Welcome back! I probably missed you the first time because I've only been on these forums for a year or two now. Was so glad I found this site, all of my old Y2K era sites were closed down or radically different -- I guess things like that happen if you leave for 20 years.
I'm waving from a safe personal distance away from the greater Seattle area. I was in a pretty bad funk at first but have adjusted and recognized that as a reader, quilter, and granny video gamer my life was already pretty well socially isolated. Except through pixels and print anyway. I've read a lot of fantasy and science fiction over the years. I have vision issues now and listen rather than actually read, some of that doesn't translate as well to audio as you would think (I have a particular pet peeve about long stupid names...). The really nice thing about listening to books is I can sew and read at the same time!
And yes, we love pictures!
