Some Observations 3 weeks post covid

I had COVID just before the holidays. My symptoms were sore throat, runny nose, and extreme exhaustion. I slept for 3 days straight. Then I felt better and slept normally. It’s been a little over 3 weeks since my symptoms disappeared and I tested negative. I’m still tired. At the end of the day I … Read more

Technical Difficulties

Being Supported by Viewers

A few of my YouTube viewers have supported the channel through purchases via my Amazon wishlist and cash donations. It’s wild to me that my old videos made such an impact. And I appreciate it so very much. I’ve had a few people reach out and let me know that they can’t support in a … Read more
