Poor Tom's A-cold

I have been sick the last two days.  Probably not covid, but I got tested anyway. Whatever it is, it's something, so I wear a mask.

Update: Well, it is covid.  My course so far has been cold, sleepy, and achy beginning Wednesday night and lessening every day.  Coughing started last night, but not bad. I am hopeful.

It's sort of a shame that what we would have considered "just a cold" a few years ago now triggers a need for a Covid test. It probably still is just a cold. And wearing a mask even if it is just a cold isn't a bad idea.

Those of us with allergies, chronic sinus problems, etc., will be wearing masks more often for some time. It's not that I'm trying to protect myself from anyone else's germs, but that I'm trying to protect myself from dirty looks when the sneezing hits.

Hope you feel better soon!

And don't think you're well when you first feel OK. Give it a few days.

I drove around for an hour today without getting out of the truck. It seemed a good risk. I have been deeply grateful every day this week that I pressed on and raked all the leaves, took them to the dump, and put down the (seven) mostly organic chemicals, which made the walkways look like Everything Bagels until the rains came.
