She's home

Covid finally hit our household when The Girl called from college and said she tested positively and her school was forcing her to come home early.

Ugh.

Fortunately she has all three vaccinations.

Unfortunately a month ago she had mono, which I take to mean her immune system was compromised.

It is odd having her home when we cannot see her. The Girl immediately went to her room. We've been bringing food up to her and leaving it at her door. Communication is through phone calls and texts (which ironically are more plentiful than in a normal week).

She was sent home on Friday with another test to take on Wednesday. As long as she has a negative test result, she can return to campus.

Hopefully the rest of us can avoid catching Covid from her. I think we have a fighting chance because we had not seen her for the three weeks prior to her negative test result, and have been extremely careful since. 

We'll see.
