Covid-19 Part 3

Zaky and I were testing ART at 6ish on Monday morning and we are both cleared! Yay! I drove him to school and am grateful that with the new legislation, we are allowed to proceed with normal activities so long as we are tested ART -ve and each test is valid for 24 hours. I have also arranged for him to skip Student Care for the week. I am not sure if that is intended to protect him from potential risk or vice versa. The boy is very glad regardless of who is more risky. LoL. 

I took advantage of the -ve result and did my HIIT outdoor after jumping around and disturbing my downstairs neighbor for the weekend. I think I can hit the gym or go for a run the next time with a -ve ART. Hehe. 

Lil Shauna enjoyed her morning chasing another x episodes of Supergirl and she has started to read Harry Potter too. The magic is contagious. 
Monday passed uneventfully. Daddy Lim said that he felt the same and the only same complaint was the loss of smell. Poor Daddy Lim.

This morning, Lil Shauna joined us for the ART testing. The -ve result on the kits are blessings and we are counting down to the last day of testing on Friday. Not that we are confined (no longer under the new rule) but the worry of infection is real and the 7th day mark is like an invisible victory milestone to indicate that we are out of the woods and have survived infection-free while living in the same household. 

I drove the kids again, dropping Lil Shauna at the station and Zaky to school. I was forced to drive when Daddy Lim was on bed rest in last March after his ops and got slightly better in driving but obviously still needed like so much more practice. I kissed the curb this morning and almost ran a red light. Everyday is like a new adventure when I drive. Hoho. 

Popo cleared her ART this morning too. She finally went for her booster jab after seeing how real the infection risk is. 

Daddy Lim again said that he feels the same. I thought he coughed lesser than yday but maybe it was just bcos I was too busy at work and didn't pay him too much attention. LoL. He did joyfully tell us that he thought he could pick up slight taste and faint smell since afternoon. I hope he is not imagining it bcos he had been trying to imagine what the different food taste like in attempts to make eating more enjoyable. 

Yay, counting down - 3 more days for us and 6 more for Daddy Lim. Fighting!
