I'm going to YELL! I'm going to SCREAM! I got my second *FREE*
Covid-19 VACCINE! (lol) They gave me a button: https://i.postimg.cc/tg8Jx81r/covid-vac.jpg FYI, so far I'm not feeling any ill effects from the 2nd vaccine. The nurse told me to help alleviate the sore arm, exercise the arm. I've been flapping it occasionally like I'm doing a one sided chicken dance (LOL) since I got home. So far my arm doesn't hurt. I'm experiencing no other negative symptoms, either. OB Food: I'm thinking breakfast for dinner. I have leftover already roasted/smashed small yellow (Baby Dutch) potatoes I can reheat in the skillet to crisp a bit more in lieu of hash browns. Rather than bacon, I'm thinking cooking a few from raw small Johnsonville link breakfast sausages. Add a couple of scrambled eggs, possibly with a bit of grated cheese, perhaps Asiago, and that's dinner. :) Jill |

Despite the severity of this third wave we are seeing some light at the end of the tunnel.

My right shoulder was sore so I asked for the shot in my right arm. I figured it would be better to have one arm that might be a little sorer than to have to sore arms. The day after the shot my arm was tender. Some of that went away but I my shoulder is worse now than it had been. > > OB Food:Â* I'm thinking breakfast for dinner.Â* I have leftover already > roasted/smashed small yellow (Baby Dutch) potatoes I can reheat in the > skillet to crisp a bit more in lieu of hash browns.Â* Rather than bacon, > I'm thinking cooking a few from raw small Johnsonville link breakfast > sausages.Â* Add a couple of scrambled eggs, possibly with a bit of grated > cheese, perhaps Asiago, and that's dinner. :) > We had supper for supper,... baked chicken legs, rice, steamed green beans and a salad.

After the fist shot, about 5 minutes in I got lightheaded for a couple seconds but it passed. After the second shot, being the Man that I am, I didn't wait more then a couple minutes before I burned off to the back of the store to look at TV's (Walmart). I got almost back there and to take a knee for a couple seconds, thought I was gonna ralph and/or pass out. But that only lasted a 4-5 seconds adn I was up again with no lingering effects. The arm didn't hurt any more than any other shot in the arm. Sore the next morning - just like with rabies vaccines a few weeks/months earlier, but that was short-lived too. -sw |

Consider all those people walking into stores and restaurants with their dogs and phony service dog certificates. You send away for them, regular $199.95 but always on sale for $149.95. The kit comes with a vest, an ID tag, a Service Dog patch and a certificate. You can bet that if they come out with some sort of certificate there will be forgeries. |

You can bet your bottom dollar that there will be people who will resent being asked to show it, just as there are people who refuse to wear masks. Then there is the possibility of forgeries. If it is just some some or certificate that is emailed to you there will be be people making forgeries for themselves and their friends. There was recently someone busted at a Niagara border crossing with a forged Covid19 negative test result. Look at all the people who take their dogs into stores and restaurants and claim their are service animals. There are plenty of sites online where you send them money and they send you the kit, complete with special vest, ID tag, Service Dog patch and a certificate. No training needed. Personally, I like the idea of people having to have been vaccinated to go into places. I do not want to be in a space with people who refused. We have been through a year of lock downs and restrictions. I have not been able to go to the gym for over a year. Our kayaking club had to suspend activities last year. I can't go and see my doctor in person. I want this to be over with. |

I experienced no side effects. Walgreens gave me a card for each shot. This is the Rehab Center: https://greenemeadows.com/ Not a bad facility, I received good care... just can't recommend the food, most was inedible. I didn't have much appetite anyway so only ate about half the items they served... the coffee was disgusting, weak and arrived cold. They served a lot of turkey patties, not something I would eat. I pretty much lived on French toast and cole slaw (not bad). The beverage with each meal was Kool Aid. Veggies were canned; green beans or niblets. I was able to ask for cottage cheese with a side of canned fruit (pineapple chunks and manderin oranges. We were weighed every day, I dropped ten pounds there. My main complaint was that it was very noisy, everyone had their TV on different stations and very loud... I kept my door closed. |

We were weighed every day, I dropped ten pounds there. I had pretty bad food when I was in the hospital last August, and I missed a lot of meals. The first day I arrived there around 4 pm was checked out in the ER and was admitted, but no bed available in cardiac ward so I stayed in the ER. Being admitted so late, I missed supper. Due to a procedure they were going to do I missed breakfast and lunch. They moved me up to cardiac ICU around 4 pm and when dinners came there was none for me. The nurse found me some sandwiches. Meals were typically a tiny portion of meat and a pile of vegetables. One day it was broccoli and cauliflower and another day it was a big pile of corn. Breakfast was a small scoop of dry industrial scrambled eggs and one piece of dry, cold toast. They would give me a cup of juice and a cup of tepid water with a teabag or instant coffee. The water was so far from hot that you could leave the bag in it for 5 minutes and it barely changed the colour of the water. I missed a few more meals because they were hoping to something that involved knocking me out. It got to the point that I didn't mind missing meals because they were so small and so horrible I was not missing much. Between the lack of food, the missed meals and being pumped full od diuretics, I dropped more than 20 pounds over the 6 days I was there. > My main complaint was that it was very noisy, everyone had their TV on > different stations and very loud... I kept my door closed. My room was pretty quiet. I had a nice big room to myself. It was strange. I had had a Covid test three days before I went to the hospital and the day before I went i got the results... negative. They still put me into isolation because I had had symptoms that led to me getting the test. Noise was more of a problem when I had been in ICU after bypass surgery. The nurses used to hang out in the hall in front of my room at shift change. The food was much better there but the place was dismal and in spite of being heavily medicated I hardly slept a wink in 11 days. |

A note from a busy doctor is possible, but something official would be better. |

I still have one of those yellow vaccination cards, with records of my smallpox, polio, typhoid, paratyphoid and typhus inoculations. There was a time when those cards were required for entry into the US. |

Hmm. Might be a good idea to do that tattoo in the kind of ink which only shows up under UV light. Particularly useful when clubbing. |

Then as the years go by and we require more shots they add more I's, V's, and X's and eventually L's to the left or right of the original "I" indicate how many times you've been immunized. Some I's will be turned into V's and X's so we don't fill up our foreheads. And they're all color coded to indicate the decade and to which strain(s) of which viruses they apply. -sw |

Dave, here in Quebec, some people rented their dogs out to neighbourhood locals to go for doobies and poopies after curfew.

The plastic barriers, rubber gloves, masks, &c will be tweaked, but you'll be distracted by new variants and fake news of 'Maybe' medicines and *lots* of anecdotal evidence for all sorts of things. |

Our Con govt had got rid of the in-house cooks and contracted out to CANA, the airline food makers. |
