So today is my #birthday.
I am still alone without #friends or #family, still living in a remote isolating unfriendly town, still without work. I didn't even lose the 10 lbs I tried to lose before today.
I would really appreciate any cheering up please

The good news: my skillet #lasagna came out ok again #food #cooking
The bad news: today is my 1 year anniversary of losing my senses of #smell and #taste to #LongCovid
It's only gotten worse over the past 3 months. So today I chopped 10 cloves of #garlic and absolutely could not smell anything
I ate #pineapple and it could have been cardboard. I've put on 30 lbs trying to find something I can taste. Nothing is satisfying without #flavor and #aroma
4 months ago I could make out the scent of #lavender from #peppermint. No more

"By introducing the #HB299, #Chamberlin continues a chain begun by his predecessor in District 24, Rep. Joe #Harding. Harding, who sponsored the state’s original #DontSayGay bill, #resigned from office in 2022 after being #indicted on charges related to Covid business relief #fraud and #MoneyLaundering. Harding ultimately accepted a #plea deal and was #sentenced to four months in #prison."
I hope Rep Chamberlin's career is as successful as Rep #Harding's was.
