COVID19 - Day 6

Day 6 - 3/20/20 Friday

Things are still feeling normal, until I turn on the tv or read the news. This is messing with my mind, and I know it's not good for my mental health.

William has a productive cough. I don't think he has corona virus, he doesn't have a fever. But he has a history of a cough going from fine to scary really fast, so we are doing daily nebulizer treatments already (albuterol and budesonide).

I think we are official cancelling out spring break beach trip, so that's a bummer. I just don't think there's any other time we can reschedule for this year.

Watching the news and reading more stories out of Italy, everything seems to be getting worse. 

I did a video conference with a nurse to talk about my red-eye, conjunctivitis, or whatever it is. She thought it was allergy related (the pollen count is 1800+) and prescribed some allergy eye drops. It's about the same today as it was yesterday. Not super itchy or gunky.

I got the eye drops and picked up some zinc lozenges, just in case, I read they might help, since Covid19 likes to infect your throat.

We picked up pizza from our favorite neighborhood pizza place. Again, things feel pretty normal... just when you stop to think... they aren't. 

So far the boys are doing well and not getting bored. Thank God we live in the time of internet, there's so much content out there for them to watch.

Got a headache before bed. Not sure if it's allergies, wearing my glasses, or stress related.

COVID 19 Day 15

3/29/20 Sunday COVID 19 Day 15 Another day in the house. The pollen count is over 8,500, so I will be staying inside for the time being. Yuck! I feel like such a bum. Laziness begets laziness, and I just didn't want to do anything. I also had a stomach ache (probably from deep dish pizza, cake, and then cinnamon rolls for breakfast).  And a headache (probably from allergies). We moved out old kitchen table up to the office to use as a desk. The old desk we had was the one I had in college, and it just wasn't ergonomic, and I was hunching over all day at my computer. Chris went to play golf with Patrick. They had to take separate carts, but I am glad he could get out and play, since he couldn't take the boys (they wouldn't let them ride in a cart together.) On the president's briefing today, he extended social distancing guidance until April 30, so we won't be going back to work or school before that. I don't think they will go back to school this ...

COVID 19 Day 14

3/28/20 Saturday COVID 19 - Day 14 Today's Chris' birthday. He ordered some deep dish pizza from Chicago and we will eat it tonight since we can't go out. Still got a cake at Publix, so that's pretty normal. We took a drive about 30 minutes away, to pick up some sod we are going to try to grow in our backyard. We stopped at Firehouse Subs on the way home to pick up sandwiches (no dining in the restaurant). It was nice to get out of the house, even if I stayed in the car. Little semblances of normal life until we are reminded that we are basically in quarantine the rest of the time. Chris also went to the grocery store (he had to pick up his cake). I was hoping he would get some yeast so I could try making some bread, but they were completely sold out! Also, no tp. We have enough for this week, but I would like to buy some when we find it. We started watching Tiger King on Netflix, it's the next show everyone is talking about, so it's nice to ha...
