Plague 104

 Contrary to popular opinion ive not wandered off into the Covid riddled hinterlands , still here folks !!Just been a tad busy . Mr Bah Humbug had his first jab and it made him rather sorry for himself . We were surprised when he got offered an appointment at one of the other satellite surgerys , so it was a trip out and stand freezing in the cold for him , the standing is what has caused him problems his wheels wont fit the path to the back door of the little surgery. To his amazements our actual doctor was doing the jabs in his hazmat suit . Its such a tiny surgery you had to sit in the car park for 15 minutes after the shot . So hes been in agony with his back and gained a stinking cough and cold for his effort , trouble is coughing isnt good with broken ribs and heart problems , hes scarily breathless and they do say the second jab is worse?  i was offered the jab and have declined for the present i cant look after him and be ill myself , ive been awaiting a reply from ask GP for well over a week as i needed to ask some questions about having it and the auto immune problems i already have, but with a long history of severe allergic reactions of the ow shit variety . I may give it a miss for a few months .

We had two days of Spring weather so the annual gardening mayhem has begun , now im tapping my foot to get outside , so much to get on with at least i dont have to tackle the conifers this year . only thinking of using half the veg garden this year its just to much work on my own without grandsons help .

  1. We had ours a couple of weeks ago now, fortunately we didn't have any after effects.

  2. I had my first one Wednesday - a little swelling & sore arm at injection site, but I always get that when I have my flu shot too. I was a little fatigued yesterday. I have also heard that folks feel lousy after the 2nd shot, which I get on the 31st.

  3. I didn't know that about the second shot. I am due my first one in a fortnight... Can't wait to get out into the veg garden. I have tons of seedlings on the windowsills not quite big enough for the great outdoors just yet but soon.... very soon.

  4. In dear! I spent all day in bed yesterday with a war going on in my body and a thumping headache, after the first injection Wednesday. Hope Mr BH is feeling a little better.

  5. Him upstairs had his a couple of weeks-when they phoned from the doctors to invite him to go-he said"can I come in now?"giggling excitedly-she said No he needed to make an appointment first.He surprisingly has not complained of any ill effects-(he has rheumatoid arthritis)x

  6. Oh crickey don't tell me second one is worse please. Thought the first was rubbish and felt quite ill. 2 weeks in and still a bit of a bruise. Know what you mean about the gardening - cutting back a bit here too.
