rushthatspeaksI moved successfully and within the bounds of the money people so kindly gave me to help with it-- and I really can't thank you all enough. The stuff is in storage units, the apartment has been turned back over to the landlord, and I am on nineweaving's couch.
Somewhere during having to be around the movers (who were great, very professional, got the stuff into two small units when I'd gotten three just in case), the junk pickup guys (also great, bio-diesel truck), the cleaners (a person I've worked with for ages who is very good at what she does), the property company's office (because they insist on receiving keys in person), and the extremely long Lyft rides to and from the property company's office because it is in Southie and I am in Cambridge, I got what I am eighty percent certain is covid. (If not, it's the literal flu.)
Still testing negative on rapids, but at this point that doesn't mean much. Smell and taste okay, oxygen saturation fine, respiratory stuff generally aggravating, fever high, body aches and fatigue truly ridiculously bad. In process of arranging PCR via my primary care doctor in hopes of getting Paxlovid, but the reason that's in process is that that office is used to me having access to a car and so booked me for a test out in Woburn. I'm not up to driving myself (and I'd have to rent a Zipcar), and I am not going to be in a car for that long with somebody else when I have symptoms, even masked. Hopefully they can find me a lab that's more accessible.
Luckily, it is easy for me to isolate where I currently am, andnineweaving has been extremely helpful with things like leaving food at the door. And at least this didn't happen before or during the move; I started having symptoms on Saturday.
So that's where things are for the moment.
