As some of you know, two weeks ago I tested positive for COVID. That's the LFT photo above, with that grim dark line giving no doubt that I was positive. Symptoms always vary from person to person of course. First I had a really sore throat and lost my voice (in addition to feeling unwell), then after a few days my voice returned but I lost my senses of smell and taste and felt totally exhausted.
Now, the positive line has virtually vanished at last but I'm still without those two senses, have a cough, and feel woozy and get tired easily. I'll recover eventually no doubt, and I've fared better than many, but just wanted to say that Covid can definitely get a grip on the system. Yes, it is mild for some, but it shouldn't be dismissed as harmless for everyone.
Anyway, my apologies for not posting much about current work recently. I haven't actually done any drawing or scripting for two weeks as I didn't feel well enough to concentrate on it properly or achieve a standard that was satisfactory. It still feels like my antibodies are battling the Covid virus like a scene from Georgie's Germs in Wham! comic. (See my version of that below. The first drawing I've done in a fortnight.) That also means I haven't earned anything for a fortnight either of course. (No sick pay for the self employed.) I feel a little bit brighter today but it comes and goes so I'll focus on what I can this week and hopefully get back in the game!
Best wishes and good thoughts to others out there fighting this annoying virus.
