Like everyone else, back to work today. Sort of, as I'll be home this week. Can't say that I'm mad about that. Stuff is hitting the fan so to speak at work given all the staff out sick and the surge that's still growing. Can't say much more than that at the moment other than to say, this is already harder on the hospital than the other surges because of the community spread of COVID to the staff.
I was just thinking, all those folks that risked or did lose PTO because of use it or lose it at the end of the year. Now is the time to take it!

Werk .... I rememberize sumting like that, I think.
I wish Storybook Soapworks was still here
Agreed, but don't start looking for it either lol
I work in a dept of 20 people.
14 of us currently positive. And we have people in AZ, UT, IL, and NY. It's everywhere man. Thankfully everyone is working and has mild to no symptoms.
Well dang, come March there will be nobody left to catch it!
Totally bummer my friend! I’m so sorry that you have to go through this as well. I hope the whisky helps
Jeez everyone has it right now…. Of course, feel better soon!

Ya, so f 2020, f 2021, and f 2022. Today my daughter gets out of isolation, the other kids were supposed to come home and life returns to whatever the heck this junk is we're living in right now. My wife and I have been sickish for many days, but went and took an official type o' COVID test several days back that was timed to 5 days after my daughter was positive to see if we got it prior to isolating her. Nope, we were sick, but it wasn't COVID. Given how we were feeling, we were ready for it to be positive. Yesterday we test ourselves to again confirm before the other girls move back. Positive as clear as day for both of us. @Majorrich had a point about being around more people with it at work. But at work when I'm in the ED, for instance, I wear a tighter mask and a face shield. At home taking care of my daughter, it's the balance of trying to be safe but not making her feel more like a leper than she already did. So there it is.
We now have 3 levels of folks in our family. My daughter is super immune and not contagious anymore and can hang with us AND go out. My wife and I have fluctuating levels of cold symptoms and lay down a path of cooties. And the other two kids for who it's just much safer to stay out of the house until this has worked its course and are finding out that life with grandpa and grandma isn't the end all be all they thought it would be.
All in all, just wish we got it earlier as the illness is just annoying, but the logistical changes are the biggest pain.
So, my day is starting as they all should. Shower, professional-level shave, logged into work in sweats while I catch up on the cadre and YouTube. Have to try to decide what type of coffee to make and is breakfast before or after the safety huddle call for work. I got a pretty nice pen for Christmas, but decided it just wasn't a style that thrilled me for the price, so my wife is working with a vendor to see if we can swap it out. Hopefully will be posting pictures of that bad boy when it comes. Only teasing for now and I'll share it's wrapped in leather.

Well whatever Symptoms you and Panthea (did I spell that right?) have I hope continue to stay mild. The logistical stuff is by far the worst. But hey look at it this way.... you are starting 2022 with super immunity! PLUS taste and smell are staying so you can continue to enjoy your whiskey.... and if that doesn't help there is always cookies.
Dude, thank goodness for that. Other than being hospitalized, I would rank that as the thing I'd want the least to happen.
