Home designs are getting updated based on what stay-at-home workers, learners need.

“Our home used to be an escape from the daily routine, and now more than ever it has become our shelter from the outside world. Now our home may be more part of our daily routine, too,” said Cristina Miguelez, remodeling specialist for Fixr, a resource for home remodeling projects.

“As more people are starting to work from home, do homeschooling, exercise at home or even enjoy the holidays at home, we may start having the need to ‘escape from home,’ which may translate into creating new spaces within our houses where we relax, where we work or where we carry out certain activities like exercising or studying. This will allow us to separate our routine from our respite.”

Here’s a stubborn, recurring dilemma. Your family is itching for a coronavirus escape. That means a road trip, which means trying to figure out a bathroom strategy. An increasing number of public restrooms are open, but not all of them. Additionally, there are still some among us who are not interested in public highway bathrooms at this particular moment.

The Travel John is a disposable urinal in a bag, and it’s finding new popularity among those who don’t want to use public restrooms.

It’s a real head scratcher, but I wasn’t about to let a little tinkle trouble stand between me and the open road. I’m a man of action, a man of ideas, and, apparently, I’m also now a man who urinates in plastic bags.

IDAHO FALLS – Since the COVID-19 health crisis began in March, the Community Food Basket – Idaho Falls has seen its numbers of those seeking emergency food assistance skyrocket. An increase of 75%-100% in the number of people served each month now seems to be the norm versus even just 6 months ago.

Baffled internet users have shared the most hilarious design fails they have encountered in their day-to-day lives. 

The photographs, snapped by people around the world, were collated in a Bored Panda gallery after originally being shared on a Reddit thread. 

They range from inappropriate to amusing – including a brown-patterned toilet seat which looks like the scene of a messy bathroom incident and a fence randomly secured in the middle of a field. 

Another humorous picture shows an unfortunately placed sign which tells customers to ‘eat kids free’.
