COVID


We made it almost 2 years avoiding COVID - but it got us! Chris started showing signs first and he thought it was just a sinus infection... well to be safe, he took tests which all came back negative until Monday night - it was finally positive. It wasn't positive until well into day two of symptoms! We isolated as we could but it was too little too late...

I would take steps every morning and see if anyone even had a sniffle or a tickle in their throat and always nothing. When the symptoms came on - they came on suddenly and quickly. Lucy in the middle of the night and myself - randomly between meetings. Heidi lasted the longest without showing any signs, I really thought she would avoid it because she naturally isolates being a teenager - nope - it finally got her Friday. 

We are all home and doing better. It comes in waves. You can feel pretty darn good and a half-hour later - have the chills and be down for the count. Lucy can technically go back to school tomorrow, but we have tests ready to give tonight to see if that can even happen. Heidi can't go until Wednesday, which I'm guessing I won't send them back until they can go together. 


Lots of movies have been watched, legos and naps. I am happy that if we were going to get it, it is now versus closer to vacation. Fingers crossed this week goes well and we can get back to normal!
