    George,

    What's up?

    Have you untagged FUNNY in your reads these days?

    Not that I know of...I must have a feed problem somewhere.

    The only reason I'm up at this hour, was that severe storms
    moved through a bit ago, and I just brought the system back up.

    I will be going back to bed after I'm done, and I don't plan
    to go out again until later in the week...unless I see something
    important in the P.O. Box via the USPS app. With storms forecast
    on Wednesday, and rain on Thursday, I likely will stay home both
    of those days.

    I see you've posted in there now. . . :)
    Feed hiccough?

    We had some huge winds(60MPH) & rain(6 inches in 36 hours) but I slept through most; my family wasn't so lucky. . . :(

    Now it's done & we're backl to the usual south coast/lower valley drear with bits of sun here & there to give us hope & a pittance of Vitamin D.

    I'm eating a daily immunity booster regimen of vitamins & minerals these days.

    Slow Release VitaminC
    Multivitamin
    Zinc
    Magnesium/Calcium/D3
    the occasional quart or two of homemade spicy chicken soup

    Cabn't be too prepared for infection this time of year, during a pandemic.

    About 10 years after I had the original ones in, I was going to need them re-lined. But, the dentist I was going to wanted well over $1000 to do it.

    Yikes! A re-line costs me about $100 or so.
    I think my dentures ran around $2,000. I got the porcelain ones and look perfectly nature.
    I had been working a ton of overtime (12 hour days, seven days a week for three months) and paid cash for them.
    I believe in putting my money where my mouth is. :)

    They fit so perfectly, that I haven't had to use one bit
    of PoliGrip, Fixodent, etc. on them.

    I don't use any either, no need.

    Joe,

    These are the best dentures I've had, and rarely have to have work done on them.

    I believe in putting my money where my mouth is. :)

    There was a product, either a mouthwash or toothpaste, that had that as
    their slogan...but the product name escapes me.

    I don't use any either, no need.

    And, with the prices of everything going up, wherever you can save
    money, helps all the more.

    Lately, we've gotten "liquid sunshine". :P

    If it weren't for liquid sun, we'd get no sun at all, it seems! We don't tan in the summer, we rust!

    I had a telemedicine conference this morning, and they recommended because of hypertension and a high BMI, that I get the booster. But, with 2 clinic visits in mid-November...having to need some prescription refills soon (I may have to wait until Friday to do it, because of storms)...and having to be isolated at home for 2 weeks after the shot...I'm having to work the schedule, as it were.

    Check your vaccine card from the first,m & google the exact variant name & number you got; mine(Pfizer) says, in the official monograph: "Do not issue booster--dangerous" (this was after I'd already had second shot, though *sigh*)

    I've survived, plus I need my passport QR code lookup to say "fully vaccinated" for some venues, not "partly vaccinated"(single dose)

    Now they're talking about another booster to come out soon; I'll be making the vax nurses explain, in full detail, why they are contravening the official Health Canada-issued monograph, & trying to endanger my health.

    Apparently the COVID vaccine causes constipation
    When I got mine the other day they told me I had to wait 4 weeks to get number 2.

    I want to tell a vaccine joke
    But some won't get it

    Watching the movie ' Grease ' to take my mind off some vaccine side effects, however..
    I got chills..they're multiplying.

    My vaccine dad joke failed
    But it was worth a shot

    Yesterday I received my second round of the Russian covid-19 vaccine...
    It appears completely safe, with &#1080;o side effects whatsoeve&#1103;, and I feelsh&#954;&#953;
    &#967;o&#961;osh&#959;&#769; &#1103; &#1095;&#1091;&#1074;&#1089;&#1090;&#1074;&#1091;&#1102; &#1089;&#1077;&#1073;&#1103; &#1085;&#1077;&#1084;&#1085;&#1086;&#1075;&#1086; &#1089;&#1090;&#1088;&#1072;&#1085;&#1085;&#1086; &#1080; &#1103; &#1076;&#1091;&#1084;&#1072;&#1102;, &#1095;&#1090;&#1086; &#1074;&#1099;&#1090;&#1072;&#1097;&#1080;&#1083; &#1086;&#1089;&#1083;&#1080;&#1085;&#1099;&#1077; &#1091;&#1096;&#1080;.
    (I feel a little weird and I think I pulled out donkey ears.)

    If you and your buddies should all get COVID vaccines and the doses need to be kept in freezers...
    then you're cracking open a cold Bud-Pfizer!

    I asked the nurse giving me my covid vaccine if she moonlights as IT
    because she seems really good at installing antivirus!

    I finally got the Covid vaccine yesterday and as I was driving I noticed my vision was blurry. I called the vaccination center and asked if I should go to the doctor or hospital. They said no.
    But they encouraged me to immediately return to the vaccination center to pick up my glasses.

    My employer now gives two weeks off to recover from the vaccine.
    They call it Modernaty leave.

    George,

    Got a new vet who's not as bad/greedy as the last one, but I still need to start tightening the chain on him, though. :(

    Maybe you should do to him like the old lady did to her dentist. <G>

    eww, nah.

    name & number you got; mine(Pfizer) says, in the official monograph:
    "Do not issue booster--dangerous" (this was after I'd already had
    second shot, though *sigh*)

    Well, it had been 6 months since I had the second one...and except for
    a sore left shoulder (the same thing after I had the second shot), I was
    fine. With the colder weather, the arthritis hurt more...and I had a bad
    IBS attack the night before...so, I was sleep deprived. I crashed out much
    of yesterday afternoon.

    I've survived, plus I need my passport QR code lookup to say "fully vaccinated" for some venues, not "partly vaccinated"(single dose)

    I bought 3 lanyard deals with clear pouches from Amazon. One of the
    lanyards broke, but I was able to put my COVID-19 card in it, and then
    ziplock it shut. This way, it doesn't get dog-eared in the wallet, and
    it's there at a glance.

    Better stock up on Miralax. <G> Speaking of which...

    Facebook has changed their name to Meta -- rumor has it Twitter will change its name to Mucil. So, that means we'll all be on MetaMucil every day. No wonder social media is so crappy. <G>

    I want to tell a vaccine joke
    But some won't get it

    That got shot out of the water.

    need to be kept in freezers...

    At least the needle didn't feel like barbed wire, like those 2 shots
    in my hips did.

    But they encouraged me to immediately return to the vaccination center
    to pick up my glasses.

    I carry an extra set in the car, in case the readers I have break.

    Was it the breast of situations?? Or were you just milking for time off??
