Da da da da dada, I’ve got ‘Rona!!

Well I guess it had to happen eventually. I finally tested positive to COVID yesterday morning!

I could feel the aches and pains coming on the night before and thought “I’m getting the flu” but I was sadly mistaken. The kids had tested positive on Saturday evening and Monday morning respectively, so despite the isolation in bedrooms the sneaky virus found me!!

It’s an unusual situation for me because I rarely get sick. I think I inherited my strong constitution from my Dad – he was a tough man. I’ve also got what I call cast iron guts meaning I can – and will – eat almost anything, but nothing has prepared me for the way my body feels right now. Did someone get the rego of that bus that hit me??

Thankfully I’ve still got my senses of taste and smell, and I’d like to say that I am not eating as much compared to what I normally do, but actually that’s a small fib – growing up as one of 7 kids I ate whenever I could so I didn’t miss out and that trait has carried over into my adult life. So this means that catching The Rona might just be a way to reset and lose weight at the same time?!

I’m sure that whatever happens, my SEVEN DAYS OFF WORK will be thoroughly enjoyed – by doing absolutely nothing!!
