Getting covid on your birthday requires time off !

Me being off for the next 2 days is going to be hard. Lots of 7Brew and I’m Already shopping. It’s only Day 1 !! I may need to sneak off to Scheels and spend my bday $$

2/17 Edited to

... Read moreGetting COVID on your birthday is definitely a tough break, but it also offers a unique chance to prioritize rest and self-care. In my own experience, the first couple of days are crucial to recovery, so taking those days off work without guilt is important. I found that having favorite comforting drinks, like the 7Brew coffee drive-thru, brings a bit of joy and normalcy even in isolation. It's amazing how simple pleasures can lift your spirits when you're stuck at home. Besides resting, I also found it helpful to plan small treats to look forward to while quarantining, like sneaking out for a quick visit to a favorite local store such as Scheels to use birthday money or browsing online shops. This kind of retail therapy, even if done responsibly, can boost morale during isolation. It’s also worth preparing in advance for days like this by stocking up on essentials such as Albuterol Sulfate Inhalation Aerosol if you have respiratory symptoms, to manage breathing difficulties safely at home. Additionally, organizing entertainment like concert tickets or favorite meals (for example, Mac's BBQ available at Cain’s Ballroom shows) helps to create enjoyable distractions. Overall, while having COVID on your birthday means time off work and canceled plans, it can also be a moment to slow down, practice self-kindness, and find small joys at home. Remember to reach out to friends and family virtually, keep hydrated, and follow your healthcare provider’s advice. This way, you can turn an unexpected situation into a memorable, restful birthday experience.
