    Feel sick as hell suddenly.
    Will Covid test tomorrow.
    Could be a bad cold.
    I am vaccinated and boosted.

    Got flu shot and COVID boosted a couple weeks ago. About the time my youngest had this shitty cold that's been going around.

    Of course we all got it... But we're all mostly over it. The youngest is feeling pretty good finally.

    Lucia is taking care of me. Sore throat, runny nose, chills. No appetite. Made tea and eating a couple of crackers even though I don't want them. Warm cat on lap. Chest is clear. I work from home but still taking tomorrow off.

    It was really sudden. I felt tired but OK, had some things to do this afternoon and got home dragging.

    Before Thanksgiving I made all my stocks, chicken, meat, vegetable. Tomorrow will open a jar.

    I feel crappy but not at death's door. Like a really bad cold. Stay home, drink tea.

    Luckily you've taken all precautions, so you'll be fine.

    It's not fun, but it was bound to happen eventually. Now you'll have the best immunity possible!

    Hope you feel better soon!

    Doing video call with Dr tomorrow. Need to find out if I should just stay home and drink tea or more aggressive treatment.

    that’s what I’ve been dealing with since Friday. It’s brutal

    I don’t think I’ve had the flu as an adult, I wasn’t prepared

    Hopefully she doesn't have the flu in conjunction with covid. We'll get those results soon, but as a pharmacist she has definitely been exposed by fuckwits that come in to get prescriptions when they are experiencing symptoms. Idiots!

    Amazing, isn't it?...I can't believe how stupid and uncaring about others that some people can be. Hopefully, she will be fine and won't have to deal with the flu for very long...be safe.

    Damn, seems like everyone has it...here's to hoping all of you and your family who are affected will recover quickly.
