Super Spreader

Nothing to see here .... partly due to the heat keeping everyone inside, A/C running 24/7.

Another reason for the deserted walkways is that those I usually spot are on lockdown, testing for Covid.

After twice testing, the Baker and her husband are negative, Talker is negative, but I’ve heard nothing back on Lu and Upstairs Lady — the two most vulnerable as they are the closest to Dream Lover, and others who came in contact with him last Tuesday.

I’d like to say I’m surprised Management hasn’t put out a bulletin, alerting residents to the situation, but I’m not surprised at all.

I’m assuming that, with no alert notices, tomorrow’s Pizza Tuesday is still on, which means Activity Director Kesha is probably going to find herself pretty much alone in the room, not knowing why.

I don’t want her to take it personally, think she’s failing already, so I’ll mask up, head down just long enough to clue her in on what’s happening.

Management has planned an End of Summer Fiesta for this coming Friday — "Event will be held in the club house. All residents are invited come have some tacos".

This is the kind of event that will bring everyone and their uncle down to the Community Room. It’s going to be over crowded, a possible Super Spreader.

I think I'm okay to mask up, run in but keep my distance from the crowd by standing halfway in/halfway out at the door, take a few pics, run out.

Twin 2 is still in the thick of it with her 4th go-round with Covid, and scared me nearly to death when she didn't respond to my text this morning asking if she was better yet.

When I followed up with a telephone call and she didn't answer, I began thinking of requesting a welfare check.

It was then I realized I didn't have a key to her apartment ... how were the welfare check people going to get in?

Both girls have keys to my place — for obvious reasons, but it never occurred to us that I might be the one to need keys to their place.

Fortunately, Twin 2 finally did respond, said her fever has not yet broken, but not feeling as bad as the first two days.

Once she gets through this, I want a key to her apartment and Twin 1's place.
