Painful sides when I blow my nose. I haven't coughed much, but when you do MAN is it agressive - it catches you off guard (I've been so careful to breathe through my nose as much as possible, although a runny nose has frequently kicked that one into touch)

Haven't had painful sides (from coughing) like that for MANY years

Steven has nearly lost his voice, and is feeling generally run down
Nathan struggling with temperature fluctuations
Peter is looking run down, and is very slow (we miss his joyous smile! :-( )
Jo is perking up a bit, but her cough, while pretty mild, is causing her upset

I even went outside to empty a bin...very slowly, and cos we couldn't get any more in it!!

I'm hoping these are positive signs, but I'm equally aware that good moments are followed by bad ones, so none of us are taking any improvements for granted

@tanjaostman tea tree oil is simply amazing! We will look into that room infuser thingy you mentioned at some point

@Berrybunchfamily @tanjaostman covid is so crazy how it effects ppl so differently. Even within my family, some were totally knocked down while one brother and his wife built a big storage shed while he had to be off work!
I'm so sorry you all got hit so hard! I'm grateful you all are healthy to begin with!!

@MaryMamuzich @tanjaostman it's very bizarre! I've only had flu a few times. The last time was a moving day, in the snow....which we had to do in our own - there was no help and no possibility of delaying....
