Thanks for the well wishes! My biggest concern was shopping for our little Thanksgiving dinner, but I ordered everything through Instacart and it will all be delivered tomorrow.

Yeah July for me, bad cold symptoms. Every time it comes up I am probably over insistent in emphasing that I've had 4 shots and am very glad those shots kept me out of ICU.AndyinPA wrote: ↑Sun Nov 20, 2022 12:21 amIt's good to be reminded of that.

Hmmm… that test you did, the one that came out positive, did you put it in your mouth or did you pee on it?poplove wrote: ↑Sun Nov 20, 2022 6:30 pmYeah, no loss of taste and my appetite is pretty good.

That's funny! When I told hubby I was craving Chinese he asked if I was pregnant!

So, this morning I got a text from the Southern Nevada Health District asking me to fill out a form regarding my covid test. Stuff like when did the symptoms start, where did I go on those days, did I hug anyone, etc. After I filled it out a very nice lady called me to ask more questions, which I gladly answered. The good news is I'm feeling fine, the runny nose has stopped, no fever, and I can go out in public starting tomorrow as long as I wear a mask for the next 5 days. Which is great because the bad news is InstaCart delivered everything I ordered except the dang turkey breast!

Good news. Sorry about the turkey.

Our Thanksgiving plans have been upended. Our SIL's mother has tested positive for Covid 19 so she and her husband won't be coming.
Whether SIL's brother and brother's wife will be coming is uncertain at this point. They don't live with the parents but they live in the same city and see a lot of them.
So instead of 9 for Thanksgiving we are definitely down to 7 and might be down to 5. If that happens Mrs. V and I will be the only turkey eaters. We have a 20 lb turkey. Time to look up recipes for leftover turkey.
