watervole | life with coronovirus around

Of the five people in our bubble, four now have Covid (I don't believe my daughter's negative test result- she's got it really badly. She does a very physically demanding job and right now she's struggling with stairs...)

Richard's test came back positive and he's very tired and wrapped up in a blanket and coughing.

I've asked for a postal test, but I know I've got it. I've got virtually identical symptoms to Richard. I just get a bonus runny nose, becuase I get a runny nose with everything.

I'm wiped. Totally.

And food is of almost zero interest.

Oswin's fine. (age 6) She's bouncing with energy. Fortunately she's old enough to invent games, as we don't have the energy (or the voice in my case) to play with her.

Scraps of yarn have a loop tied in them to become a comet. Comet (do not ask why, as I don't know), lives in a clamshell (a circle of red felt folded in half).

But she's now spent two days without a walk (and we normally go a minimum of half an hour a day when she's with us) - she'll be bouncing off the walls by tomorrow.

We've got it bad, but her parents have got it even worse, and none of us are safe to drive, so she stays here
