I'm just getting over my first case of covid. My doc told me I was low risk but did quality for Paxlovid. I got the free prescription filled but my nurse sister in law said sometimes Paxlovid is associated with rebound covid. I wasn't having any breathing problems so I didn't take the med.

I had a bit of a cold and my wife had a little worse of a cold than me but nothing serious. It's so weird how it affects everyone differently.

Apparently the current CDC guidelines are that you can go back to work even if you are still testing positive as long as you are wearing a high quality mask. Check for yourself, I'm not a medical person.

Also, the test kits we had turned out to be expired. We bought some from our local pharmacy for around $10 each and we understand we can get reimbursed from our insurance company.

Best wishes.

Lol my dad plowed the driveway once early morning, we plowed it again later in the day, and then in the evening bc we use an ATV and a side by side. Had to roof rake the garage twice so it doesn’t cave in (it’s already bowed pretty bad) and did the neighbors house twice. Only shoveled the deck and dog pen once tho. Got my workout for sure

In the apartment building next to our house in Bangor, they are doubling the rent for what looks to be, a fucking slum. A few residents have already moved but a few more remain until their lease is up. I can't imagine anywhere costing $1400 a month in fucking Bangor. All the apartments ive seen or lived in were fucking garbage
