geowenchIt took me all of October to recover from COVID. I'm just now beginning to feel more or less back to normal, though I'm still coughing and bringing up gunk. The only other thing of any note that I did in October was to plant a small patch of garlic.
Tomorrow I'm flying out to CA for the week -- we are having "team building" on W/TH, but I'm flying out on Sunday so that I'll have two days on my own to see friends. I've been with this company for three months now and I am still really struggling with just exactly what the #$%* I'm supposed to be doing all day. I'm finding it harder than I expected to be so isolated all day at home. But I am happy to not be at my old job (I had a drink with several of my old colleagues a week or two ago, and not a damn thing has changed), and I really enjoy the big paycheck, so I'm trying to figure it out.
I'm slightly anxious about being around so many people next week - I've never met any of them, plus they just dropped the mandatory masking inside rule. I will be masked when indoors, I think. I don't want to get it AGAIN. Plus, it's winter and there are other bugs going around. I did get my annual flu shot a few days ago though, so hopefully I'm covered there. Will get the COVID bivalent booster in December (you're supposed to wait about 3 months after having it). So hopefully my immune systems is primed to take care of me. Fingers and toes crossed.
