I Hope to Get Vaccinated Tomorrow

The stressors of these last few years:

  • The unknown - Getting laid off, and having a family isn’t fun. 
  • Being the new person four times over again - There’s something energizing about being the new person. Like, “Wow they picked me!” It’s also very hard not knowing answers to questions, feeling like I should know this or that. Yep it was hard being the newbie at Fresh Thyme, Williams Sonoma, Midland and AIM. 
  • The non mask wearers - Not knowing if I’d get this awful virus that’s leaking in the air is an odd feeling. I just don’t know how my body would react to having Covid + Asthma. 
There’s more things (like unemployment and everything being remote) that have been hard, but those things above top them. 

I got a Facebook message from a friend I haven’t seen for awhile. I mean even before the pandemic hit. She works at a clinic, and said there’s a slot to get the vaccine. It’s surreal. Am I really getting it? I’ll believe it when it happens. 

I’ve been told to sign up because people with weakened immune systems are up, but teachers worked their way in - not saying they shouldn’t get theirs. It’s just like the excitement went to blah, that sucks. Then I was like, Hey I am a teacher at my second job. But every site I looked at had teachers connected to a union. The the school I worked at opened getting the vaccine, but it was just full time staff, and that county. Well now I officially have a time slot! Let’s hope it happens, and I don’t have a bad reaction. At least I’m getting it in a clinic, so if a reaction does happen I’m in good hands.

I am immunocompromised because the biologics I have to get every 8 weeks strip me of my immune system. I have heard NOTHING about when I get to sign up to have the vaccine. I love my dr. but I have to jump through hoops just to ask him or his nurse a question. I am hoping that since my 6 month check up is on the horizon, they'll have more information for me then. I am so glad you were able to get your vaccine today!
