Runs for Cookies: Sick

That could be a horrible title for this publish, however I could not give you the rest! And I did not wish to waste extra time fascinated about it.

When Jerry’s COVID take a look at was optimistic on Friday, I used to be so hopeful I would not get it, too. However I had a sense it could happen–and now I am sick. The boys and I confirmed no signs till yesterday morning once I bought a sore throat. It bought worse all day and by night, I felt like I used to be swallowing razor blades. I even have a headache, physique aches, and really delicate congestion. I have never been sick like this in effectively over 2-1/2 years! (The boys nonetheless haven’t any signs and Jerry and I’ve been avoiding getting too near them.)

I took a COVID take a look at yesterday and at present and each had been detrimental. Jerry had taken a pair and had detrimental outcomes earlier than his third one (on his third day with signs) was optimistic. He was utterly depressing for a few days and slept virtually continuous for an excellent 48 hours. I am glad my signs aren’t as unhealthy as his–at least not yet–but it is nonetheless in no way enjoyable being sick.

Jerry thought he’d be off work till subsequent Friday; when he known as work this previous Friday and so they requested him the timeline of signs and a optimistic COVID take a look at, they stated he has to return at present. At the start of the pandemic, individuals had been off for 2 full weeks. Even in the event you had a partner that had signs, you needed to take two weeks off. It progressively bought shorter and shorter, and now it is 5 days from the onset of signs. He simply has to put on a masks for 2 weeks.

It figures–we lastly have superb climate (it was GORGEOUS at present, and as I sort this, I’ve all of the home windows open in the home) however now I am sick and I could not even take pleasure in it. I used to be supposed to observe Luke and Riley for a short while this afternoon, however I clearly canceled (whether or not it is COVID or not, I do not wish to get anybody sick).

This one was infuriating! I regarded it up after studying this reality, and I do not understand how I missed it, however apparently there’s a docuseries on HBO concerning the rip-off. I can not imagine he solely bought three years for that. Now he simply has to make restitution funds of $370 per thirty days.

I’ve all the time been utterly fascinated by individuals who can learn braille. It appears unattainable to me! I do not forget that every time I went on an elevator as a child, I might shut my eyes and really feel the braille on indicators/buttons (that is the one place I may even bear in mind seeing braille–in elevators) and attempt to perceive how individuals may learn that with their fingers. I by no means thought to google it till now, and it is truly tremendous attention-grabbing! And I am nonetheless satisfied I may by no means be taught it. Right here is an article about it–the extra I learn, the extra difficult it bought, however I adopted it for a number of paragraphs, anyway 😉 

Okay, I’ll make some tea and hopefully soothe my sore throat. Then go to mattress early!
