OMG. DD was up super late last night. So exhausted today. Middle of the day she started sniffling and is exhausted. I am super panicked and anxious here.

nelzie, that picture alone gives me anxiety. Dear gods. I just don't understand. 90% of the comments on Facebook about this are: "thank you for letting these kids live normal lives" "your business is essential thanks for staying open and not requiring masks" "thanks for standing up for what's right in a country of people willing to give up their constitutional freedoms" "Thanks for having the brains to provide good healthy fun for the kids!" "There are plenty of other places for the mask believers to wear their muzzles" "Its been 9 months, if it were real all the no mask wearers would be wiped out by now" I just can't. They are probably deleting anything negative. My head and heart hurt that anyone would think that is party at an indoor playground is a good idea right now.

Step outside the front door and Take a deep breath. (Exactly the advice I tried to give myself last night before I dissolved in a panic attack, I hope it works better for you. )

Cross post from Politics Again, preaching to the choir, but for those who have older family members/friends, perhaps remind them that there are scam artists preying on those waiting for vaccines. Especially seeing how there are some true glitches in the roll out, I can see how easy it would be for some to fall for these cons. www.aarp.org/money/scams-fraud/info-2020/coronavirus-vaccine-scams.html

My mom tested positive today. We had visited dec 26/27 (they live 6hrs away), and J had stayed with them for a week and just came home yesterday. I've been dealing with a cough since Monday that I figured was my typical winter bronchitis/ear infection/strep, so now I'm second guessing everything.

I’m irritated. H worked in the kitchen of a restaurant with a coworker on Sunday the 27th. On Tuesday the 29th, that person tested positive. H found this out entirely by accident via a gossipy coworker. He followed up with his manager and the guy told him his coworker didn’t name him as a close contact and they didn’t realize he worked that night. They have a schedule, and H has worked every Sunday for years, they didn’t glance at it to make sure the guy remembered everyone? I guess it wouldn’t have made much of a difference. We would have tried to be more cautious at home, but a two and four year old make that tough.

snowyowl that's unbelievable. My SIL works in food service and when she caught a cold last week they said "go get tested, but can you still come in because we're short staffed?" She was like....that is not how that is supposed to work.

She was like....that is not how that is supposed to work. The place has been so sketchy through all of this. In the spring they asked H to come in and work under the table in the spring. It needed to be under the table so the state wouldn’t know they had too many people in the building. And the pitch was that he could still collect unemployment. H said, “I said no and then I felt bad because I didn’t ask you first.” Dude. No. Don’t feel bad that your immediate instinct was not to commit unemployment fraud along with a host of other unethical things.

At the end of this I really hope I am just sad that I will have spent a month (minimum) in quarantine. I guess there’s no excuse for not cleaning out my closet and getting the house organized now.

My sister has it. BIL went to an in-person gaming party, lied to my sister about wearing a mask, and then forgot to do any type of contact tracing when he got sick, claiming it was just a cold.
Major side eye to BIL. Major.

Sending lots of good thoughts for mild symptoms for any of you dealing with this, either yourself or your family. And throat punches to all the jerks who break the rules and expose others.
H tested positive today. Restart the clock.
Gunna be in quarantine foreva.

Shit cnf, I’m sorry. How are you and the baby feeling? Hope YH remains mild I'm definitely sick too. Horroble headaches, joint pain, sore throat, hot flashes and chills, tired. The baby seems fine, though he's had diarrhea all day today which is new, so I'm getting a bit nervous. We'll see if it's just a fluke thing today or if he has it, or more, tomorrow. The girls need to have a follow up with their pediatrician so if I call tomorrow to schedule that I can ask about the baby too.

That poor boy.
Holy shit to the BIL LYING.
I feel really down about this covid world we live in today. Sigh. It feels like it’s really just a matter of time.
