    If it is 1st day with symptoms you are on day 0, that's what the nurse topd me the health department uses for their 10 day count. It's actually 11 days for a 10 day quarantine.

    Dr.'s office called, said there is nothing they can really prescribe right now. Take ibuprofen and tylenol for sore throat and body aches and mucinex for congestion. Call them if I get an increased or prolonged fever, shortness of breath or severe congestion.

    Just went and picked up some mucus relief from walgreens drive thru.

    My daughter lost day care early in the covid crisis, it was the best thing ever. My wife and I went up to the daughters Monday's and Fridays to look after the little fella, it was awesome we bonded in a way that would not have happened under normal circumstances. Sucks for you though, good luck.

    Lots of stress in school, but thanks for asking.

    He's on one of his few breaks in the next couple years, so he's out snowboarding tonight.

    Think it's time to pull a bunch of meat from the freezers and thaw for some jerky. I was lacking time, now have plenty of it
