    Some Good News

    Late last week the indian tribes here announced they were opening all of their health clinics to anyone for covid vaccinations. Just today the state followed suit and starting Monday any Oklahoma resident is now eligible to get a vaccination appointment.

    The race is on against these variants!

    The way things are going here our summer could be pretty normal. It just depends on whether this variant stuff is going to bite us or not.

    Yep, down here they’re now registering anyone 18 or older, just waiting for the order to open up within the next few days.

    Some Good News

    Indiana just opened up the vaccinations to anyone over 16 and will be canceling the mask mandate and joining the Neanderthals.

    We live in a small county and when the available "doses" have been announced - it's been like they were giving away money. First wife and I haven't been very social anyway.. so, we haven't been in any great hurry. .. *and* we have kind of debated whether whether to partake at all.. I have a niece on some health board who has called us every time it's come available wanting to know if we want an appointment.. Finally wife said - okay.. I haven't had 5 sick days in my life and if I die from this %^$#*@( vaccine - I'm gonna be pissed..

    I haven’t heard of anyone dying yet from it but then again I don’t think they’ve turned on the chip yet.

    But somebody told me if you stick a fork in the toaster it’ll jailbreak the chip and you can get free HBO.

    Asking for a friend ... but if you get the shots is it still ok to avoid most people?

    Haha Julie and I were talking about that very thing this morning. How do we get out of our Covid reclusive rut? We’ve actually kind of gotten into a happy place with our hermitage.

    Julie gets her first shot tomorrow. WE’ll see how that opens things up. I’m going down to surprise my Mom on her 84th birthday Monday. I haven’t seen her in a year.

    Apparently my vaccinations worked. I donated blood last week and my Covid test from the Red Cross came back “reactive” which shows a response to the vaccine and not from an actual infection.

    I thought if something was reactive that meant it was radioactive.

    I’m not glowing yet. Maybe the chip hasn’t been active long enough.

    I’ll let you know in a couple weeks then. We’re heading down to Florida for a week. Just the Mrs. and I for our 25th anniversary. I’m sure I’ll go through somewhere that has 5G active.
