Yep. Just went back to work today. Pretty mild case. Basically felt like a head cold. Did enjoy catching up on a lot of sleep though. Got it when I took my mother to the hospital, as she ended up testing positive then, I did a couple days later, and one of my brothers, and his wife also have it. Fun times.
Bonus: my girlfriend just got done with pneumonia after fighting it all of August. Been like this all year for us taking care of our mothers and their health issues. I am about done with 2024.

“Liked” only just to show support.
My mom passed around Christmas but we still look after my MIL. Today, my wife woke up with vertigo. My schedule for today has changed, needless to say.

Sorry to hear about your mom. We had a bad Christmas a few years back in 2020. It kind of changes one's outlook for the holidays. It seems to loom in the background while everyone tries to be festive.
I hope all goes well with your wife. Stay well.

She has these episodes every couple years. It should resolve. I was just pointing out that I get how not feeling well yourself impacts your caregiving responsibilities.

My 'version' of COVID is really up and down. I will feel ok or even good for 3 or 4 hours, then it comes back down pretty fast. The oddest is my sense of smell and taste comes and goes like that as well. If I feel ok, I can taste. When the wave comes down, I lose the sense of taste and smell.

I hope it breaks up soon. Kind of sucks you have waves like that. Just when you start feeling like maybe it going to break, you go back down. Must be frustrating.

Drought has turned me into a lawn guy. Never really cared about grass beyond the basic desire to keep it cut and orderly. But about one-third of my meager yard has been burnt to a dusty crisp and I stare at it every day and think ... Man, I'm excited to eventually plant some new grass.

You can blame me - it has not rained since I got new gutters. Then I started planning a family get together that involved our fire pit (hot dogs, s’mores, etc) this weekend and now outdoor fires are prohibited.
It will rain Sept 28. My daughter’s outdoor wedding will break the drought.

Sounds about right. (Also, Mazel Tov!)It will rain Sept 28. My daughter’s outdoor wedding will break the drought.

Anyone know what's going on around 70 and 33? Something big is on fire, pushing out alot of smoke. Noticed it while getting on to 70 from 270 on the west side and I can still see it from my backyard in Pickerington, so, yea, something big.

It’s been burning since last night hasn’t it?
Edit: Marion Franklin area too I think

Evidently I've been in my work-from-home space too long today. That's, like, due south of where I live and yet I hadn't seen it. (OTOH, my windows generally face east...)
EDIT: Oh. It's the southeast intersection by Alum Creek, not over by Grandview. That might be why I haven't seen it.

Apparently it did start at like 2am but I didn't see anything going into work because it's still dark out at 430am.

Yep
The Midwestern city of Columbus, Ohio, ranked as the city with the fastest car commute, at around 22 minutes. It’s three minutes faster than the average 25 minutes commuters spend getting to and from work.
Gonzalez says Columbus was the only city that got a perfect score just for its speed.
“It got a 96% when it comes to the cost, so these two categories really bumped it into the top overall spot,” she added.
Over the course of a year, the difference in time adds up to 13 hours, according to the Lyft report. Columbus, Ohio, is one of only two cities that does not experience slower travel during commuting hours, with it being 1.3% faster.
The report also found that Columbus is one of the lower-density cities where parking is often under $40 a month, compared to New York City, where it costs at least $350.
