COVID Day Four
I’m lucky. Mostly it’s like a bad cold. My head is stuffed, and I have coughing and sneezing fits. I can function and perform basic tasks. I didn’t sleep well last night, and I don’t have a lot of energy.
But there’s no fever. My O2 levels are 91+. I still have an appetite, and I can taste what I eat.
My heart rate was over 100, but then I reflected that I’ve been dosing on sudafed, which is basically speed. So that explains that.
Kathy’s still out of town, so I don’t have to worry about infecting her.
I found a bag of wild-caught Gulf shrimp, and so I’ve been participating in a seafood extravaganza. So far this week I’ve cooked shrimp Diane, Thai steamed shrimp, and curried shrimp. I’ve had poached branzino twice.
Tonight will be shrimp korma. And I think I’ll be able to taste it just fine.
