Winner on Mischief Monday


 

The last of the snow left our yard on April 23rd. Therefore we proclaim Millie and Walter, holders of April 25th as the winner. Please email our Lady at leeandphodATbellDOTnet to arrange for your prize!

Thanks to everyone for playing along. It helps make the snow melting and slow start to spring a little more fun!

Get well soon Man!

Now on to the mischief. Last week, starting on Tuesday, the Man got really sick. His rapid tests said it wasn't Covid. Then on Thursday, Lady started to show symptoms. Her's were very mild but enough to screen her out of work. As a health care worker she could get a lab test, so Friday afternoon she drove to the city for this. She was very pleasantly surprised to get mouth rinse and gargle test and not the up the nose test. She was grateful she took time to read the website and saw if she hadn't eaten or drank for 15 minutes she could be eligible for a less invasive test. Her results were back less than 12 hours (mind you she was sleeping when they came in) and they were negative. By day 3, her mild symptoms were nearly gone. For whatever reasons, she did not get nearly as sick as the Man, who has been really quite ill. 

Since he got sick, Lady has stayed away from Man as much as possible. They try and maintain 6 feet (easy in our too big house) and he sleeps in the guest room. We hope in the next day or two he feels better because as we prepare this, he has been rather ill for 6 days! We also hope Lady doesn't get any more of it.

    Congrats to M&W!!! And am glad you are snow free at last.

    POTP for the Man - maybe he'll think twice about going on cruises while pandemics are still about? One negative test is not enough, needs followup... it could be straightforward influenza of some strain or other. Either way, unpleasant and I wish speedy recovery. Hugs and wags, YAM-aunty xxx

    1. Hi, The man has done a lot of tests and they were all negative, so it looks like he passed! Also, given the timing of it, it seems he picked it up on his travels home, so through the airports or on a plane. sigh!

  10. We hope your peeps get better real fast! There's been a crummy rotten cold going around the nursing home where I work.(I hoped I wouldn't catch it, but it finally hit me on Sunday.) Fortunately nobody was covid positive.
