I certainly don’t think COVID is the cause of everything. I work very closely and I worked with a high population of acutely Ill hospitalized COVID patients. And the long COVID patients. Long covid is real. And it’s mostly prevalent in the first round /strain. The ones who came back from the brink of death or had very extended symptoms. Mostly in the form of chronic lung disease, heart strain, and blood clots. And we did have some post covid psychosis which was those who were on the brink of death and came back. Again, I didn’t have covid, which is quite amazing considering. I do have a super immune system. I haven’t had so much as a sniffle since beginning and before COVID. It’s weird .
Anyways, yeah, Core. It’s definitely affected my bite. Which wasn’t hot in the first place. I don’t have banged up teeth, but I don’t have great teeth, but I can tell you, losing that front tooth would knock me down on the attractiveness scale to zero! Ha! If I had the money, I would do lots of cosmetic dental work. I am going to consider those implants and put it on a care credit. I’m already broke, might as well get broker.
My accountant tried something and my federal refund was huge, but he wasn’t sure it would work. It didn’t. I literally got 655 from federal. He basically told me those who are divorced get screwed with the child tax credit . I got my hopes way up. It was going to solve a lot of problems. Oh well. I’ll just work more and more.
I took D for her babysitting interview. My god, what a relief. Probably the nicest family ever. Living in a million dollar home with the cutest. dog and 7 year old. Mom is super caring and loving and protective but ready to start going out again. Then dad walks in. Oh My God. If you could build me a perfect man, he’s it. Looks, personality, everything. They are really cool people. My D was like “ you guys should hang out” I would ,lol. D did great and it looks like she is hired. Test run soon, they will go out locally one night . They feel good I live close by and I’m a nurse godforbid. D handles herself so well around them. I’m proud. This was a very nice change from what happened Sunday and she came out of that house feeling so comfortable and relieved .
I find myself dealing with alot of envy lately. I know everyone says “you don’t know what goes on behind closed doors” but not everyone’s lives are messed up behind closed doors. There are actually great lives going on behind closed doors. Nice families, attentive and loving husband and wives. People who love eachother, big families that get together and truly love eachother and aren’t drenched in drama. It exists. It’s real. And I envy it. I was in that house and I just wanted to be the wife so bad. I know it’s the theirs of joy, but I can’t help but feel it. My coworker is 60 something with a huge huge family. She is 1 of 7 and the the youngest and the only girl. She has 3 kids. She talks about her family with such love and joy all the time. I envy their big huge get togethers. She is the most amazing grandmother and nothing brings her more joy than watching her grandkids while her daughter and husband travel or do something fun. She is close with everyone of her brothers wives. It’s beautiful. It’s absolutely beautiful.
Just keeping it real over here. It’s a rainy Thursday here. The upside is I’m getting a fancy dinner for free tonight !
