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

Glad to hear that, sj!

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Yay, sj!

You've got friends to have good times with. When you need to share the trauma of a badly-written book with someone, that's when you go to family.

sj, at last!

Aw, Hec, gravity is not your friend just at present. May the test give you good news.

Yay, sj!

Boo to falling drinks and isolation, Hec. May they both stop soon. Well, spilled drinks can actually stop right away.

Fingers crossed, Laura!

Hec, from what I've read you can still test positive for ages after you're no longer sick or contagious. You might want to check with your doctor to verify. I'm sorry about the drink spills. ltc managed to spill an entire glass of water just before her grandparents showed up.

I had wonton soup for lunch because the tree sex has apparently started, and I'm snuffily too. Next is a long shower and then meeting up with thessaly to do some errands, which we haven't done in ages.

Good luck with some negative tests soon Hec! And yay negative tests for LTC.

Work is very frustrating right now. Not so much because of anything big or actually terrible just a lot of “nibbled to death by ducks”. And the fact that I keep having headaches does not help.

I need to get my ducks lined up for work. They are a hot mess right now, my water fowl.

Meanwhile, it's lovely here, and we ate lunch on the screened in porch. And, yeah, tomorrow it will be 40°cooler and rainy. Ah, well.

Test results finally came back and were negative. ltc is with her grandparents, and everything is right in the world.

Yay!

The recommendations are that I don't need to isolate 5 days after symptoms stop but I'm just leery of exposing Matilda because it will wreak havoc with her school schedule (and she just started softball, and they barely have enough players to field a team. So any absence on her part would probably be a forfeit.)

"An abundance of caution" etc.

I’m I know what a difficult balance all of this is with kids. I just wanted to make you aware of the fact that you could continue to test positive for a good long time. Yay, softball!
