My fever is gone, but I am still fighting this wretched thang. Some friends in the Bay Area both had it and, like me, felt it was pretty tenacious.

Vibes, Jeanne.

I'm up, I'm up - five hours maybe. I said not before nine, they get here at eight. No mask. NOW they have a mask. Covering everything in plastic and will be sanding. Am I supposed to stay here while this sanding is going on? Do I need that crap in my lungs. I have no idea how long this is going to take and I don't want to leave them here and I need to write and I REALLY don't need to get sick

And someone can tell me how Mercury in retrograde can happen already when it just STOPPED a couple of months ago.

A couple years ago my landlord thought it perfectly acceptable to have the handyman come in, rip out a LARGE section of my kitchen ceiling and plaster, sand, and paint for one week, leaving me without the use of my kitchen. I live in a studio apartment and my bed is 3 feet from the kitchen. I find this completely UNacceptable and fought tooth and nail about it. Not to mention that I am highly allergic to dust, mud, and paint. I won the battle, but  it still bugs me that anyone could find that acceptable.

Almost seven pages so far. Just ended a chapter and began a new one. It took a really long time to get the end of the last chapter right and I'm still not sure it's right and I won't know until I read it again in the morning. I think it works, though. There were two different ways to approach it. I chose one and if I feel it's not the right one, then I'll have to rewrite about two pages to do the other approach.

One of his spurned lovers most likely.

I am sorry you are still sick.  Did you find out if it is a cold or covid?

No, not for sure, but I don't think it's Covid. Home test kits haven't been available online for months now and I haven't been well enough to go in person.

Tonight I'll probably watch the season finale of ROYAL FLYING DOCTOR SERVICE. I hope there's a season 2.

You are probably right.  You are so careful it is hard imaging you have a cold let alone covid.

We picked up covid tests after returning home from our trip.  We almost purchased some on the trip except we didn't know anything about the brand, and they were saliva kits which don't work as well for testing covid.

Turns out, saliva tests might work better for Omicron and we have the top rated nasal test available.

Right now I am more concerned I don't have a cold then the possibility I have covid.  Actually that I am coming down with a cold.  I still feel as if I have allergies, the kind that sometimes turn into colds.

Voldemort is basically a middle school girl: he has a locket, a diary, a tiara, a ring, and is completely obsessed with a teenage boy.

So...is it a bad thing that the only name I recognize is Natascia Diaz? :-\

About 40 minutes into the show, someone named Bobby Smith sings a great version of Marry Me a Little.

No. I think I also recognized Holly Twyford. But why I don't know.

We started a 90 minute documentary about scoring film music called, appropriately, Score. I found it was available on a free platform called "Doc+"

There is a nice park in downtown Vancouver with a very nice playground.  We have been looking forward to taking Freyja there.  Keith just saw an article that the playground burned down on the 11th :(
