Who have you been in quarantine with? I know that ends in a preposition, BTW. I was quarantined with my husband and three cats. I know, youāve seen plenty of their pictures on this site. Now, my question is, have you been quarantined with someone you never knew lived with you? A ghost maybe? Speaking […]
