Vaccinated!

 The email came on Wednesday.... my employer offered several time slots for us to go to my office and get our second Pfizer injections.

We went yesterday at 11 am.

So far, my arm hurts.. like.. a lot.... and yesterday, about 4 hours after our injections, I felt really fatigued and headachy...  I laid down and fell asleep for about a half hour, and then I felt a bit better.

Took it pretty easy after that....made Dave a steak dinner (his birthday is tomorrow), and then sat in front of the tv until bed time.

My sleep was fitful last night (but then, it usually is), but so far, this morning, I feel pretty okay...

I'm wondering, though, if it could change as the day goes along.

EDIT:  Yes, it has changed as the day has gone along.  I am feeling VERY low energy, have a dull headache, can't get warm, and my joints hurt. No fever, though.  

I've been seeing that the Pfizer vaccine is not as problematic for people as the Moderna one, so maybe I'll just feel a bit tired and achy... we shall see. 

A friend got the Moderna, and she felt terrible after her second shot.  Feverish, and exhausted.  I really hope that doesn't happen, but we got chicken soup and crackers with our groceries this week, just in case.

Even if we feel good, we'll have that for lunch anyway, simply for the comfort food factor!

We also made sure to leave today completely open, with no plans, and no pressure, so we can just rest if we don't feel well.

There's really nothing else to report this week.  Winter has come back, so there won't be any hiking, or even taking walks, most likely.   

Oklahoma doesn't get a lot of bitterly cold weather, but next week, it is supposed to be far colder than it usually is down here.  NOTHING like what my family and friends are dealing with up north, right now, but dangerous cold for this gardening zone, to be sure.

There will be broken water pipes all over the region, I'm sure.  Ours lie on the ground under our house, in the crawl space, for example.... we're just praying they stay in-tact during a week of extreme cold.

Stay safe and warm, and have a good week!
