Granny's gone and done it again

Just a lot built up inside I guess. Some days I have to let it out.

Then let it out, so that you can feel better. Or go outside barefoot, and let it all sink into the ground.

Ahh, but there is a reason you are feeling grouchy.

maybe ma nature.

 

[Verna Y]

Just tell her you dont feel like talking about it right now. You will think on it and be better prepared to talk when you feel better.
You dont want her to get married. Thats the problem and she probably thinks involving you will help.

ahhh, just like I thought, there was a reason.

 

[Granny Hatchet]

[HuffleClaw]

Is everyone here going to take the shot for covid ?

That's an awful lot like going to the dr, and you know how often I do that.

Two people at hubs' work tested positive. He wasn't exposed, but still has to get 2 negative tests before he can go in to the office. He'd rather stay home anyway.

Some friends of ours all had it and are recovering. Mom, dad, brother, sister. Ugh. They were sick, but no one needed the hospital or anything.

I guess I’ve never received help with anything I wanted to do. Even with my mom, my sister’s needs always felt bigger. My sis once wanted a $1500 pup and got it. But when I first got chickens years ago the deal was that I had to come up with feed money. For the longest time they lived in an old dog pen until I could afford something better. I’m always supposed to help everyone else but no one bothers to help me. But it’s okay. Normally I’m good at keeping it inside.

It isn't good to keep it inside. You can't change your parents, but you can change how much bull you have to put up with. It is okay to say NO. And stick to it. You do not have to explain. It is your right.

Nope. Eat a good, solid breakfast, a medium lunch and a light snack for supper. Nothing before bed! Try to go 12 hours between your last meal at evening and breakfast. It takes a few days to get used to it, but you'll be amazed at your weight. In my opinion that's the safest and most natural way to "go keto." Truly "fast" between dinner and breakfast."

Keto and fasting are two entirely different strategies. A lot of people do both but keto means getting into nutritional ketosis which can be done by lower your carbs. Of course fasting can do the same thing but you do not have to fast to do keto.

Am I gonna take the shot? Depends. DH and I decided that we wouldn't take the vaccine until they had a chance to prove it on a big group first. Say the first million or so recipients? Then I don't even know if I will be able to take it. When I took the Prevnar pneumonia shot last year I got sicker than a dog. The day of the shot I woke up in the middle of the night to visit the loo and almost didn't make it there simply because I was so dizzy I almost crashed into a big antique china cabinet we have. The next morning I was still dizzy and just plain sick. Spent three days on the sofa and my arm where I got the vaccine swelled double. Flu shot, no problem. When I told the PA about my reaction to the Prevnar last year she told me DO NOT take another one.

Not sure if that qualifies as a severe reaction to vaccines or not but I'm not doing anything till I find out for sure.

As for the party, @HuffleClaw, ummmmm in April? And it isn't even January yet? Turn your phone off dear and do not feel guilty, better yet, screen your calls and when DD's name pops up (or assign a special ring tone for her) just let it ring and let voice mail pick it up.

Life is too short.
