Why? She could refuse and wait until she gets sick. We’re all gonna get it sometime whether we get the vaccine or not. Just like the flu......we’ve all had it, I’m sure, at some time in our lives. I had flu really bad about five years ago. It took two rounds of tamilfu and sinus infection meds to get me over it. 30 years ago, it would have done me in and I know it. There’s lots of things worse than dying. I was wit my mother when she passed back in June. I can tell you being sick and feeling really bad, I don’t mean the head cold or stomach bug feel bad, I mean feeling deathly I’ll is much worse than actually going over. I got my vaccine. When my time comes, I am not scared to go. I do still have things I want to do, though.

Right now, I’m just concentrating on keeping my 79 year old dad fairly happy. With Mom gone, he’s lost thirty pounds and his days consist mostly of watching black n white westerns all day while I’m at work. I’ve already put in for an extra week off at work for Spring Break and I’m hoping he’ll go camping and fishing with me and my cousins, his nephews, for the Spring spawn. I so want to get him in that 2’ water for some buck brush fishing for them big slabs!

I believe by summer, this COVID stuff will start trending down.
