Thursday I had my doctor's appointment. I got a referral to a neurologist for my arm and hand issues. I didn't get pain meds because they would compromises the neurology tests. 

I cam home, fell asleep, woke up the next day. Felt awful. Thought it was the wildfire smokw, which got through a lot of our old windows and was really bad last week (air still poor)Slept most of the day. Saturday I tested positive for Covid and have been mostly in bed since. I am on day three of Paxlovid. Not doing horrible, not doing great, but obviously not in any danger or anything like that. Everything but strawberry Jell-o tastes like ashes, and the Jell-o isn't exactly good. I'm isolating and Winky is bored. I am too. Can't read orwatch anything. can't draw . Just very weak and dizzy and s;eeping a lot. trying to stay hydrated, need to do a better job. My face is all rea dna d puffy and gross. 

It's been mostly bad because I've lost weeks of work from my arm and now this has me flat on my back. Everything's a mess. I'm the only source of income in our household for the most part so this has been a distressing time. I'm pretty confident things will get back on track I just don't want to fall too far behind on finances. I'm sure I'll be good in the standard two weeks. 

IN the meantime, art orders from the recent sale are delayed, sorry. I still have the Predator Omnibus package to finish as well. Everything asap.

Okay. Hope everyone's good, will work to make up for all the lack of posts hhen the air clears. Be well, stay healthy

Apolgoies for the terrible typos etc the hand is reached desktop type limit for today i think and I'm leaving it as is. off to bed.

Wednesday Lee Friday ?

You hang in there, man. Everyone is rooting for you! And yeah, Paxlovid is the worst. Tastes like drinking spoiled grapefruit juice out of an ashtray.

Eric Hamilton

Take care of yourself. You will get through it. Things will get better.

Sorry to hear about this, Evan. Glad you are on an antiviral, I think that helped lessen my symptoms when I had it. Hopefully resting up will help your hand too. Feel better soon.

Kevin Campbell

Here's to a speedy recovery and resolution for all of it! Hope the antiviral at least shortens the length of time....I had it in January and it was too long since symptoms had started to take it. After the first 3-4 days (when it was more flu-like) my symptoms were mild....except for some stomach issues...that lingered like a month and a half. Avoid those! Lol.

Sorry this has all hit you at once. Let us know if you need anything, and give Winky a scritch for us.

I hope you get past this rough patch soon. *hugs*

Tim Kocher

Oof, what a pig pile of crap to hit all at once. Hope for the very best outcomes ASAP.

Goober

Get well soon, idk if you're religious but I'm praying for you.

Erik C. Jones

Hope you feel better soon, Evan. Covid kicked my ass, wouldn't wish it on anyone. Well, maybe a few people.

COVID (and Paxlovid) gave me one shitty month where I couldn't write, but then I bounced back. Hoping for your recovery as well, sir.

Evan Dorkin

Thx, yeah, I'm starting week 3 and i'm a lot better but it's hard to stay awake. I'm trying to clean up and do laundries because things are a mess and the simplest actions tire me out. Sucks.
