Fbg 6.5
Still tired. Resting today. And doing a photo/art in a bit after a few more teas and coffees.
Yesterday was my 2nd Covid vaccination appointment. But I already had the second one beginning of July and I was assured both injections were on their computer system.
But when I checked the NHS app, my Covid passport only showed the July Covid injection, not the the beginning of February one. Welsh government guidelines said go to your GP to sort out any discrepancies. But I don't have a GP, there have been no GP's at this so called GP practice since 2019. Even locums don't want to go there.
So when I got this call up to attend second Covid vaccination yesterday at the Rainbow hospital, I attended because they are probably best placed to sort your NHS computer records.
But I was still overtired from Wednesday's hospital visit and procedure, and was feeling so negative I didn't want to go yesterday. But I made myself.
It was raining yesterday so again I couldn't use my mobility scooter for the long walk from car to hospital. Then the heavens opened, and not just a bath water full dropped on me but the entire Irish Sea...
I was more drowned than a drowned rat.
I was really stressed because of the usual, communication problems and with people wearing masks and me needing to lipread etc. And my negative thoughts, because of how hard it is, and so much more effort for a profoundly deaf person in masked Covid times, had spiralled to new depths the day before.
A really nice male nurse helped me with this issue. It took him half an hour fighting with the computer but he came back triumphant. You are on the NHS records for both jabs now, he said. Check the NHS app in a day or so and it will appear then, and you have your Covid passport. He also said the booster jab needs to be at least 6 months after the 2nd Covid jab, and I would receive an appointment in January (or to book online if I didn't get it).
I came home absolutely soaked and exhausted, my rain jacket had no waterproof effect, I was soaked through. I wrapped warm and was in bed to keep warm, and slept most of the rest of the day.
My daily art/creative will be later. A few more hot cups coffee, and hot cups of tea needed. And I want a hot breakfast first. I actually feel hungry. I rarely have hunger feelings...
Take care.
Do what you feel like doing.
Never mind that your urgent jobs list has just increased a hundred fold. It won't matter when you are pushing up daisies.
At least I don't live with another person who would complain of the mess...except Popeye does grumble sometimes when he has to find new ways to navigate the bungalow...
