Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer??? (Jan. 10 update: Rudolph probably has COVID--her husband does 🙁)

If my nose ran any faster, it might get an Olympic medal.  I need a tissue every time I bend down.  I have a scratchy throat, a dry cough, and a slight fever of 99 degrees Fahrenheit (37.2222 Celsius).  The only good news is that the COVID test I took this afternoon was negative.  My best guess is that I have a mild flu.  (My husband, our son, and I have all received two COVID vaccinations, three COVID boosters, and flu shots.)  I'll be taking another COVID test tomorrow.  If I'm still negative, maybe my poor husband can stop sleeping in the living-room.  Speaking of which, I should probably try to sleep, even though I slept most of the afternoon.  G'night.
