HIPPYVALLEY Posted October 21, 2022 Share Posted October 21, 2022 In non-weather news I am on day three of Covid. Very odd experience. 24 hours of a slight scratchy throat and then waves of heavy fatigue, chills and headache. No congestion, no fever still have taste and smell just want to sleep a lot which I have been doing. It certainly has not been pleasant but I am doing OK and I’m about to take the dog on a walk in the sunshine. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The variants have mutated now so that most people have cold and flu like symptoms...but nothing severe. I had it in June and it was fairly mild.

Now they’re saying people can go back to work, masked, five days after a positive test as long as symptoms are not acute. Doctor also told me Covid is everywhere around here it’s just not reflected in state numbers because nobody goes to official testing sites anymore. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To me , winter is ruined if Dec is bad Expand I agree, it’s all because it’s truly the darkest month of the year and getting that nice white blanket with festivities really brightens the mood. The problem with December is that it is statistically, from a climo standpoint, the easiest month to be punted by Mother Nature. It’s the most likely month to fail of the Dec/Jan/Feb/March period in terms of snowfall. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or into NW MA or S VT big elevations with the buried bodies. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
