We had our first possible encounter with covid this week. The oldest kid, who is in an “essential” worker category, and thus has continued to work outside the house through all this, reported to us on Sunday that after experiencing a number of covid symptoms (notably not including a fever), she sought and obtained a test. She was told the results would be back in 3-7 days, so we commenced to worrying immediamente! I am happy to tell you that the results came back quicker than expected, and she tested negative. *whew*

She’s a science nerd, so she was quick to not the high incident of false negatives, so I guess we’re still one edge for the next seven days or so, but I think we’re good.

I hope everyone out there is doing well, and may this be our only brush with this particular disaster.
