I am so sorry! I hope you get your $$ back and TD's case is mild. I really respect those who are decent enough to avoid infecting others, some folks just don't care. Thats not happening. I managed to get through to the B&B and canceled our room. No refund. I am kinda bummed as family we’ve not seen in a few years will be there. TD’s getting sicker. He said his throat is hurting, and he just crawled back into bed. I’m the only one still standing right now. Do you have some Paxlovid to give him? That is the best drug EVER if you get diagnosed with Covid. DH, DS & I only had one bad day after we started taking that drug. Hope TD only has a mild case.

I'm beat today, but I'm through my telemed appointment. My doc increased the duloxetine to the max dose for my feet. He said it will help the burning but not the numbness so will try it. I really like him and he said if things fall through, He would like to continue having me as a patient. When he left here, I stayed with him though he is north of Indianapolis, I told him we will drive up when needed. He is so easy to talk to and just a good doc. I have told each of my docs how happy I have been with their services. I'm sure even they like to hear that from patients instead of complaints.
I ate lunch out and brought DD lunch home, we are eating way to much fast food, but too tired right now to do much else. Hubs is working with the guys, but he told me just do nothing today and other than some laundry and things I haven't. I do need to get some more canning jars in a box though for the sale.
We also went to town and signed the papers for the home, so we fund it Monday and it is a done deal. But like I told hubs, once we get the houses sold if we don't like it we can always buy another. He said it will be fine as we don't need big garages or yards at our age, I agree.
So I'm in bed, both kitties are too and I'm going to take a nap. My foot is killing me today. Hopefully I can sleep a couple of hours.
I woke up about 3 this morning and my back and body was so stiff and I was in so much pain it was awful. I got the heating pad out, its a longer one and slept on it and that sure helped.
Later all

#metoo. Though being an overly fluffy, white-haired Caucasian woman makes that quite easy. At least at a glance I fit right in. Yep. Being Canadian doesn’t exactly put a target on his back. Regardless, it’s not something he wants to jeopardize. DN3 and NIL are permanent residents in Canada. They really enjoy living in Canada. If the job keeps going well, it would not surprise me if they seek citizenship.

Well, this sucks! DS has been under the weather for the last few days. She's done a pretty good job of keeping herself isolated in the basement.....but she didn't take a covid test. I suggested to TD that even though we both feel fine, we should probably throw some tests into our bag in case we felt crappy while across the border in BC. TD has a runny nose, so took a test and came up positive. We have just lost 3 days of $$ at the B&B we are staying at - unless the guy takes pity on us. TD's not about to go up there and possible infect the elderly that are going to be there. There will be about 6 in his family that covid could possibly be an issue. That really does suck. I'm sorry. Maybe the B&B will be grateful for your awareness and that you are not infecting them. Then they'll refund your money. I hope.

I missed the bus and ended up walking to my favourite French pastry shop. I was jonesing for fresh, buttery croissants. Bought a big bunch of sunflowers from the supermarket on my way home, only $10. Now they're happily ensconced in my tall brass vase from India. Sunflowers make me happy.

We left to do a little drive-around to see how power restoration in the area was going and, low and behold, when we came home it was on. Not super optimistic it will stay on but will take it for the moment. Many hundreds of thousands still without so I am grateful

I'm feeling really lazy tonight. Like so lazy that the thought of running a few miles down the road to the bar to grab dinner sounds like too much work. Probably shouldn't just be a slug though. Tomorrow I have to go pick up DS and both kids will be home for 6 days. The most they've been home together since Christmas. I have laundry and beds and other stuff that needs to be done before they get back.

There are about a million people waiting to get in. They are in on the professor visas. They could bring me if I was his mother, but he can't bring me as an aunt. He checked.

Disappointed the Guardians game is on Apple TV.

Well, I paid my bills and did laundry. Money was nice while it lasted. I was going to get takeout, but there was a steak in the freezer that was on the verge of freezer burn. So instead I made fajitas with it. I also made sopa de fideo. Yum!

Tomorrow we're going to the "big" grocery store in the rich folks area because our locals don't have power yet. I'll just get the essentials like bread and milk and wait until Aldi opens, maybe next week if we are lucky.

The dog is getting a bath tonight. I'm taking her with me to the farmer's market tomorrow, where she will get petted by many hands. She is far too dirty for that.

Just spent 20 minutes watching 3 doe and a fawn. Fawn was doing all kinds of funny fawny things like crazy leaping, running, and trying to climb on the back of one of the doe. It still has its spots, but not teeny tiny.

I have been having some chest pain the last 2 hours, I finally took a nitro tablet, think its ok now. Will see, I can take up to 3 if needed before calling the doc or going to ER. My diet has been awful the last 2 weeks, way to much fast food, not enough veggies and fruits, going to have to get my diet back on keel. Also to keep my energy up have been chugging sodas, not good at all. Tonight water and going to do the same tomorrow.
As hubs said we just have to survive 2 more days till this sale is over. I'm going to bed really early tonight. I am exhausted, I have been for about 3 days and just couldn't stop.
I feel much better now, likely the stress, poor diet, and lack of rest. I dread the next 2 days.
And I got the bonds out of the safety deposit box to get the lowest earning ones out to cash. And no I cannot find the pouch, why I didn't lock them in the pill closet I don't know. And they are a lot of money. Now I will stress over that. May have to do with all the stuff hubs had moved in the area I had sorted. I had personal papers and things out noone should have had access to.

Thats not happening. I managed to get through to the B&B and canceled our room. No refund. I am kinda bummed as family we’ve not seen in a few years will be there. TD’s getting sicker. He said his throat is hurting, and he just crawled back into bed. I’m the only one still standing right now. Do you have some Paxlovid to give him? That is the best drug EVER if you get diagnosed with Covid. DH, DS & I only had one bad day after we started taking that drug. Hope TD only has a mild case. I just messaged th3 doctor about this earlier today. I am surrounded by covid. Wonder what the odds are of me picking it up too?

When DH had it, he locked himself in our spare bedroom. No one else caught it then. Unfortunately, by the time we'd found out that DS's coworker had Covid, I probably already had it, but DS showed symptoms first, and then within a day or two I tested positive. If you start feeling a bit off, go ahead & use one of your tests.

Have you found out what the current local variants are?
