Holiday Prep and celebrations

All of the above, plus don't even think about going to Ottawa/Ganineau.

At this point, I travel frequently from my bed to the couch to the bed to the couch. Hopefully, the flu peak will be gone for Nationals, or else, I feel many athletes and fans will be severely ill.

Thanks all for the well wishes. I'm resting. Day 3 of hell.

May you continue to recover from it!

Close up of my Negativity Scene. Yes, Negativity Scene. Make note of everyone's expressions.

This is more hilarious than it should be. Part of me wants one

Ah hell. Now I'll be going through the phase of 'Stay' on repeat.

You can buy one! Just Google it and a site will come up. The colors of the new one are more vibrant, but it is definitely the same. When I first looked, it was not available, but it was the second time I looked. I didn't order it because postage to Canada was very expensive.

Merry Christmas to everyone here!

Merry Xmas. I am finally feeling a bit better. Last night I had my first real meal since the 19th. I wish you all a new year of health. Stay away from H3N2

I've heard the flu is really bad this year. I hope you are feeling better soon!

The news reports say it's hitting children and teenagers the hardest. Do you have that age group among your pupils? Teachers and children's librarians get more than their fair share of colds and flu .

It is awful.

The first time I had it was the worst. Get well fast.

Merry XMAS to all of you here that have made my life just alittle bit better, as well as all my docs and operating room staff. And to all of you around the world that have touched me and made me happy for a bit.

Yup. However I think I know who passed it on to me and it was an adult whose children were sick
..

But since so many people are sick, everyone is guilty

^ Actually, I think I saw an ad for the NYC Rockin' New Year's Eve show (@ Times Square) that indicated that she's one of the musical guests for the show. Not that I stay up late enough for the ball drop,

It is odd but true that teachers get small viral loads and develop immunity due to all the exposure. Same with flight attendants.

I respectfully disagree. I know the two people who gave me covid. Covid symptoms can be easily covered up with over the counter meds. People who know they are sick and refuse to wear masks and go out in public are truely guilty. They dont want to even test or see a doc in fear of their own lives being interupted. The Japanese are much more atuned to personal responsibility. Did you see all those masks at their nats? Now check out the masks at US Nats. I realize that some people can not medically handle shots. No shot is risk free. But In spite of the health risks associated with flu many Canadians and Americans do not get vaccinated. Vaccination rates in the two countries are similar: 43% for Canada and 44% for the United States. Now 1900 Americans are dead and 33 of those are kids....
I dont feel guilty. I get tested, I wear real masks, and I quarentine. I also hold doors open for people behind me.
