The COVID-19 pandemic has changed work/life patterns for many of us. While there are some folks out there on the front lines doing dangerous, essential work and moving around in the world, many of us are locked down at home, doing our part to reduce transmission of the virus.

The home dynamic has changed drastically as well. While some of us have worked from home for years, we’ve historically been a small fringe of the overall workforce. But since the pandemic hit, working from home has become what marketing folks are calling the “new normal.”

Adding to the complexity of our 9-5 home life, many of our kids are home, too. While the debate rages over school reopening, many parents are opting to keep their kids home to study. Many school districts, colleges, and universities have moved to a slapped-together remote schooling strategy.
