white_hartLateral flow tests still negative. I also ordered a postal PCR test yesterday after I found myself wondering if my expensive Dorset Cereals muesli always tasted like sawdust and I'd never noticed it, but I'm not actually expecting it to come back positive.
I didn't get up until about 4pm yesterday, after spending most of the day dozing. At about 10am the postman rang the doorbell with a parcel of fabric, which T brought upstairs and put next to me on the bed, where it lay until about 1pm when I finally managed to summon the energy to open it.
Today when T brought another parcel of fabric upstairs I opened it straight away, and was able to get up at lunchtime and sit on the sofa without a quilt over me. I am taking this as a sign that things are moving in the direction, though I have a tightness around the chest which I didn't have yesterday.
I'm not sure whether I should try to work from home tomorrow or take another day off. At the moment doing almost anything at all seems to leave me feeling wiped out, so maybe I should take another day even if that feels like indulgence rather than risk tiring myself out by trying to work?
