spacefemokay this sucks. it sucks so much I waited a full 24 hours to post about it, so I could mentally calm myself and write.
I am booked to go on a work trip to Australia on Sunday. I have campaigned for this for years, there's a conference, I have customers that love our airplanes, I am so excited I can barely stand it.
My husband went on a trip to another conference last weekend.
He got home late monday night. I was asleep. He crawled in bed next to me. In the morning he was really sniffy, so he took a covid test that was immediately positive.
wtf dude.
so this once-in-a-lifetime trip is a huge question mark now.
we are masking in the house, I am upstairs and he is sleeping in the basement and downstairs. No bathroom sharing, no room sharing, no talking.
I have a PCR test scheduled Friday and home tests to take before I go, but can I dodge this? When it's apparently very contagious, and I haven't had a booster since before I had covid in January?
and if everybody's getting it again now, am I also just going to get it AGAIN?
ahhhhh!
I realize people have suffered real losses due to covid, I am not meaning to wave that away. but can I mourn this trip?
I am really upset.
