Days in Quarantine for Abby Phillip

The pandemic has created a situation in which even family members must maintain a safe distance. Because of the threatening virus, Abby couldn’t even call her parents for dinner on special occasions like her birthday. She was with her husband and their dog, Booker T, for the entire day. This year, they had a low-key birthday with no celebrations. But Abby doesn’t mind because she prefers to keep things to herself. She also deserves some time to herself after a five-day election process.

In her spare time, she enjoys cooking and baking. Her other hobby is taking care of plants and gardening. It may appear monotonous, but she enjoys doing household chores. Aside from that, she enjoys reading books. She is currently reading Isabel Wilkerson’s Castle, and she considers her a role model. Gwen Ifill, whom she considers her idol, was a huge fan of hers as a child.
