If there’s a silver lining to , it’s that we’re able to spend more time than ever with our pets.

As coronavirus has all but dried up releases in the worlds of music, movies and television, it's easy to become bored at home while quarantining. While streamers like Spotify and Netflix have nearly endless catalogs of content, some might be yearning for something a little different to keep their mind off of things.

Its 'Netflix and Chill' time for Michelle Obama as the Former First Lady of the United States is also confined within her home owing to the Coronavirus pandemic across the globe. While most of us are wondering what to do at home all day long, Michelle Obama seems to have made peace with staying indoors and she's loving her time at home.
