No idea why I thought itâd be different, but I did my 7 day covid retest and it was instantly positive, like the minute the liquid hit the little thingy.
Really just want the contagious window to end so I can start taking care of myself and leave my bedroom, seven days is a long time to be stuck in a shoebox of a bedroom, even if I canât do much with myself.

Kinda wanky but Iâve been watching lots of POV hiking vids which has semi helped.

Minecraft can be good too, kind of gives the illusion that youâre going somewhere. Iâve got bored with it though. I put it on peaceful because I cbf fighting mobs anymore and canât seem to actually finish any projects

Awww this is so sweet, thank you! But apart from being bed ridden I am also on a completely liquid/puree diet, covid decided to decimate every inch of me in retaliation for missing it for so long, and as a result my mouth is a giant ulcer fest.

Thatâs rough. I hope youâre at least feeling a bit better.
Iâd say if youâre not displaying symptoms but the rats are still + itâs probably okay to go for walks in the open air.
Interestingly open air treatment has been around for some time:

Oh, I am still very much visibly and physically sick, and would not have a good time if I left my bed. But just having the option to make my own food and leave my bedroom if I wanted to would be nice.

This desire to do something means you are on the road to getting better. Your brain has no longer shut you down.

You can go outside for a walk surely (weather permitting).

I think Iâve asked this before but anyway I know you like period dramas. Have you watched The Village? Itâs a true story set in ww1. Itâs on SBS on demand and itâs very good.
Get well soon banana.
bananafungus@aussie.zone âš9â© âšmonthsâ© ago
Yes! I originally tuned in for Maxine Peake but soon found myself really sucked into it. Sort of reminded me of Home Fires which was brilliant (still mad they cancelled it)!
CEOofmyhouse56@aussie.zone âš9â© âšmonthsâ© ago
Maxine Peake is such a good actress. I loved Home Fires too.
Lark Rise to Candleford, Cranford, All Creatures great and small, Land Girls, Parades End, My Mother And Other Strangers, World On Fire are a few more that Iâve watched and liked.
And of course thereâs all those turn back time documentaries that are great to watch.
bananafungus@aussie.zone âš9â© âšmonthsâ© ago
Yes!! All of those are so good, espcially Lark Rise and ACGAS (both versions, although the new one kinda wins out by a little because I love Anna Madley, Samuel West, and Callum Woodhouse) just so fkn cosy, they make me feel all warm and toasty inside.
Youâve probably seen it, but The Durrells is 10/10 period drama, everything about it is excellent!
