    Covid finally got to me. Grocery order got half delivered so my housemate went to sims footscray a week ago and got the Schroeder Special (coining it as Schrovid). Now I have it so I’m just resting at home with a fever. Quite an anticlimactic end to my covid free streak. Hopefully my chronic fatigue doesn’t play up after this. Am I meant to be doing anything other than resting and staying hydrated? I’m just planning on exclusively resting and playing Baldur’s Gate 3 for the foreseeable future lol

      am just getting over my first bout of COVID myself. Lots of it going around at the moment! Hope your symptoms stay mild.

        Thanks. How is your sense of smell going? Remember you commenting that you lost it a bit ago, hope it comes back :)

          still not back, sadly! I have an oil burner going with enough eucalyptus oil in it to make my eyes water, and still nothing… My doctor said to wait a few more weeks before I start to worry, so for the moment it’s still just an annoyance, but still

      Food helped me heaps. Even when I didnt feel like eating a big healthy meal would give me an hour or so worth of energy back. Lemonade icypoles were clutch too for the sore throat.
