Day one of the new normal
This morning, I woke up really NOT wanting to do my day. But I was doing it anyway. Around the bad attitude, I had figured out how to manage the load - barely, but balanced precariously. Then I got the call - a positive test result.
I thought but I’ve been so careful! Why? How? I had a negative result yesterday!?
I’ve been saying for weeks that we need to contingency plan for this and we haven’t had time. Or made time. What to do when there are insufficient resources to be adequately prepared? This is where traditional leadership methods are woefully inadequate.
I haven’t got over feeling like a plague carrier. And overly responsible for both having caught it and possibly spread it.
It makes no sense to me that I can’t catch it if I am masked and stay six feet away in intervals of 15 minutes or less, but once I have it, I have to quarantine to make sure I don’t spread it. Wouldn’t I also not spread it masked and six feet away in intervals of 15 minutes or less? The illogic of it is bewildering to me. As is the ardent way in which the health care workers have explained it to me.
Anywho - to bed, I’ll most likely kill you the morning.
