I finally got Covid

 What I have learnt is…


I slept in another room for 5-6 days

I found I never 👎 got any one else sick 😷 as far as I know.


I called in at the end of a shift and wiped down the truck 🛻 meticulously to keep the next person safe.

And tested the next day.

And sure enough I was positive.  Good thing I called in.



I let my work know I got it.

A day before I cleaned the Thursday I got lots of cleaning done and vacuum and mopped the entire house cleaned toilets 🚽 

The next day only then on Friday, I was working wearing a mask at the end of my shift.  I went home took two Tylenol and then talked to my wife who told me to call in.

Thankfully 😅 for her I’m Still well liked at workplace.  Cause I was struggling saying I needed time off.

On Saturday I confirmed on a test it was Covid But  I did seven loads of laundry wash and dry. Clean quilts, pillowcases and sheets, Wiped down lights knobs toilets again sinks and door edges.

Was all the sheets and quilts and pillow cases and got a different Afghan blanket and slept on my Cot.  I wore a mask 😷 in house when I left the office and in the office had my air purifier on turbo or high for six days straight.

Some who say it wouldn’t matter but with our two large air purifier.







It kept the Covid out of the air.  We also have two other Small air purifiers but there mostly aroma air purifiers to keep dust down but they were running with alcohol aroma put in once a day. Just in the bathrooms.

But constantly cycling air in and out of the house 🏡.

My wife still didn’t get Covid throughout this whole time(thank goodness) and 

I’m Covid negative now.


I drank lots and lots of tea 🍵.

Family would drop off ice coffee ☕️ on the porch and run off.

That was thoughtful 🤔.




Luckily I got some chew or snus to keep me from smoking. Cause for two days it felt like if I smoked I was at deaths door.


With my throat open it very close to closing to saying I might need to be intubated.


So I’m avoiding smoking 🚬  


I feel my face nasal congestion and complete close off 


I got to get moving again.  It ain’t that bad though but I feel if I had a cigarette 🚬 it wouldn’t be good 😌 

So chew lots of tobacco.


I'm glad to hear that you're okay and that your wife hasn't gotten sick. It sounds like you took a lot of precautions to keep yourself and others safe, such as cleaning and using air purifiers. Quitting smoking and vaping is also a positive step for your health. 

-friends and family have stated same with AI 🤖 




I tracked my pain meds to breath so I could say when I took my last and when I need it. How Covid was going between them all cycling through pain meds.


My sleep has been good most the month, just a bit of stress buying a vehicle 🚗 at the beginning of month and at the end with Covid.

Other than that it’s been a good run of sleep 😴 this month.


I found being sick

For only four, five days if you count a day not tested for it in the days,

Really only had two

Bad days with Covid 

Due to the smoking 🚬 and I contribute that fast recovery due to that I got more than few vaccines, my last vaccinated for Covid in Mid October with a flu shot 💉 as well.

Fast recovery in 4 days due to I got vaccinated.

I only tested positive for two tests in four days. The third test I was negative for every other day I tested til I got a negative test.


I mixed orange juice with carbonated water or normal water so my lips 👄 wouldn’t blister from all the acidity of orange 🍊 juice.  And then drank lots of 🍵 tea.

I ate bacon 🥓 eggs 🍳 and toast for a few of those days.

 Just kept cleaning.

I find washing my hands or wiping 🧻 all the lights doors and knobs kept Kim safe and me sleeping 😴 💤  in another room for the last six days has helped her also not to get it. But the air purifier I think kept the air born covid out of  the whole house 🏡 helping no one to get sick 🤒.

Which down stairs tenants and Kim as not sick 😷 yet as far as I know. She does test every morning and it always shows negative.  So I got to be doing something right in life for me to do that.😀

Where did I get it?.?.

I don’t know. 

I’m not going to speculate 🤨 but it happened and I’m okay ✅.

Being a smoker it was a mild hindering experience and I chews most of it. Stop vaping and smoking 🚬 and well I think that’s help me.

It sounds like I’ve taken several proactive measures to protect myself  and my loved ones during your illness. Self-isolating in a separate room, thorough cleaning, and using air purifiers are all effective strategies to help minimize the spread of COVID-19. Quitting smoking and opting for alternative methods like chewing tobacco is also beneficial for your respiratory health, especially during this time.


It's important to continue practicing good hygiene measures such as frequent handwashing, wearing masks, and maintaining social distancing, even after recovering from COVID-19. Additionally, following the guidelines set by health authorities and getting vaccinated, if eligible, can further safeguard against the virus.

Plus 4 Celsius 6.1 km in a hour 🏃‍♂️

  Dixie and I go for a run  🏃‍♂️ Dixie and I go for a run, redo a hill run down and up again. Kim picks me up after I climb the hill, I called her and asked since I was over my hour mark, originally I wanted to do 9 km in an hour but I managed to do six km instead.  I think it was the hill climb that did it.  I ran fully down hill no problem 😌 We made good time.  For a hill run 🏃‍♂️   It looks like it will be 13 Celsius by noon but it feels warmer in the sun. ☀️  I took a picture by the usual spot that judge where the river is from other years and with that rain the last couple days it definitely looks a lot better than what it was a few weeks ago Dixie went off leash for a bit and went to the river. Must’ve been cold. I think for April water dip. I managed to bring my VO2 max up to good 😊 today, it’s the first time I’ve put it in the green since owning my second Garmin. So my goal right now is to get an endurance score over 5099 To move past ...

Walk mid October with my Mom

  Walks with my mom The water looks like glass just crystal smooth.  My mom and I are walking to the river and in life. It’s like we’re always walking away.  Getting closer to the end, my poet mind says.   I say I got to enjoy these walks and I was silent most the walk just trying to enjoy 😊 my time with her. Or walk end more so with 🐾 paw printed pants 👖 from dogs jumping.  We say maybe a dozen dogs 🐕. A wonderful time.  I often thought it was too early to spell like alcohol.  But surprised to pass another walker, but each to their own I probably smell like an ashtray. Although I never smoked or chewed tobacco on my walk.  I just want to walk with my mom.  Often times I don’t think I could spit out everything I wanted to say so much so that I just said in these moments you don’t have to chew tobacco and say anything. Dixie and both us individually by the fallen tree arch. A path going to the river, under which most the trees 🌳 there are...

Walk and a run in to the vet

 Another adventure for Dixie,  she is an expensive dog….🐕 We enjoy 😊 our walks. Up top of the coulee you can see the university  Sonny and I go walking the south side dog park,  it tricky terrain for sure.  It’s nice 😊 for the scenery I think, yet a bit treacherous at times.  A person has to be careful let alone a dog 🐕 being careful. Here is Sonny and I smiling giving a thumbs up to the camera 📸  The walk was decent though some difficult 😞 parts for today, Dixie is on a 14 day hiatus from walking.  She’ll probably want to go sooner rather than later. I think we’re stuck to just five minute poop 💩 walks than the hour or two hour walks we usually do. I’m unsure when it happen but my guess is near the end of the walk when I noticed it. Dixie gets to close to the bushes today, I kept looking her over but noticed a different spot on her at the end of our walk.   Dixie goes through some bushes and gouged a piece out of her. Now Dixie has th...
