I have an autoimmune disease, so I feel for you. I'm also somewhat agoraphobic so it's usually not a problem, but even I want to get out. I had to get my daughter new pants because she's going back to school in person tomorrow. I spent less than 20 total finding her two pairs that suit her.
I'm sorry about that. I'm also on an immune suppressant. Thankfully the new medication I'm taking has taken care of so much of my pain that I was able to drop another that I was taking (which I was taking both at the same time for several months, making me even more immuno suppressed!)
My displays are rather full. I found a gorgeous oversize bookshelf that I want so badly for my in box ponies. <drooling> I have an odd obsession with shelves and storage.
When I get another job I plan on getting some cute shelves for my ponies! I'm so excited! (until recently I hid my interest in MLPs from my parents because I thought they'd think me ridiculously childish, but somehow they're all fine with it)
There were a couple of years I couldn't leave home by myself, so I know a little about how much that can suck. One of the few good things about the pandemic is that employers are going to be more open to remote work from now on.
Those two are gorgeous, I can see why they're on your short list!
I know, work from home would be perfect for me... The problem is that I'm in between jobs. Before the pandemic, I worked as a stocker at a grocery store, which is not a job that can be done remotely. But I was also planning on quitting that job even before the pandemic because it was hurting me so bad to be on my feet all of the time. I had plans to find a new job where I sit down, but none of my applications got me called back. At the beginning of the pandemic while I was still working a little, I found out about my arthritis/immune disorders and that was why I was having my issues (I had the pain for a couple of years before, and nothing I was getting treated for - including surgery - was working) and it was then that I decided I needed to call DRS... But then everything shut down and it was immediately clear to me that it is not safe for me to go out in public much, much less work in public. Thus I haven't even called DRS, because from what I understand they'd set me up in training and I'm not sure if that can be done distance or not. =/
Okay, sorry, I made that super long... In short, while the benefit of working from home would work perfectly for me, I couldn't find a job before the pandemic, so yeah, I've been put in a place. Thankfully I have a home to live in (my parents took me back in due to my health issues) and I'm doing okay. I just don't have money to buy things. My PC and phone are failing, for one. =/
On Topic: I know they're gorgeous! I've had my eye on Winter Snow for a long time, even back when I had money but she was hard to find. Sweet Sundrop is a more recent discovery for me. She is very rare as well.
