Hey all,
As those who know me on Facebook already know, I may well have the Coronavirus. Me and one of the guys at work I sit next to are both sick, we’re both “self isolating” for a week (which, on the bright side, means a week away from a job I hate) and neither of us know quite where we caught it. Neither of us are confirmed cases but we both have symptoms and I was told to use the online service which told me to call my doctors who told me to use the online service, so clearly the medical services are a tad overwhelmed and underprepared.
Anyway, I *thought* on Friday this would mean more time to RP. It has not. Between coughing so hard I gag pretty much every time I move, genuinely finding it hard to breathe after said coughing fits or doing anything like going up and down stairs, and seriously just wanting to sleep all the time (yesterday I was awake for 4 hours, fell asleep on the sofa with my dog for 4 and a half hours, and then went to bed 3 hours later) I don’t think I’m going to get anything written. I have two RPs started but I don’t know if I’ll finish either, so if I don’t, please join me in blaming my employer. ?
Hopefully I’ll be better in a few days and I’ll update you all just in case you get anything similar. All I’ll say is that it’s no joke. The cough I have is by far the worst cough I’ve ever had in my life. I’ve coughed until my chest aches from it, and then kept coughing, so all the advice about staying safe and washing your hands? Do that!!!! I’ve had serious stress and anxiety issues all year which has meant my health has not been great in general, but that doesn’t just mean the vulnerable get sick as my workmate is a tank and he’s also been taken down by it. Just be careful all of you! ❤️
