I was trying to think of a debacle. Oh. Getting my fourth pneumonia, March 21, 2021, Covid-19. This is the first pneumonia that put me on oxygen. The fast heart rate, dropping ten pounds, and feeling anxious were familiar from the other three. This photograph was from December 2021, visiting Maryland. We did a bike ride. I was pretty happy that I was able to do it, though the last mile had a sloping uphill that made me think I was not very strong. Oxygen helped.
And Covid-19 is a debacle that we are still trying to understand and absorb and avoid and heal and recover from. I am reading an article that entirely denies viruses existing. I guess it’s like porn on the internet: they say if there is a story, there is a porn version. Every possible idea of what has happened over the last three years is out there, though this article doesn’t make any sense at all.
I don’t remember who took the photograph of me. It may be a steathie. I needed oxygen at night and whenever I was being active, but not at rest. Ok, at rest talking.
Things and people were lost and found and lost during Covid-19. I spent a lot of time on our beaches. I am so grateful for the beaches.
For the Ragtag Daily Prompt: debacle.

Definitely a debacle, Katherine.
Can’t go over it, can’t go under it, Uh-oh, we’ll have to go through it!
“I am reading an article that entirely denies viruses existing. I guess it’s like porn on the internet: they say if there is a story, there is a porn version.” As I struggle trying to regain my brain, just thinking of Covid deniers makes me furious. And here we are…
Of course virus’ don’t exist! and Bishop Berkeley was correct about the age of the earth. Noah shepherded those tyrannosaurs onto the ark ( it’s sacred mystery how he kept them from eating those unicorns), and the world is flat.
We are living in the world of delusional thinking. Has the DSM caught up with this yet?
Oh, gosh, we used to trade ICD-10 insults. One could use the DSM too.
medicine is full of useful material for insults. Anthropology was too. A true master of a craft should know how to trade barbs based in jargon.
Heh. Bravo!
People will just believe what they want. I still see bloggers insisting that the Covid vax is a scam and/or there was no pandemic at all, despite the FACT that people are still catching it to this day. It doesn’t matter what the data show; they believe what they believe, same as folks who insist they’ve had encounters with aliens or that Elvis is alive…
