hi angel friends, updates. more of us have tested positive for covid.

Good morning angel friends, a special thank you for all your well wishes, prayers, and support as we cope through this rough time. i want to write this short journal. i'm feeling very achey,weak, and it's a challenge to sit up. i'm on our couch here,and will be sitting back often today, resting. last evening, Alyssa picked up some covid in home tests, for us. they come 2 per pack. we were taking the tests in our front yard. Kayla tested positive, i also tested positive. Holly thankfully tested negative, it's a huge relief, as she has underlying conditions, asthma. my mom, Lisa, her bf, Kayla, and i are all experiencing cold/flu like symptoms. couch, sore throat, feeling weak, achey, and fevers that are coming and going. my throat was burning/sore in the middle of the night. the first symptoms i began to experience, was the achey, weak feeling, eventually sniffle/cough, and fever. we're all taking precautions. was  very emotional evening. my dad's got a cough, and is being hestitant about being tested. we are trying to persuade him to get tested. my mom has an extra test. this has hit us really hard, and suddenly. we're taking precautions. Holly and i are wearing masks downstairs here and distancing. i'm in the living room, and she's in the bedroom over there. my appetite is good, and my throat is less sore this morning. Holly is being so  wonderful and helpful to us all, she had stocked upon all kinds of medicinal teas, throat coat tea, cough drops, honey, cough syrup. i had some tylenol last evening, i also had some cough syrup before going to sleep, and slept on my right side. Alyssa mentioned, we all need tomake sure we continue well with the fluids, she works at a nursing home. She gave my mom and Holly, 2 N95 masks, it's very nice of her. we're all checking in on eachother. i'm very slow, and had a hard time getting out of bed this morning, feeling weak and achey. i'm thankful to be sitting up now and i have my fleece blanket wrapped around me here. i feel very thirsty. i'm drinking water. we are very hopeful, to get well soon. Holly is gonna get re-tested in the upcoming days. it's very worrysome, and scary, this outbreak of covid, and how sudden it hit us. Kayla is quarantining in her addition. Taylynn may be getting tested this weekend too. 

we're trying to keep our spirits up. this has definitely re-railed our routines, daily schedules, but we're keeping strong. my mom and i both believe, that on tuesday, we may have been exposed to covid, when we went with Lisa to get treats. she was first in our family to test positive. she has underlying conditions, including her heart,as she had a heart attack in 2016. her bf isn't doing well, but thankfully they were able to talk on the phone with my mom last evening. we'll continue with the good care. we all are gonna make it through this. i'm getting ready to take 2 more tylenol after i have some blueberry fig newton bars this morning :) i feel very hundy, and thirsty. Alyssa got some chicken and rice soup for us. Jenn, and Mike dropped off outside, an air purifier for my mom for our living room, it's very nice of them and Holly and i have an air purifier here in our downstairs. We all want to be ok ,and are hoping,  praying our health takes a turn for the better, and that no one else tests positive.

Thank you angel friends, for sticking with us. we all will be getting tested again, as we feel better, with each day forward, we hope to all be covid free. Holly and i are gonna put some movies on today, keeping with the good care, keeping hydrated, and will post a journal this evening with updates.  we love you angel friends <3 big group caring, comforting friendship hug :) We hope you all have a peaceful saturday :)
