Back from the quick covid test, will know in 24 hours.


I feel ok but I rather know then not.

My 86 year old neighbor had a sore throat and earache.

So watch out for that.

She under treatment so she should be ok.

Her daughter dealing with everything.

Wear you masks.

Time for a cold beer and a BBQ sandwich.

I gave my sample around 4:45 on Thursday afternoon and got results around noon on Saturday. I opted for the non-quick test because I had read it was more reliable.

Know we know.

Her daughter got her booster shot last week.

Good timing.

Was going to get her mother her booster shot.

This is getting close.

Send my housemate to get tested.

Think about the kids at school.

I was always getting earaches when I was a kid.

Always had cotton in my ears.

I am in cooler weather or AC but hot sunny weather is ok and it’s never painful just a feeling of closure but I’m glad read this because anything different from now on I won’t be like oh that’s just getting a little worse.
No it could be a symptom of something else right now.
Mine did not start before 30 but yes kids and earaches .
So yes now we know -spread the word if so inclined folks

That is what gave me walking pneumonia.

It was bad.

This why I stayed home so much.
