16. So, a quick update.

I had managed to avoid actually having it until yesterday. Now, I am dealing with a head cold, at least that is what it seems to be like. My husband's fever broke on Friday and he is doing much better. He went into work today. I am not happy about this, but what else can we do? At least his work happens mostly alone after the location closes. He also has a mask and uses gloves all the time. Of course, the location could care less about his sickness as long as he can do the work.

I want to thank you all for putting up with my whining and panicked state. Things are so screwed up around here that having both of us come down with this shit has been overwhelming. Plus, now I am pretty much sidelined and this is a big townhouse when only one person does anything about it.

I wish I was... well, no matter. Wishing is what children do.
