These thoughts (written by another) just about sum it up.

You are not vaccinated, I respect your choice, (provided you don't invade my space and adversely impact me or persons important to me); 

I am vaccinated, respect my choice ...

I'm vaccinated, not to please the government but:

* To not die from Covid-19.

* To NOT clutter a hospital bed if I get sick.

* To hug my loved ones 

* To Not have to do PCR or antigenic tests to go to a dance, go to a restaurant, go on vacation and many more things to come ...

* To live my life.

* To have my kids/grandkids go back to school and play sports. 

* For Covid-19 to be an old memory.

* To protect us.

On the other hand, no, I don't know what's in it - neither in this vaccine, the ones I had as a child, nor in the Big Mac, or in hot dogs, or in other treatments, whether it's for cancer, AIDS, the one for  polyarthritis, vaccines for infants or children.

I also don't know what's in Ibuprofen, Tylenol, or other meds, it just cures my headaches, my pains ...

I don't know what's in the ink for tattoos.

In short ...

There's a lot of things I don't know.

I just know one thing: life is short, very short,  so I still want to do something other than just going to work every day or staying cloistered at home. I still want to travel and hug people without fear, find a little feeling of life "before".

As a child and as an adult I've been vaccinated for mumps, measles, rubella, polio, chicken pox, yellow fever and a few others; my parents and I trusted the science and never had to suffer through or transmit any of said diseases ... just saying.

Gardens at the Leaf, Assiniboine Park.

A lovely day! Angela's hubby Bruce came to my rescue to cut the AC window bracket to fit and shave down one foot of my bulletin board stand to fit under the serger table! Then out for coffee with Edna then surprised her with a walk in the Leaf Garden at Assiniboine Park. What a beautiful place and glad it was coolish weather to keep others away some! I can imagine what this place will be like in a couple years! Then finished off with supper at George's with Sylvia, who also likes this place too, going home with half her meal! I've not been there for years, glad to see all is the same and scrumptious!!! Now feet up!

The Leaf, far way off to opening yet!
