Peacefully

My son got his Bachelor’s Degree in International Business, but he couldn’t get any traction on a career. He had a wife and two children to support, so he ended up working in a warehouse. At the ripe old age of 27 he decided to join the Air Force. They are paying for his Master’s degree in Data Analytics and Machine Learning. The last six months will be a paid internship. I can’t say enough good things about how well the AF has treated him.

Hubby and I received the Moderna vaccine this morning. I had a bit of an anxiety attack, but all went well. I had some soreness, so I took a Tylenol and felt better. I’m tired now, but feeling ok. I was very impressed by folks at the vaccine site. They were so nice! Everything ran smoothly and we were in and out within the hour.

I have an appointment to get my first vaccine tomorrow. I’ve been reading up on mRNA and I can’t say that I’m not a bit concerned since it is pretty new technology. It might have been thought of in the 90s but it sounds like the first practical applications were around 2018. But I know getting as many vaccinated as possible is what will finally get the world back to “normal” so I will do my civic duty tomorrow. Wish me luck, I have panic disorder, but hopefully, you won’t see me on the news screaming, crying, or passed out at the vaccination center, lol.

My daughter received her first shot. We think she made it to the top of the list because she is an educator. Her arm was sore and she was tired the first night, but that was it.

I love watching these guys react to music they’ve never heard. They are only 22 so there are a lot of golden “oldies” for them to mine. Their reaction to this Phil Collins song put Collins back on the charts, and their reaction to his “dropping the beat” towards the end of the song is priceless. It is like I am listening to the song for the first time with them.

Oh wow, that visual really makes it real:(

Hubby and I signed up for the vaccine. We will see how soon we get it.

I grew up in the Church of Christ and we were taught that marriage ended at death. In fact, we were taught that there would be no familial relations in Heaven. I think TeddyAWare is correct about one of the scriptures this doctrine is based on. 30 For in the resurrection they neither marry, nor are given in marriage, but are as the angels of God in heaven. (Matthew 22)It was difficult for me to comprehend how anything could be called Heaven without retaining those family bonds. The teachings about eternal families rang true for me, and this was the main thing that attracted me to the Church of

Obviously, you ain’t from Texas, lol.

Thank you for your response, Pogi. I shared it with my daughter and it made sense to both of us. She was concerned about her one year old not being able to be vaccinated. I think at this point we both feel that the best course of action is to be sure the adults around him most are vaccinated.

I would like to thank you for the work you do, and for the information you impart on this site. I find it very helpful. My daughter had a question the other day about babies and children, and I would love to get your expert opinion. Since there is no vaccine approved for them, yet, how will vaccinating adults protect the babies and children, if it turns out that the vaccine doesn’t prevent the disease, but only makes symptoms milder? I hope this question makes sense.

Strongly agree.
