I am no longer testing positive for COVID but I am still recovering both physically and mentally from having it. I have this nasty, annoying cough. I sound sick.
It has been two weeks since I was ambushed with a nasty fever and every part of my body being in pain.
I hate being sick. I hate COVID and if you've had it, you understand. If you haven't then you probably think it's nothing or perhaps you are one of those who still think it was a hoax. Yes, a "hoax" on the ENTIRE world. I don’t want to hear any politics about it. It means nothing when you are sick.
Aside from the annoying cough and fatigue, I now worry about being around too many people. Everyone is the enemy now. I cringe being on an elevator right now. I just assume they all have nasty germs and could give it to me again. Honestly people have some nasty habits out in the world. I walk down the sidewalk and I notice people coughing, hacking and spitting. Gross! I'm a little freaked out right now.
I wish we could see COVID. It should either been a green mist or dark smoke.
I have tried to not drive myself crazy figuring out how I got COVID. I just don’t want to get it again. I can’t imagine how much worse it could have been had I not been vaccinated. I’m not going to debate that issue either.
And wearing the mask....I’m wearing a mask more now and I really hate wearing it. I would rather have a shield around me.
I will get over this eventually. Eventually I will let my guard down once again. I will stop wearing my mask and not use hand sanitizer. Only to make myself a target COVID again.
I have heard people downplay COVID by saying “it’s just like the flu”. Well I don’t like getting the flu either.
I will eventually get over this but I’m not happy with this right now. I’m still angry that COVID wasn’t handled right in 2020.
So here I sit coughing between paragraphs and hoping this round with COVID will go away. The experts say I still have a few more weeks to deal with this coughing.
