(Day 19) March 25th – Today is the first day since I’ve been sick (for those counting that would be March 6th) that I put in an 8 hour workday. Zzzzz.
(Day 20) March 26th – I’m getting a fever again Scale of 1-10, 10 being the most tired. I’m at an 8. I JUST FREAKING WOKE UP. Enough of this exhaustion. I’ve been sick ALL MONTH. I actually have work to do before my last day tomorrow. I HATE EVERYTHING. Send coffee.
(Day 21) March 27th – I just screamed “TAKE THESE MINI CHOCOLATES AWAY FROM ME” in case anyone wonders how I’m handling stress tonight.
(Day 22) March 28th – HWMMS caught me in the dark crying, quietly. He told me he knows I empathetic and taking it all in but I need to take care of myself and to let him take care of all the monsters outside… I don’t deserve him.
(DAY 23) March 29th – I slept like a log through a thunderstorm apparently? Woke up at 3pm. Ate lunch. Fell asleep with laptop open, woke up at 8pm. #AssumeCovid19 is exhausting me.
