like i said i am currently sick. i am 90% sure it is a sinus infection. i seem to get this yearly. i have a "wet" cough, congestion, on and off low grade fever (haven't even used a thermometer), and bloody buggers. classic symptoms of a sinus infection for me.

for me this is nothing like what we had in december. mine is just a mild inconvenience at most (for now).

she coughs and gags constantly, she is on a different level. this is not unusual for us, as i nursed her through "swine flu" h1n1 in '09. she was bad then too. maybe all the "travel vaccines" back in the day built an #ubertier1bro


as for preps, HA, got 'em covered.

on my worst day i have 6 months of meds, toiletries, food, and water. i stay stocked up year round as hurricane season is 6 months out of the year.

 I hope you guy's don't have the Crud... did ya'ns get tested today ?  for regular or hightest ?

testing is a fucking joke. on monday we drove to bartow (as that is where the city of lakeland is sending employees) (mind you we live in hernando 2 counties away). we get a couple blocks away and her coworker (also sick) calls and says don't bother, as there are 200 cars in line before him, and they are only testing like 50 people. 

i have called, emailed, ect every testing site with in a 2 hour drive, all the same shit "we are only testing 50 - 100 people a day 2 or 3 times a week". 

there is a new testing site we will be trying to day, it's 60 miles away in polk county, we will be there by 9am.

you can get tested at the ER (er deductible, chest xray, and meds) she doesn't want to go to the ER. we called my DR (she sees a NP through work who doesn't do testing), my DR wants "new patient" fee, blood workup fee, office visit fee, and then covid test fee. 

if you really want to be tested you can for $500 bucks cash. i have told her since day one just do it and i will pay, in the over all scheme of shit i would rather pay and be done in an hour instead of driving all over the fucking country but she is about as fiscally tight as scrooge mcduck. if this free one doesn't happen today i am making her go to a normal dr. 

this shit has really cemented in my mind that shit must not be a big fucking deal, or the medical community would be on top of this testing and not all about the up-sell. 

i still feel like shit, maybe a 5 on a 1-10 scale (10 being the worst flu you have had). morning time is the worst until i get all this shit blown out of me. then i just feel sick.

we have actually been kinda strict about not venturing out. i personally locked down 3/14. she started working from home 4/1. we still do one big run a month to walmart to replace shit we have used, we try to go during non peak times, and the walmart we go to is in an area of few reported cases. we have tried to cover all bases for safety.

her job required everyone to report back to work. her boss tested positive a week ago, her and her coworker (top three on the floor who are always in meetings) are now sick.

i have not been to any of my job sites (next week will be 4 months). i have good crews who don't need me to baby sit them. so far non of my guys have reported sickness. we have been busy as shit, no need for unemployment, or paycheck protection, from my end. all of my guys got a stimulus, but my household didn't even get that. bitches. <sad>
