@end3of6days9 Fortunately my tap water is also extracted and sold as mineral water, it’s ok. Much better in the winter. Waters do have different tastes from mineral contents. Not a fan of Evian, Smart is not pleasant.
One person today asked if I had a fear of covid. No, just a fear of being ill and unable to pay bills. Mentioned it’s at its lowest since 2020. “Only going to go up” they replied. 🤷♀️🤦🤐
@1goodtern Something took out a lot of people at work. Also considering that people are likely to be more adversely affected by other infections because of their covid infections. Lull or not, mask is staying on.
@cocomarvgrows I stick to black masks. After 3+ years with the same style people know who I am. They know me wherever I go as so few people wear the things. Still get negativity. A few older people wear procedurals, hopefully I make it a little easier for them in some way.

@cocomarvgrows Had a usually nice person go full ‘why? Are you wearing that’ and the old immunity debt thing. 3+ years with that particular person and …
@carltonkitheka1 Then why do some descend from the ceiling to my face. Why did a woodlouse spider (chunky) fall from a kitchen cabinet. There’s obviously a few wayward spiders.
