We’ve all had to make unexpected choices during COVID-19. Should you go to a restaurant? Your parents’ house? What about taking your kids to their favorite theme park when it opens? Sometimes, these choices are informed by restrictions–for example, not being able to go to a concert because it’s been cancelled due to limitations on large gatherings. Other times, we make choices based on how comfortable we feel, both physically and mentally. One thing that isn’t a choice during COVID-19, however, is buying groceries.

If you’re working from home during COVID-19, it may be tough to separate the “home” part of home office. This is especially true if you’ve got roommates. Even more so if you’re all working from home. On top of your already busy workload, suddenly you’re also dealing with your roommate blending a smoothie while you’re writing a report or walking around in the background of your Zoom meeting (extra awkward if they’ve just taken a shower and are in a towel).

7 Dallas Fort Worth Restaurants Offering Takeout During COVID-19 In late April, Texas Gov. Greg Abbott announced that some businesses, including restaurants and malls, could begin reopening with strict guidelines in place. Currently, Lone Star restaurants are allowed to offer dine-in services while following strict guidelines. These include limiting capacity to 50 percent, only allowing six or fewer patrons to a table, keeping groups of diners at least six feet apart, utilizing disposable menus, and disinfecting surfaces more frequently. Side note: Sorry margarita lovers; bars aren’t part of this early reopening stage.

While COVID-19 related closures and safety measures might be making it hard to hang out on a bar patio with a cocktail, it’s still very possible to enjoy that same level of mixology in the comfort of your own home while practicing social distancing. During the COVID-19 crisis, Texas restaurants are permitted to offer cocktail kits, beer, and wine to-go and via delivery. Alcohol must be purchased along with food, so as long as you add some queso and chips to your order, you’re good to go.

When day 60 of quarantine starts to feel like day 6,000 of quarantine, you might find yourself looking for ways to stay busy and productive.

Whether working from home is the new normal for you or it’s long been a part of your professional routine, it seems like telecommuting is going to be a big part of life going forward. That’s where technology comes in. With the right technology hacks, you can make your home office as productive as an actual office.
