Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Timelies all!

Mr. started feeling sick last night.(Sore throat, nasal congestion, fever.) Didn't even want to eat much. Fell asleep early. Gary took him to the doctor this afternoon, where they did a COVID test. Hopefully it will be negative.

Our wings are not tired.

Digits crossed for a negative result!

Hope Dana gets home at a decent hour.

Laura, did DH go over to see his sister?

Ugh, Laura. And, ugh, Dana.

Negative test result-ma, Sheryl.

Yikes Laura. Good luck to the fam.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I tried to make an expression the other day about keeping our attitudes positive and our tests negative, but I couldn't pull it off.

I keep almost crying… like, for why?!?

I was crying on my walk the other day after they told us we aren't coming back to the office in January because I can't take another year of that fucking walk. (At least I'll need to come up with some new routes.)

everything is just too much.

making food everyday is too much. not having answers for things at work is too much. numbers of people testing positive more than quadrupling is too much. bills to pay is too much. making this list is now too much.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

I hear you, msbelle. It really is. Can you take a short break and just not for a little while? Would that help?

I am mostly not-ing. Vacation was Dec 10 -15 and that was basically just hanging out. I am not exhausted, I am uneasy.

That's the pain / That cuts a straight line down through the heart / We call it love

Rose tested positive yesterday, and we are all feeling some flavor of crummy today, although she actually feels better today. So now instead of flying home from Massachusetts, we are renting a car and driving 16 hours to Nashville, with plenty of rapid tests and Tylenol on hand.

Sending good thoughts to all. Sheryl, I hope Mr. S feels better soon and that his test is negative.
