Doing fine for the most part, even though I get worried whenever I have to go outside as if I caught it my mom could as well and for her it would be lethal.

Sounds like you're being reasonably cautious. I'm gonna look up some DIY face mask tutorials for if I ever leave my apartment. We wanna look out for people like your mom <3

I'm not essential personnel and never leave my household, but it turns out most of my job can be done online, so I'm still chillin'!

Sorry to everybody for downplaying it in the beginning. I was trying to be comforting and didn't realize how serious this would be! I still hope that you're choosing to be smart and cautious instead of living with fear. I'm here if anybody needs to talk to somebody Smile

It's alright, Meesh. I think most of us at the beginning wouldn't have thought it would turn out to be that serious. No panicking here, just being cautious and only go out when it's necessary (once a week at best). Just gonna be weird how things will be done for a good while.

I'm doing well. The US is kind of a circus right now, but I'm fortunate enough to have health and good company.

Things are starting to get rationed again where I live (toilet paper, napkins, hand sanitizer, etc.) in part because things are worse than before since we didn't do this right the first time, but also because of Thanksgiving travel which is going to make things way worse going in to December. I'm great, though, everyone I know is in great health.

I canceled my flight home for Christmas today Sad Was supposed to have my wedding tasting, go wedding dress shopping, and see my family for the first time since last Christmas. But I just didn't feel right about traveling during the holidays. Super bummed about it.

Aw, that sucks Sad

Have you pushed your wedding back, too, or has an official date never been set yet?

Our original venue canceled all of their events due to COVID, so we did need to find a new venue. Our new venue didn't have our original date, but they had the next day. So our date got pushed back one day, which I didn't see as a big deal. It's not until next October, so if all goes well with the vaccine, it looks like we'll be in good shape!

Welp, it happened everybody. I got the 'rona. My symptoms have been few and really mild. My fiance has had every symptom in the book, but the severity has been that of a man-cold. Looks like we're riding it out pretty well.

Super glad I cancelled my trip home! Symptoms started the day before what would have been our flight! We cancelled Hanukkah with his (local) parents too, as soon as we had a hint of symptoms.

Yikes, I'm glad you guys aren't doing too bad cause I've heard it varies from person to person.

Do you have any idea where you picked it up from?

The only place we went during the possible time period was to get food. We're thinking it was a local taco stand.

My symptoms came and went really quickly. My fiance is just really tired now. And can't smell, which he has found very amusing.

All better! Fiance says his smell is ~70% back.
