So this was the week that Covid descended on our household. I’ve never been gladder for forward planning my posts, and that I haven’t really had much more to do that this. So far, my covid is mostly manifesting in swollen glands, ear ache, sore throat, a cough, a persistent underlying headache and a bunged up nose, which I realise sounds like a lot when I write it down, but as it doesn’t include any breathing problems I’ll take it. I’ve mostly spent the time since I went down with it sleeping and watching mindless TV. Fingers crossed this is as bad as it gets.

Nothing bought (although a fair bit arrived) so I guess there’s something to be said for my general lethargy.
Bonus photo: honestly did you expect anything other than my positive covid test? It’s not like I’ve been able to do anything or go anywhere is it?!
