I woke up with a mild headache. I was also feeling a little feverish, so I turned off my air conditioning and took my temperature, which was 35.5'C. Yay! No fever.
Today is the second day of a nasty covid illness, coughing horribly still and the tiredness beats me mostly at night. I'm grateful though for I am able to walk around and, more importantly, make my way to the kitchen. 🙃
And off to the kitchen to make myself something for breakfast.
I air-fried a slice of whole-grain bread with butter, fried two sunny-side-up eggs, and pork luncheon meat. I chose a sugar-free alkaline coffee instead of black brewed coffee today since I wanted to dose off effortlessly throughout the day if needed.
I wasn't hungry at all honestly, because I'm used to eating OMAD
( One meal a day ). Usually, I'd have a black brewed coffee in the morning, lots of water during the day, and a meal about 5.30 to 6 in the evening. So yeah, for the time being, I must eat three times a day because my meds must be taken with food. 😨
While I was having my breakfast I received a message from the MOH (Ministry of Health ). It was to remind me that I was under Home Isolation and that I needed to keep them updated by checking in on a daily basis. It's basically just answering questions on the bru health app on your phone every day and telling them about your symptoms. Then I got a call asking if I needed food assistance, to which I responded yes, and the person asking said it would be delivered as soon as possible. They even asked if I needed an oximeter but I said No, which I regretted right after, as I should have said yes. LOL
Apart from checking social media, I spent my day in between sleep binge-watching Netflix's The Alchemy of Souls. It's a fantasy Kdrama with only two episodes so far. I can't wait for next week's episodes. Hehe!
Then came lunchtime, I managed to cook Pinakbet, which took me two hours and a half to be done as I was really slow at prepping all the veggies. Hahaha!
Ah, happy that my taste and smell are intact and my appetite is still the same as before. 😍🙏
Another phone call while I was eating! And yeah it was from someone saying the food aid's already outside my place. In it were a pack of rice, unsure how many kilograms it was, canned goods, a pack of sugar, two packs of noodles, cooking oil, two boxes of tea, a bottle of fruit punch flavoured syrup, and a pack of biscuits. How cool, yeah!?
So my day went on, and I continued to watch Netflix until another phone call came through. He was speaking Malay to me, and I understood what he was saying, which was to go down and get a pack of Art Kit and paracetamol.
Bless. Lovin' where I live and I consider myself quite fortunate to reside in Brunei. Do you agree?
Goodnight Hivers, tomorrow is another day. 🙏
😊😍
