Friday

Thank you for the comments on yesterday's post. I started to feel poorly during the middle of the afternoon and as soon as the egg delivery arrived, I went to bed. I had flu like symptoms, thankfully not too bad, and felt shivery and sleepy but I slept well and feel okay at the moment.

I don't plan on doing much today but I am expecting a couple of deliveries - a patio fruit tree, and a Hello Fresh delivery filled with freebie meals (but more about that another time) - so can't stay in bed. Also M may be here later on. I missed a text from her yesterday so I'm not sure what's happening and I'll contact her later if she doesn't turn up. We didn't arrange a date for her next visit last time she was here so if she doesn't arrive it's not a problem and I'll contact her to get a date in the diary.

    The side effects sound about the sane as I had but it soon passes and hopefully you will feel OK today. I see it as the vaccine doing it's job and it's a relief to feel protected. Enjoy your rest today and I'll look forward to reading about your freebie meals, free is good.

      I'm fine now thanks and like you, I'm relieved to have the full level of protection available at present. The freebie meals didn't arrive but I'll explain why tomorrow.

    The side effects are an indication your immune system is responding to the vaccine. Glad you were able to sleep well and are feeling better, today. Hope you continue to feel better. I took some acetaminophen when I had my side effects to get the fever down and it helped. Do try to rest and take it easy, today.

      That's a good sign then but I am glad to be feeling better! I was expecting it to trigger a migraine so didn't take anything so that I could use my prescription meds if the migraine kicked off. Fortunately it didn't.

      I haven't done much at all today so feel really rested.

    I'm glad you slept well and I'm hoping today you feel increasingly fit and well again.

      I'm back to normal now thanks, just a bit tired but that's all.

      The Hello Fresh order didn't arrive!

      Yes, they emailed to say it wouldn't be delivered.

    I've read that often there are stronger reactions from the 2nd shot of the COVID vaccine, but hopefully it was only 24 hours of reaction. Maybe if the weather is nice enough, you can sit on your patio & enjoy your gardening efforts to date or watch M as she works her magic. I hope you have a good weekend :)

      I sat outside and chatted for part of the time when M was here but it was a bit too chilly for me so I withdrew to the warmth of the living room.

    Hi Eileen,
    I read now that you took your second shot of the vaccine. I haven't taken a dose yet. I'm signed up and they haven't called me yet. What was the brand name of the vaccine that was given to you?
    I hope that today you are already recovered from the side effects and that your weekend is as pleasant as possible.
    Hugs,
    Ailime

      Thanks Ailime. I had the Pfizer vaccine. The side effects weren't too severe and I'm feeling fine now.
