another day, another ban from Reddit.
Who knew asking for reliable sources would get me banned!
Reddit is off my menu now - permanently.
Recommendations for covid cures solicited! Vaguely sensible things, not vinegar up yah clachah/s who am I kidding? Daft ideas go
You can kill it with chilli - not my idea
A cat applied to the lap as a makeshift heat pack.
Then snacks.
Chicken soup wonโt cure you but it sure will make you feel better. Panadol or nurofen will help with fever and aches.
Garlic and horseradish tablets to dry out the snot. Lots of fluids. Rest. Panadol. Eat little bits when you're feeling like it, I lived on rice crackers and cream cheese last time.
I've had it twice. First time was very rough, solid 2 weeks of existing on the plane of pain.
Black lemon honey tea helps, if only to get sugar and water into you. Bread as it's a neutral inoffensive food. Lots of water, sleep whenever you can to jump forward in time.
Keep cosy and comfortable
Wish I could help, but I can't. So far I've missed having it. Sending get well soon vibes.
I seem to remember that icypoles/icecream apparently helps a bit with symptoms. Worth a try.
I'm on round 2 official, but probably 4. Pretty sure I spotted you at the thing, but piked on waving.
No probs - interesting crowd. Enjoyed a few convos with random strangers there. Loved the singing.
Where there is David there will be singing! And oft intentionally daft astrological predictions
My kind of guy
every time I think I've had it I've tested neg. I think it's was just bad testing
I found lots of sleep, vit d , and drinking water helped the best

Since Nellie has decided to leave for a wifi-less locale, perhaps this specimen might be a new mascot
I have a huge list of garden chores, most chores are very small and easy. I will do those first otherwise, overwhelm.

sleep driving me crazy ...lol
I am sleeping so well now there is no back pain and I can sleep in any position. Comfort now means comfort, not least pain.
but I wake up 5 hours later ๐๐๐
Have a nap.
It's a beautiful sunny day to sit and watch the remaining cypress trees fall.
The weather forecast says mostly cloudy, but someone forgot to tell the clouds. I got to an early start today, the dog has been walked, breakfast eaten, I have watered the front nature strip and moved about 6 carts of dirt so far. I think of moving the dirt as an arm strengthening exercise, but it's really a whole body thing. Every shovel full also involves squats and bracing all the core muscles. Which means everything should hurt tomorrow, not just the arms!
Edit: looks like the clouds were no available, the forecast has been changed to mostly sunny. I've moved another bunch of soil, at the rate I'm going I might even get finished by lunchtime.
