Corona comes to Bugtussle ... maybe

Been helping my youngest daughter w/some projects at her place and spent last night so I could get a good run at things today.

She goes in at 4am and I was up just shortly after she left this mornin (have a hard core case of early riser-idous). Doin the usual mornin routine, lotsa coffee and nicotine, when the door opens and there she is, lookin a bit haggard and confused at about 5:30. "They sent me home with a fever and I'm having a shortage of breath, my side hurts and I have a clanging headache" she says. Ruh-roh!

So, we get in touch w/her doctor and at 8:05 we're in the Docs parking lot where they come out to the car, take her temp (normal) and check her oxygen levels, which were also normal.

So, they take her inside, administer a test for strep throat, nope, then another test for the flu and again, nope, no flu. Then they take a culture to send in for Corona testing and give her a note saying she's under quarantine till the results come back early next week.

'Course if she has it, so do I after the 2hrs or so we spent together in her car yesterdee gatherin supplies, though at this point it's all unconfirmed, just really not lookin all that good either.

Anyhoosal, so we headed to my place and picked up some supplies, clothes, etc and I'm stayin here at her place where we can keep an eye on each other till we get the results back from her test.

I feel fine and she's definitely not all that unwell so who knows? In the mean time we're enjoyin some laughs, cookin together, workin 'round her casa and I've been readin up on what to do should we both wind up with this wacked out virus.
