Just a little note to say I’m taking a bit of a break….
‘That rotten virus’ sometimes known as Rona has come to visit our house……again.
And I feel as though I’m nursing a sick child .
Honestly I can’t let The Golfer go out socially by himself without him bringing something unwanted home. We’re on day4 after ‘my throat feels a bit scratchy’ – oh dear 2 red lines!’ Thankfully it’s (so far) not been a repeat of 2yrs agoi
So sitting beside his chair along with the tissues, the hot lemon and honey as well as paracetamol we have the all important antiviral tablets
Let’s just say thank you for the PBS scheme of subsidised medications.
Full cost from manufacturers for the antiviral is $1102.71 – 40 tabs
If you qualify the cost is $31.60 for general pts or $7.70 for concession
(And for those who have reached the combined household safety net threshold it’s ZERO)
Now if he’d only let me know whereabouts in the house he’s going I’d be fine.
Thinking he’s resting in his chair, discover it’s empty- have a quick look outside – no he’s not on the deck.
Oh crikey he’s not wandering round the garden is he. No, not there
Where on earth is he – tap toilet door- no answer. Bang – still no answer so open door- empty.
No noise from shower or moving around in the bathroom- empty
Find him sprawled out across the bed sound asleep. Phew….
Mind you there ‘was’ a bit of heart pumping and fearing the worst when I saw him lying there like that.
Bye…..I’ll be back……sometime 👋
Still Waters 
They seek him here, they seek him there…
Amazing how men can become invisible….

Yucky! But wait, isn’t it summer in your world? usually that virus goes away by summer time, or so it seems here.
We are just beginning that yucky season and I am a bit concerned even though we are so fully vaccinated. The COVID virus is mutating faster than the scientists can keep up. Also, not all people around here believe in vaccinations.

I hope he recovers quickly. I totally understand that heart pounding moment.
I hope you escape, but fear it is unlikely.

I am hopeful for the Golfer. All these diseases are rampant. My sister and bil went to family for Thanksgiving and returned with COVID. It is best to just stay home.

Oh dear. I hope he is feeling better soon and you don’t get the darn virus. In my experience, husband is not the easiest sick person for which to care. Best wishes to both of you.
