Husband and I are both working. It's doubly good because it keeps money coming in and keeps us occupied and not scrolling through horrible news all the time.
We have a decent emergency fund.
We know how to cook and enjoy doing it.
Modern technology is amazing. In the last week, I've done a video chat with my little niece and nephew, talked via Wi-Fi call with a dear old friend, exchanged cat photos and encouraging texts with another friend, and had a Zoom meeting for one of my volunteer orgs. My cousin was able to have a Skype call with her mom, who lives in a nursing home that is closed to visitors.
Our family and friends are all healthy, so far.

Where I live in South Africa, we have just started a 21 day lockdown. I'm still working from home, so no change there.

DW usually keeps enough supplies to see us through the zombie apocalyse, we won't starve. I have enough wine in my cellar to last a really long time. :-)
