milk and honey

My allergies have been acting up, but I feel you. I work very hard to keep sniffles to a minimum while out shopping.

i felt that exact way while walking outside today, my seasonal allergies have been acting up the last few days, I managed to delay sneezing until no one was around

The cough thing is likely a reasonable but mildly overdone worry.

I'm more scared that people don't cover up their face or avoid crowded areas.  Trout Lake was packed today esp. in the dog section.  I get it gets boring at home but do things that don't require you being close to others, and don't gather in numbers reminiscent of pre-Covid days, because that's what got the States and Europe.
