That would be tough. I live alone and have done for many years, and I have always had the opportunity to create a "home office" but for many reasons (mainly that I am a messy slovenly slob, but other reasons too, e.g. trying to keep work for workplace and work hours) I never really bothered.
This has forced me to create a decent home work space, all on a big desk so when work stops, I can shut the laptop lid and slide the external keyboard under the monitor stand.
It's worked quite nicely because even in non-crisis times, there are plenty of opportunities for me to work from home and I've never taken them, but now that I see that I CAN, hopefully I will. Saving time and fuel etc.
The downside is that there isn't that much for me to do at the moment. Admin tasks which I am rationing and expanding (by doing in "slow motion") to fill the days.
Today is a bit annoying as I am exhibiting classic hay fever symptoms brought on by a blitz of tidying up and sorting through old old stuff yesterday, which has kicked up a lot of old dust. So I have watering eyes and a streaming nose and sneezing fits, meaning I can't really go out as I'll be mistaken for a "spreader" who should be in isolation!
