I am feeling a bit better than yesterday, but still feel awful. I have a lot more sympathy for my son who has had to isolate twice, but I have the company of my wife while he had none.
Yesterday my wife and I watched all of Happy Valley which was the plus side of feeling so unwell. Although I do feel sorry for myself, I could be worse, one of the doctors where I work got COVID before me and she is short of breath going up the stairs.Also, to make me feel even more down, Arsenal lost yesterday. This morning, I watched the highlights of the expected loss to the Team That Rhymes With City. I think it is unfair to blame just Takehiro Tomiyasu for the first goal as there was a header which had been lost first, but it was interesting to see that they would play Route One Football when needed and the highlights did not show Arsenal doing the same.
Anyway, we have two children again today. My daughter was at a sleepover on Tuesday night and did not get home till the afternoon and then was out again in the evening. My son made a great meal last night from Gousto but Leia has found it very stressful as she knows we are locked away and keeps whining at our door to let her in. This happens less when both children are about but is more of an issue if there is just one child here. I feel sorry that the half term week which we had hoped to spend time with them has now resulted in them looking after us. We will make it up to them later.
Hopefully I will be feeling a bit better tomorrow. That and I hope we beat Aston Villa on Saturday when we visit the home of our former manager, Unai Emery.
