this started.  Luckily, I am used to my hair being long...it's just a little ragged and could use a professional trim.

Sewing masks led to making quilts and now I am making quilted placemats.  But that's more a hobby than a necessity. 

What have you done?  What did you start doing because you were home anyway and had the time?

I learned that approximately half of Americans are scientifically illiterate morons.

And that is just the half that can be taught.
