They thought I got Corona virus!
Wednesday morning. Very early, 5am, I prepared to go out with my family. We will board a ferry to cross a Norwegian fjord and take a bus to our destination.
On the ferry, I visit the restroom carrying a book I’ve borrowed from the library.
It’s one of the time I used to catch up with reading. It wasn’t until we were more than 700meter away from the ferry when I remembered forgetting it! I’ll pay a lot if I don’t return the book, so I ran without a stop to the ferry. I ran up the staircase to the third deck, find the book and down the stairs again and rushed out before the ferry take me back to where we came from and risk losing the bus.
I was dying by the time I joined my husband and son in the bus stop. Despite the snow on the ground, I was sweaty and had to take off my thick jacket to cool down. My nose was runny from inhaling too much cold air and for the same reason I was coughing from chest pain and I was thirsty. I drank water a lot, cough a lot and blew my nose. Overall, I look like shit and because of this we had the whole shed for ourselves because everyone who was waiting for the bus stood at least a mile away from me.
I got corona virus! That’s what everyone thought when in fact I was suffering from exercised-induced asthma. But I’m not complaining, I got to cough and spit to my heart content. 😂
Chill guys. I know it’s horrible to get this virus and we have to be cautious, but please don’t forget to live life.
Have a Fun Friday!

Sorry. I didn’t think about the consequences when I chose the title. I probably should change it. I seemed to bother a lot bloggers and I’m feeling guilty haha 😀

U got me there😂 Very clever at shocking us,😎 I was at my short nap of the day when I came through this title and now wide awake 😳. 😂😂 LOL. But seriously, take care, you must improve your immune system to stay away from that cold it’s still bad to have a cold, I know how it feels 🙄 too bad to have a cold. ✨ have a good day Jessica ✨💐
Jessica E. Larsen
Sorry for shocking you! This is the 4th apology but I’m happy to be able to pull you wide awake 😂
And I think you misunderstood me dear Simon. I don’t have cold. I only got the problems because I ran without stop for more than a kilometer without stop while breathing cold air. It’s physical reaction that was over after 40min haha 😁
Have a great day to you too 😉
Simon
Oops! Yes I misunderstood 🙄 😜 how a 40 min stuff made into a shocking story at our blog 😄😉👌 Brilliant Idea✨

Ho, My god, your title for the post drew me crazy for a while. “Oh, God what!!! This sweet girl got the deadly virus. No it’s impossible.” But finally reading the end of the post my breath became normal. Felt a bit angry on you naughty Jenny. 😡 I was frightened really.😰 Anyway take care. Happy that you are ok.😌
Jessica E. Larsen
Sorry Olivia. I guess I deserve to be scolded 😭
I just feel like there’s too much panic out there from people that they actually forget to live and just everything to survive. Surviving is great but living is wonderful.
Have a great weekend! 😘
Tushara Olivia
You judged it right Jenny. People forgot to live out of panic. As you said surviving is great but living is wonderful. That’s awesome.🤩💞👍

You mad women! Don’t kill yourself with such an exercise and don’t kill us from panic 🤪
I’m glad you’re ok though 🤗 Enjoy your trip and have a wonderful and relaxing weekend! 🤗💕
Jessica E. Larsen
Sorry Ribby 🙇 The tittle just popped out of head. I couldn’t help running too much too fast in the cold though I was afraid of losing the book and paying the price. Haha 😁
I wish you a great weekend too ❤

Important is that you’re ok! 😄💕

I almost had a heart attack when I saw your title.
I thought you really did have the Coronavirus.
On the other hand, I always enjoy reading books about ducks myself.
Jessica E. Larsen
Sorry, 😂 I couldn’t help it. It’s the first thing that popped in my head while composing this post.
I also love ducks and swan and well all birds 😁 and this was a wonderful read.
Dracul Van Helsing
Yes, I like reading books about ducks and swans.
A lot of varieties of animals actually.
Jessica E. Larsen
Me too! The only animals I can’t stand are most insects (except for butterfly and few others) and selected reptiles like crocodile and snakes… I can’t get over their wiggling movements *shivers*
Accidental Blogger
Huh, I was shocked and worried
Jessica E. Larsen
I’m sure that’s what everyone else feels in the bus stop that’s why they move as far as possible.
Accidental Blogger
That really sucks. People are overreacting
Jessica E. Larsen
I can’t blame them though. Everyone is on edge about this thing especially because no one reported any permanent cure yet.
