Echoing the “rest” comment above. If it IS Covid then that’s key - regardless of how much you want to be doing stuff around the house, in the garden etc. it won’t all go to hell in a handcart for the sake of you taking it easier for a few weeks, and it’ll certainly be far more likely to end up there if you get long covid!🎉 MORTGAGE FREE (First time!) 30/09/2016 🎉 And now we go again…New mortgage taken 01/09/23 🏡

Take care & look after yourselves. It really does wear you out so enjoy your sofa, blankets and books and watch the to programmes you don’t normally have time to xx3

Thanks all. I promise I've been resting all day, as frankly I feel too poorly to do anything else. My only activity today has been to transfer dry laundry from airer to linen basket. Absolutely pathetic.

@foxgloves self care is key...you are not pathetic, quite the opposite. Do exactly what you feel like and no more. We'll all be here when you post again love Humdinger xx4

Feel better soon foxgloves, you absolutely must give in to the rest and recuperation even if it drives you mad. Fingers crossed you'll be right as rain in a couple or days.2

I hope you feel better soon. You are usually so active it will feel very frustrating not to be able to do things but you must listen to your body not your brain. Your body, on this occasion, knows best.
