8/5/20 Personal Journal

7/30/20 Yesterday we got the covid19 test in our building, everyone did. Two people tested positive for it this past week :) so everyone got the test. The only way we'll know what the results were is that everyone who test positive will be moving to the gym or hospital somewhere. I'm going to try to get something posted every week now so people will know how I'm doing. I think others should be [?] considerate. When I got the test yesterday I think the nurse hit my eyeball with the swab :)

7/31/2020 The temperature got down to 60 last night. That feels real cold after all the high 90's and 100's we're having. I was too lazy to get up and get a blanket out so I layed under a sheet and shivered :) nothing happened yesterday to write about - no there was something my next door neighbor got a CTQ sign put on his door they ran out of quarantine signs they went to act like nothings happening :) I did paint in the morning finishing the bare scene. I think I might put some heavier snow on it.

8/2/20 Sunday I think I've already mentioned that there are five positive out of this block in the gym. Last night they moved 5 people out of the block. Haven't heard where to but we are on quarantine. Don't know how many might be positive in the other building - no one is getting out of the block to run around - not even their [Illegible].
8/2/2020 I feel good today after feeling bad all week with stomach + gas pain - bone were even beginning to ache I had even less energy than usual. I made it eye on time today (4A.M.). I still like to move around early before [?] where no one else is here to bug me. It seems to be staying dark now until after six.

8/3/2020 I had a hard time getting up this morning, cold in here, I've been using a blanket the last couple of nights the temperature is falling below 60 then going back up to around a hundred in the afternoons. The sun hits my cell in the morning before it gets hot - by noon my cell wall is in the shade the rest of the day with the vent working and sun fans going it stays fairly cool in here :) except when it don't :) :) six o'clock starting to light up outside. I love the morning sky it makes think of fresh + clean like after a summer rain on the smile on my lovers face. It looks like another slow day coming up. I have to take this long sleeve shirt off now I'm not cold anymore.

8/4/2020 Tuesday It chilly again this morning not cold but the early morning chill one feels at daybreak just as the sky is lighting up. The little window in the back of my cell faces east toward the foothill there's a white light shining off their top, the sun will be popping up any moment now and in just minutes we will be feeling its warmth., nothing random about that. We were told as of last night there are 11 positives quarantined in the gym and one person has been moved to the hospital all out of this building (11). 13 buildings is shut down on quarantined. They're waiting for test results over there. We should be getting another test room. Because we're on this lockdown I'm not able to go out to the doctor for my throat treatment or for this skin cancer still can't swallow anything without choking.

8/5/2020 Wed I got the results of my latest Covid 19 test last night it was negative. There were 11 more people in the building who tested positive so they were off to the gym or hospital that's 22 gym and a couple of hospitals out of this building some of those were my friends whom I worked and talked with almost everyday. They have them take their property with them just in case thats their last stop. I would like to have a place to send my stuff hime to, not everything, just my photos. my art work just the art work not the paints, brushes, pencils, and stuff and all my poetry and writing, love note, some old letters. My first and last friend Mel :) <3 I know she still loves me after all these years. I doing ok still dancing, I need someone to leave me message let me know the [?] eye + running. being maintained right now that I'm being posted that someone is reading it.
