Nancy tested positive for Covid about a week ago. Thanks be to God and vaccines, our symptoms have been almost negligible: a cough here and there, needing another nap, etc.
Quarantine proved to be the biggest challenge: after a long enough time at home, one feels a creeping sense of uselessness. The suspicion that one is just “mooching” becomes a regular, though unreasonable, nuisance. The key for us in such doldrums is to remember that we are demonstrating love for our neighbors by reducing their risk and humility by obeying the doctor’s advice. Or as a Valaam monk once said, “don’t just do something, stand there!!”
Note: Everyone has tested negative and all are doing well.
