Well, Phase 1c of the Covid vaccine was released today, which means it’s available for me and my husband, him for diabetes and heart condition and me for chronic kidney disease.
I was lucky enough to get appointments for us at Walmart, which is right up the street, so we don’t even have to go very far, and they are for this Sunday, so not that much of a wait, either. Amazing!
I was really surprised, especially on the first day of release of this phase of the vaccine, because I figured everyone eligible would be all over it, and there wouldn’t be any appointments available. Of course, when I first tried the Health Department, that’s what I found. Or at least that’s what I think I found – it was all so very confusing to me on that site!
The important thing is that we will have our vaccines in time to do the flea market this month, which is fantastic, since it’s been over a year that we’ve been able to do it, and we’ve really missed the extra money.
So, looks like things may actually be getting back to some semblance of normal here pretty soon, which is really good news.
Other good news – the $1400 stimulus checks should be out this month as well. Yeah! We think of it as found money, but you have to wonder where this money came from in the first place, and how we’re gonna “pay” for it in the long run, like did it come from Social Security funds or what? Know what I mean? Hmmm… Just wondering.
With all this going on, this will be the first time in many years that we will actually be ok financially. Wow. It’s like a miracle. I actually don’t know how I feel about that. Happy, for sure. Amazed, no doubt. Contented? Secure? Or still insecure (as always), wondering when the next shoe will drop, afraid this means the washer is about to break down, or the car will need a new engine, or something catastrophic will happen.
I’m not a negative person, really I’m not. Actually, I’m a really positive person. But it just seems that every time we get ahead, something happens. We’ll see.
But I’m not going to worry about that. Or anything else. I’m just going to enjoy this bit of prosperity. And my health, and all the other blessings in my life. Like my stability with my bipolar disorder. Coming up on 13 years without a major episode! Praise the Lord! I am so very grateful. I wish the same for you.
Wishing you joy and stability,
Remember God loves you and so do I,
Michele
