Covid Vaccine

-

 It is great that science was able to produce a vaccine quickly. The downside, I am concerned that there was not enough known about the vaccine. As many of you have read, a small number of folks have had a negative reaction.

Roy Christian in Lincoln, NE has a stroke after receiving the Pfizer vaccine. Here is the news article

Lincoln city councilor has ‘small stroke’ after vaccine, recovering at hospital (1011now.com)

As many of us have heard on the news a handful of women have had blood clots. I know it is less than 10, but if you or one of your loved ones are one of the ten it is a big deal. 

I had a reaction to the J & J vaccine. My reaction did not show up till five days after I received the vaccine. The first two days I was very tired. I started to feel better, and then I was very ill. After a six hour stay in the ER, I was released. I was told that I had a complication to the vaccine and it had to be logged with the CDC as a complication. I was fortunate that I did not have a blood clot.

Why did I get the J & J vaccine? I had been advised not to get Moderna because I have lots of allergies to medicine. I had been advise by my medical professional to get Pfizer or J & J. I had an opportunity to get J &J hours before the news broke about the blood clots. If I had known about the blood clots, I would have passed on the vaccine.

It has been two weeks since I got the vaccine and I am finally feeling like myself.

My dog is my new boss

Today, I walked out and quit my job. Huh? Am I serious? Yep, absolutely. Normally, I would tell someone don't ever do this, but sometimes a person has to do what is best for them.  Here is what happened: 7:50 a.m. Arrived at work. 7:50 a.m. to 7:55 a.m. Placed my lunch in the breakroom fridge, filled up my water bottle, and logged into my computer. Once I logged into my computer and saw the email, I decided to make today my last day. Why? Was it really that bad? My ex boss (I love how that sounds.) was demanding a meeting with me to go over my soft skills and discuss my future goals with the company.  This meeting was unnecessary, I had turned in my notice and my last day was to be on the 29th of May.  I couldn't get out of the meeting. It was mandatory.  Would the meeting really have been that bad?  Well, if it had been like past meetings, yes.  Historically, she doesn't have a positive thing to say, she puts me down, do...

If you have a Dyson Animal 3 listen up.

The recline feature suddenly stops working. About a year ago, I decided to splurge on a good vacuum because I was tired of replacing the vacuum every few years. Well, I vacuumed, shut it off and tried to use it the next day and wouldn’t recline. After trying some of the tips online, I gave up and called Dyson. After an hour wait, the guy told me that this model had a defect. So, if I send it back, they will send me a replacement. So, now I am waiting for a replacement. I am also wondering why they don’t recall it.

Why don't I share my political views on social media?

-
 I don't share my political views because it usually leads to disagreement amongst people and frankly, I don't feel like arguing with anyone. Also, I have to be careful about my conduct on a social media platform because of my job. I must protect my source of income and my future. I will always speak out against violence against women and violence prevention because those are my areas of research.
