I Cannot Take It Down

It's January 8 today, I was supposed to remove the Christmas tree during the weekend but I was a bummer that time. So I postponed it. So, 3 days ago, on January 6, my niece went to the room (their room) and woke me up. She told me to get my clothes in the house next door (my house). Her father was tested positive via antigen test. So I transferred my clothes from my house to my brother's house. Day 3 of my brother-in-law's home quarantine at my house. No symptoms whatsoever. He left for work on January 3rd, and stays at the site. He only goes home Saturday night. This week is different. His workmate was tested positive of Covid. Their management decided to test all employees. Many of them were tested positive. And because my house is not yet renovated, he cannot cook his meal. We cook food here at my brother's and give him food. My sister delivers the food at the door. My brother-in-law will only open the door once my sister is back home. Hope all is well with you and your family.

I’m so sorry. I truly hope he gets well soon and no one else in the family gets sick.

@DianneN I hope so. The kids are not going out because they are vulnerable. My friend texted me and said that he and his sister and his niece are down with fever. No one will buy meds for them. I told him to order online. Or I can buy for them and deliver to his house.

@jobelbojel You’re welcome. It’s so scary, but hopefully the symptoms won’t be too serious l

If there is a family who is positive for Covid, don't panic too much. I tested positive for covid last year. I immediately diligently bask in the morning sun, not stressed, eat lots of vitamins. I eat a lot of citrus fruits, eat a lot of vegetables, drink pure milk, drink vitamins D, E,C and B. And keep praying and being enthusiastic, confident in God's healing. And I recovered. We hope that your family who has been infected with COVID will recover soon and stay strong and healthy again.

That doesn't sound good at all. It's nice he isn't showing any symptoms, though. Good luck to him.

@DaddyEvil We are not sure if he got Omicron or Delta. But I am guessing it is Omicron. After 7 days, the RHU Health Unit told him to have another swab test.

I hope that the virus won't affect his immune system. Though he already got his 2nd dose months ago.

@jobelbojel It shouldn't be worse than a bad cold, but yes, I hope he comes out fine from this.

I am thankful that I was able to get the house next door. I used it in August when I had symptoms too. I isolated myself from them.

You'll get that tree down, eventually. We're taking down our decorations one day at a time. Leaving our blow up christmas tree for last.

I think once the quarantine is done. The boxes are in the other house. I could not get it there for now.
