While I feel better than a few days ago, I feel I could sleep all day and all night. Also, I just want to be warm. Actually, I want to sweat. Just to be hot and sweaty. While I think I still can muster the strength for that, THAT isn’t what I mean.
I’ve noticed I crave salty foods. Maybe it is some sort of electrolyte thing. Hard to say. I did get some Gatorade and Pedialyte. I think I want some more.
Sometimes when I am in bed I have moments like I’m lucid dreaming. Actually, I had an episode a couple weeks ago where I dreamed about time travel. (That has happened before and I even wrote a story based on what I saw in the dream.) In this case, I my dream dealt with the fact that whenever we consider time travel, mind, body, and spirit must travel together. What if we could leave the body behind? That eliminates many obstacles to time travel.
My grandson also has covid. Poor little guy. He just wants to be held. I put him down yesterday and he slept in his bed for a while but awoke crying. I went and picked him up and laid him on my chest for a while. I could tell he was getting feverish. Everyone once in a while, he would say something or make a noise. I couldn’t see his eyes but I think they were open the whole time. He is such a sweet little boy.
He still makes more noises than actual words but his vocabulary is expanding and his understanding of the world grows each day. For a couple months now, I would say his name (Silas) and mine (grandpa). When doing this I would place my hand on his chest when saying his name and on my chest when saying mine. Occasionally, I would point to our noses or some other part. Also, I would use his hand to do the pointing. Recently, when saying his name, he puts his hand on his chest. I pray we recover soon.
