Missing in Action

Yes, that is me, I have been missing in action. Headache, sore throat, runny nose, sneezing and a fever. The school is out of covid tests, but should have more in today. I will get tested. I have to be fever free for 72 hours without the use of fever reducing medicine before I come back to work. That is at least through Thursday. So, yesterday I just did not feel up to being online at all. So, I wasn't. Maybe today I will read and respond a bit, in between naps.

Good idea to get tested . . . I just hope you get better and soon from whatever it is. I don't blame you . . . when I'm not feeling well, I can't focus being in front of a screen. Please take care!

Having a fever seems to have fried my brain.

@GardenGerty Fevers are exhausting . . . as I get older I find that it takes a bit longer for me to recover - even mentally .

Sleep as much as you can. That always helps me feel better. I hope you feel better soon.

@GardenGerty Yeah, coughing can be so annoying. I hope you're feeling better now.

No you should rest & keep well hydrated. You are the priority right now. How you feel better soon!

I do still have some cold symptoms, but no fever. Water is something I crave. Tea as well.

I read that you're negative so at least that is a good thing.
