CoVid found me, almost 2 years later
I almost made the 2 year mark. Last week Monday, unfortunately my coworker started feeling symptoms. Tuesday morning her rapid came back positive. I tried to wait for the 5 days to get tested myself, however I lost my smell and taste by day 3 on Wednesday. Along with night chills on Monday & Tuesday.
I am very blessed and grateful that I got a mild case, I am not happy how I got this and I am lucky this happened before my trip. I really would of been extremely unforgivably upset.
Now I want to talk about how my 5 day Isolation was unbearable. Self Isolation is one thing, forced Isolation is another. Especially when you live alone, it was almost like the lock down of 2020. I felt the same darkness, anxiousness, boredom, loneliness as I did that first week. The main difference is my husband isn't here to help me or keep me company.
I found that us humans tend to go to default when others are sick, ill or have CoVid. Both of my parents and some friends defaulted in saying feel better! I didnt feel sick, yet just because I have CoVid that titled me as in being sick. Even though I explained to them, what I am feeling and how I am asymptomatic. They still felt the need to default to "feel better" , it was weird because I have no control of that. I lost my smell and taste -- unfortunately it's a waiting game. I just have to wait til the day comes that I can smell and taste like I did before getting this forsaken virus.
Today is day 4 out of my 5 day quarantine, tomorrow is my last day of remaining indoors, my last day of the isolation blues. I can't wait, I want to go back to work, I want to be outside YES in the freezing cold lol I want to socialize, I want to feel the sun again. Thank god tomorrow is TUES! Hope you all had a great day, here is to a great week.
