This is new for me--my first post from my phone. Never done this before. It's partly because I'm not feeling that great. I've mostly been in my room all night.
I did go to work today, as I wanted to finish stuff up, but I already told my boss I likely wasn't coming in tomorrow. I didn't have the classic COVID-19 symptoms (no cough, no fever, no trouble breathing). However, I felt run down. My boss thought I looked pale, which is concerning since I'm so pale naturally. I just feel it's better if I stay home tomorrow. I do live with two people who are 65+, and mom has some underlying conditions, so yeah. Err on the side of caution.
...And then earlier tonight, while bending over a little to get something from a low shelf, I found myself wheezing a little. Great. It's only when I was bending over; I seem okay when lying down on my back. (Hooray for my adjustable bed. I can keep my head elevated.) Still...hmm. I've had no obvious encounters with a known infected person, so I doubt I can get tested. Things seem mild right now. But this is something to keep an eye on, that's for sure. And maybe best to stay away from mom and dad.
