Has anyone seen the new Spider-Man movie? Is it appropriate for our 7 year olds? We're seeing it tomorrow, but I will say that we have showed both our kids the majority of the Marvel movies without issue.

My house is out of control, all I have done since the 23rd is laundry and dishes and I haven’t made a dent. Today I went on Dh’s side of the closet and found my expensive winter gloves I have been looking for since last winter as well as my dress shoes and all his “underwear” he says he doesn’t have😤his clothes are piled high on a rocking chair behind all his hanging clothes. He is an adult and only has to put away his clothes how hard is this?

So I'm sick. Woke up Tuesday morning with what feels like a bad head cold, I have some stomach issues and a cough. Sleeping a lot. I feel terrible as this week was supposed to be a week of fun for DD and I. I've canceled most of our plans but she was really hoping we can still go to my brother's New Years day and spend the night to be with her cousins. Well, I can't find a rapid test anywhere and can't schedule a pcr test before Jan 5th! So my conscious says if I don't know if it's covid I should cancel this weekend. I also can't deal with the guilt of my crying daughter while feeling like ass. This sucks

Covid finally caught us. Thankfully DH has his booster and the girls just got their second shot 2 weeks ago so they aren't showing symptoms. I've been sick and tested positive yesterday and so are other family members. Although I'm sad we have to cancel NYE plans, it will be nice to just sit at home and eat and watch football.

I got some from Walmart. com (but it actually sent from distributor) and both those got to our house with 2-3 days. We were searching everywhere last week. Good luck with the hard decisions. I hope you feel better soon.

I’m so sorry - it’s everywhere it feels like. The vaccines didn’t prevent it from getting us either and honestly the symptoms between the vaccinate and unvaccinated (Ds3) didn’t seem so different. I’m totally pro-vaccine and glad we got it. This has just been our experience with whatever variant we have.

I just came to complain and update. Update - still waiting on my pcr from yesterday. I am feeling so much better today. If I am negative, we will pcr test today (only Ds2 and 3 were pcr positive on Monday) and maybe (small maybe) see some family. My complaint - we had huge storms last night. I stayed up most the night (probably the sudaphed too) the house was shaking with thunder. I don’t know that I’ve ever heard it that loud and I’ve been through hurricanes. Thankfully we have the house copper grounded and removed any trees that were too close to the house. No damage here. Just….no power … and no internet…. and it’s nasty out so we can’t play outside… and we are still quarantining until more test results. Ds3 doesn’t understand this and is not being nice to me about it. Ugh I used my phone to download a few shows so I have some peace. And no coffee ![:(](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/sad.png)

I'm sorry for all of the sickness going around. My complaints are trivial in comparison. DS is driving me crazy. He won't leave me alone for five minutes. We've already been to the science center and a gingerbread house making workshop and have plans to see Spiderman and see a light show this weekend. Plus he has a million new toys to play with. I can't even work out in peace.

I'm glad you're feeling better activebaby. I didn't realize you were getting bad weather. This weather is so crazy. I hope your power comes back on soon. The storms are suppposed to stay just north of us today.

Not going to help today, but you can order 5 boxes (2 tests each) at a time from here . I got them in less than a week each time. Cheaper than binax now as well. ihealthlabs.com/

Then my dad just called he found some in a CVS near him and is driving them the hour up to me❤. Sometimes it's good to still be a daddy's girl. So I should at least have a clear answer soon. It's just so much all the time with this covid crap and it can really get to you.

After 4 negative tests the 2 today were positive (1 antigen today and yesterday’s pcr). I got a pcr on 12/23 and one on 12/29. I was just too early on the 12/23 one. So we cancelled our family visit and we are going to isolate at the beach instead. I don’t really want to, but I agreed.

There's preliminary reports that especially in vaccinated people omicron may not really show up in a nasal swab - that throat swabs or saliva tests may be more accurate (opposite from delta). Some people have swabbed their throat instead of nose with the the regular rapid tests and gotten a positive (when they were pretty sure they had it) but of course there's no official directions on that. And with tests so hard to get it's hard to justify maybe wasting one trying that. Oh and I thinkntheres some variation among brands of rapidctests?at how?well they pick up omicron? activebaby have you heard any more specifics about doing throat swab instead of nasal? Anyway sorry you (both, and lecky too) have to cancel plans; I hope you will all recover quickly and completely! And maybe get your kids to buy in to playing nurse for mommy or at least just being happy with extra screen time!

DD1 was negative on a rapid. I both swabbed her throat and her nose. We'll test her again before school on Monday, if her symptoms persist.

I’m sorry everyone is sick.
Dd and I got food poisoning I think from bad veggies. She is still unwell and now has 102 fever and won’t eat Bc her gums hurt. We haven’t left the house since Dec 23rd and I am trying to decide whether to send them back to school.
She has fever, headache, nausea, chills and extremely sore gums. Has anyone that has had the flu recently remember having really sore gums? She doesn’t want to eat. Rapid covid is negative.

Half the moms and families in my D15 group have covid right now. I swear this new strain must spread through the internet.
Dd1 complained of a headache today. She spent most of the day either laying on a couch or in my bed here at my parents. Then she threw up right after I got home from picking up dinner for everyone. I just work her up, and her temp has been steady at 99.4 since we first took it this afternoon, but I gave her another Motrin just to be on the safe side. She did eat a little bit of an applesauce pouch and a fortune cookie for dinner, and had a bit of color back in her face. We were supposed to all get our hair cut this afternoon, but the lady text me this morning to cancel since she has had a stomach bug this week and wasn't feeling well. We rescheduled for tomorrow afternoon, but now I may have to cancel if Dd1 still isn't feeling well. This was pretty much our only chance do do it before our vacation next month, and the next chance we will have is spring break in mid April.

Headache on Saturday morning then fever Saturday night/Sunday mor king and headache again Sunday afternoon and positive test that evening at home.

I'm sorry so many are sick. Sending healthy thoughts to you all. So far we have avoided any sickness and were able to see some family we haven't seen in 2 years. Now we will lay low for a while just in case.
Our school district just posted a "pre-screening at home" info graphic that says kids can come to school if they are vomiting, so that's where our community is at. We started the year thinking maybe we could send the kids at semester but I guess we will just keep them home all year.
