My headache finally went away yesterday evening after two doses of Excedrin Migraine and a short nap. I am glad it didn't get any worse.
My son got off work and got home at Midnight which is normal but when he got home he said he had to go right to sleep and if I was up in the morning could I make sure that he was up at 8 am. They want him to work today from 9 am till 11 pm. A 14 hour day.
I told him the money might be good but not to run himself down, that is how people end up sick. Everyone is calling off work and so they are offering a lot of overtime there. He said he was going to do this but he will be careful to get his rest in.
Here he is getting all kinds of overtime and I can't seem to find a job. I know I could get a part time thing but not sure that is worth it to work part time around a bunch of people. I'm just not sure the risk is worth the reward on it.
I hope you all are doing well out there.

I’m so thankful that I retired last year. I cannot imagine the trauma that people face going to work, wondering if one of their co-workers might be infected....and those who aren’t getting a paycheck for at least another four weeks enduring an emotional crisis probably worse than being sick from the virus.

That is good, yea, it is difficult not knowing when this might take the turn and start getting better. I was kind of lucky I guess I had signed up for unemployment early and have been getting that, it's not much but its better than nothing.

Glad your headache went away. That is a long day. You are right that people, if they run themselves down, can get sick. I know that has happened to me. My Lot is an online job. I know every little bit counts. Also you do not have to be around people and can do that in the comfort of your home.

Thankfully your headache went away. Never fun when you have to deal with that all day.
