Thank goodness I don't live in a metro area. The only restrictions we've had are the ones that get applied statewide. We haven't had a single local covid case since last April/May. Still there's plenty of cautious people wearing masks when going out and about. Plenty of travellers and people moving here to get away from Sydney, driving the housing costs way up.
So not much of my routine has changed, still go to work, get groceries, eat out occasionally. I'm merely adhering to social distancing, keeping masks on hand and using that covid-safe QR code check-in whenever I visit anywhere (the govt use it for contact tracing). I guess we can count ourselves very lucky here.
