Tep, I'm using naproxen, supplementing with Tylenol at bedtime. So far, haven't even gone up to 101F, and currently 99.1.
Excellent! May your entire disease course be as boring and uneventful as it is right now.
I like pancakes 'cause they're stackable. Ooo, and waffles 'cause you can put things in the little holes if you wanted to.

Thrive to spite them
JZ I hope you feel better soon and the quarantine time doesn't make you all stir crazy.
Matthew's brother came over to fix the back steps (they are a trip hazard). They came through the house originally but left through the side gate. we stayed, not 6 feet apart but definitely apart and I Lysoled everything they touched (which wasn't much). But it was kind of good I passed on the box of gloves I have so his SIL can give them to someone who is considered an essential worker and is interacting with people.
I discovered with Instacart I can get Aldi to deliver and Publix so if we need groceries I'm going to insist they are delivered. I dont know if Wal Mart here has delivery.
I also had a little talk of "please don't send Matt's mom stuff about the virus" and there was an agreement not to forward any information since it just makes her more anxious so that's good too.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Oh no, JZ! I'm glad you feel OK, and wish you all the best in quarantine. Yikes.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here
Guys- I seriously might actually be deployed as my actual job to sew masks. We'll see the School of Nursing is being asked if we can take this on, and it would be kind of weird for them to not ask me.

Yes, most emphatically this!

Amen!! Meanwhile I suddenly hear my roommate coughing up a storm in her room. Oh dear. I can't really isolate from her unless I bring her all her food. But I also don't want to share a kitchen with her?? But maybe I already have it, who knows.
Sophia I'm sure you could make a ton of masks easy!

Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift
Health~ma to JZ, Matilda, and David. JZ, I'm so sorry you have it but I'm very glad it seems to be a mild case.
MedicGuy transported his first suspected COVID-19 patient last night, and couldn't assess risk since the patient only spoke Arabic. He had all the proper PPE (but we won't think about how his N95 mask expired in 2018), so protocol is to self-monitor for symptoms. We'll find out in 3 days if the patient tested positive. I had been going to the shop to help my father and sister out, but I've stopped as of last night. Even though I keep my distance, it's not worth the risk.
He's exhausted all the time, and it's only going to get worse.

That is so hard, Maria.
I know I can put out a lot of masks. I think it is the idea that my actual work, a major medical center, is considering us as a solution makes it seem all the more dire.
Also, how do I take off acrylic nails- well not acrylic nails, but acrylic over my nails which have gotten long? I already have one failure, I am obviously not getting them done right now, and I don't think I will be able to sew with these nails! Maybe I just try to cut through the acrylic with them short? I don't really care if it looks crappy!
