      It's been a crazy start to the new year. My mother, who lives at my place September - February, developed cold like symptoms(sinus congestion, headache) on the 1st. On the 4th, I developed flu like symptoms( fatigue, body aches, and light headedness). I kept myself home from work on the 5th, and contacted my Dr., who had me get tested. Mom did the same. Results came back positive on the 6th. Fortunately, quarantine went well. My mother returned to work earlier this week, and I went back yesterday.

      I will say this… While, my symptoms were mostly mild to moderate, and only lasted about 5 days, there was a time, while laying in bed on the 3rd night, I had a very hard time breathing. If it had gotten any worse, I likely would've headed to the hospital. Thankfully, the breathlessness subsided, and never returned. Mom is still dealing with some residual affects, but is getting along pretty well. All indications are, she's out of danger. It's crazy how different each case of this virus affects each individual. I got a taste of it's potential. Please, take care of yourselves, everyone !

      Be who you are and say what you feel, because those who mind don't matter, and those who matter don't mind.

          Thanks for sharing @scooter . Very pleased you and your ma are on the mend. My brother and his partner tested positive a few days ago. They’ve been observing the restrictions carefully and have only had contact with others when going food shopping. Quite scary that it doesn’t take more than that.

                      I’ve been stuck at 4 for a long, long time. Friends did dare me to grow what remains over lockdown, but I’m just not brave enough to go full-on Friar Tuck.

                                            It was expected once there was an active community case. the early lockdowns we had early on last year were the only reason we enjoyed much of 2020. However, the fact that this has been announced unexpectedly less than a week before I fly back to Singapore has thrown my plans right out the window. hopefully it will be over in 5 days as planned and not extended..  😞
