My other half is sitting up in bed today, eating porridge and drinking lemonade – a huge improvement on recent days. Apparently her body is staging a spirited fight-back against COVID19.
Somewhat miraculously, the rest of us remain symptom free.
I’m hoping she will be returning negative tests by Sunday at least – so she can watch the kids open their Easter eggs in person. Somehow I think it might be early next week though, given the experience of friends.
The last few days have been strange – knocking around the house, sleeping on the sofa, and doing the chores like a lonely automaton. If not for catching up with distant friends on the internet, I would probably be sporting questionable personal hygiene, growing a beard, and falling into the gravity well of daytime television.
Anyway.
Another hour, and the family will no doubt be asking about dinner. I wonder if I can point them towards the leftovers from yesterday’s “party food” dinner?

That’s great news. So glad to hear she’s on the mend and the rest of you are Covid free.

Covid with my extended family was almost a non event and we are all, and shall remain, booster free. The double vax is all we have. Instead of neverending cocktails of boosters we upped our immunity by taking a zinc and vitamin C supplement. 2/4 had a cold which lasted 4 days and 1/4 had it slightly longer and described it as a mild flu. Me? I have no voice today but tested negative so there are still other viruses floating around. I feel fine except I can’t talk. (Talking is overrated. 😉)
Rest is best. And just think of all the wonderful antibodies she’s manufacturing naturally.
Sending you happy vibes. You’re a good dad, Jonathan. The girls know it. 😘
