Saturday .. a day for fun ...

I almost feel human. I talked to the Advice Nurse and they want me to take a covid test so I dug one out, it expired 2024, but said I was negative, LOL.

I did order a fresh one from Safeway which will be here later today. They also made an appointment for me for 9am on Monday which I will go to even if I am feeling a bit better, I actually have an appetite today which is new.

I did clean up the kitchen, refilled some water bottles, remade my bed a bit - I won't change the sheets until I am well.

Also orders some Japanese food - I am hoping the wasabi will clear my sinuses. Got the coffee brewing and I am working on email.

Back from the doctor around 10:15 so I thought I would go to The Bistro and get some soup and a salad. Sat there for 10 minutes and saw no staff. I called the front desk and they contacted the Bistro who told them no food is available between 9 and 11. WHAT??? I have dealt with this group for over a year and I didn't know this, why isn't it publicized?

Plus the grab and go has food and I watched as 4 people came to get stuff and there was no one there to ring up the sales. I almost told one lady to just grab what she wanted and go but I didn't want to set up a stealing situation.

Anyway, I went back to my apartment grabbed a yogurt and got back into bed for a nap. Just got up about 2.30. Whatever this is exhausts you fast.

WOW, I was clearing email and got a result of my tests. I forgot to mention the doctor had me do a RSV swab. I had taken 2 covid tests that were negative.

The test says NEGATIVE for Covid, Flu and RSV. I wrote back and said Great, so what is this?

There has been a resurgence of human metapneumovirus, which already existed but disappointed while there was masking for COVID.

LINK

It is less airborne than COVID, but more encountered

That is one possibility.

Tuesday's Mission
https://www.flylady.net/daily-mission

It's Planning Day AND time to spend 15 minutes de-cluttering the top shelf of you closet.

I am feeling much better today! When I woke up I actually had normal temperature, still coughing a lot but only in bursts and not the entire time.

So after I fed the kitties this morning I grabbed a yogurt went back to bed and shared that with Nala. Then I layed down for a nap and after a vivid strange dream woke up trying to find a phone so I could call my boss and tell her I was sick, hahahahahah.

Anyway, I am up for a bit. I cleaned up the kitchen, refilled water bottles, and re-heated my tempura in the Air Fryer for lunch.

Now trying to get caught up on email and socials, then the paper and computer games. Also ordering a dinner for pick up.

Off to email while I listen to Taran

Wednesday's Mission
https://www.flylady.net/daily-mission

It's Anti Procrastination Day AND time to clean out old makeup.

For me it is DAY 11 - SICKWATCH (I wanted to call it deathwatch but that seemed a bit dramatic). I guess I get one day of feeling better and then we fall backward into not so hot.

I cleaned the kitchen a bit, grabbed some ice water and worked a little on email, back to bed for me.

Thursday's Mission
https://www.flylady.net/daily-mission

It's Errand Day AND time to clean off those nightstands. LOL I actually did this because I could put away a bunch of the stuff I don't need anymore while I get well.

DAY 12 -SICKWATCH -- better but not well, still getting intermittent fevers and can only function for about an hour or so once I get up.

I did get the dishwasher going and ordered some food, which I just picked up. After lunch back to bed with the paper and computer games and a few naps.

Sunday ... a day for peace ...

I am up and about, Day 14 of illness and I feel pretty good so far.

Going to have some yogurt, read the paper and see if I might be up for more than an hour today.

I also live in an over-55, but we have individual duplex homes of about 1200+ sq. ft., a couple hundred people total, with a clubhouse, and a lot of social committees.

A LOT of what you are experiencing is going on here too.

Get well soon. (((hugs)))

Monday's Mission
https://www.flylady.net/daily-mission

It's Home Blessing Day AND we have moved to the living room, look it over and remove a few things to make it cleaner/crisper.

Well I might be back, I actually have an appetite and my temperature was normal this morning. So far I got dressed in real clothes, LOL - no jammies today, and I have brewed the coffee while I cleaned up the kitchen.

Not sure how much I will do today, I don't want to push it too far but I need to get a couple of things done - I have a trash pile up, LOL.

Off to clear email and check socials.

Juju, when I got sick I immediately quarantined, I don't think I exposed anyone else. These people get Covid at the drop of a hat so I didn't want to expose them to a mystery illness.

Anyway, I didn't even have my friends bring me food until this week. I am not sure I will go down for dinner but I am going to go have some soup and a sandwich for lunch.

OK, change of plans. Not going out for lunch, I got a little dizzy when I took in my Safeway order. I did get a few pot pies and some sandwiches in my order.

So I have done some restocking of things and now I will go to deal with email.

Thanks Grooch! So I finally got thru my email, voted on all the things I was supposed to vote on, LOL. And cleared up all the other stuff. Balanced my checkbook, paid Kaiser and started to figure out my April bills.

I feel so behind on everything but at least I made a dent today. Just nuking some lunch then probably back to bed for a nap. Oh and I ordered a lunch pickup for 3pm.
