Shot #3....laid me low again!

 To be clear.  I only got the 3rd Moderna vaccine because I am "immuno compromised".  I have 2 diseases that qualified me:  Rheumatoid Arthritis and Graves Disease plus, I take a daily steroid pill.  I had to fill out a form to qualify.  That is the only reason I got a 3rd shot so soon.  I slept pretty much all day yesterday!  It's so funny that it does that to me.  I slept 4-6 hours during the day and then 10 hours last night....amazing!  I really sleep too.  I feel fine today and have been getting things done.

There was an injured baby deer over by my neighbors fence.  She called me, of course! LOL!  I gave her the number of the Fish and Game people but no one answered so she called the Sheriff.  They came out and of course, scared the deer.  I'm not sure what they thought they would be able to do but we have so little crime here that they are bored and anxious to get out and do something.  Thank God they didn't shoot it!  I hope the little girl/guy is okay.  It was it's lower leg but it didn't look broken but she wasn't putting weight on it.  The poor little thing is an orphan on top of it all.

Tuesday I made my first rustic sourdough bread and it turned out and was delicious!  I love sourdough anything now.  It didn't raise quite as much but It still made a nice slice of bread.

Today I have 2 big pots of chicken broth cooking.  One was a raw carcass and it is simmering on the stove.  

The other was a cooked carcass and it is in my crock pot.  I freeze carcasses and also bones until I have enough to make it worthwhile and then I freeze the broth in bags laid flat in my freezer.

I've been cleaning my bedroom this afternoon.  It's thundering out and it's gotten dark so we may be getting some rain.  I should cook up some bacon for BLT's tonight but we'll see how much energy I have left for today.

I hope you are having a good Friday and please pray that everyone gets out of Afghanistan that needs too.  They should have trained the afghan women to fight the Taliban...they were more motivated and had more to lose!

What a scary situation!

Happy Trails!!!

Vaccines affected my children the same way. I would hear all these stories from my friends and a list of possible reactions from the pediatrician. But they usually fell asleep on the ride home and took long naps and slept through the night. Just a body's way to cope, I guess. Glad you are doing well! I think making chicken broth during a thunderstorm sounds perfect!

Oh your rustic bread looks great! We finally got rain today!

We had just a bit of rain today too. Lots of noise, (thunder & lightening), but not a lot of rain.
I'm glad you have the third shot behind you. Now you know you'll be protected for awhile anyway.
The bread looks great and homemade chicken broth is so much better than using bouillion cubes, etc. I can't wait until we find another freezer. I miss having a place to stock up in.
Take care and make sure to get plenty of rest.
Blessings and hugs,
Betsy

I'm glad you feel good after sleeping off your 3rd jab. I'm also glad you could get it. I'm pretty sure I'll gladly take a booster shot when my time comes around. Your making brother pictures, for some reason, reminded me I have some saved Ham and Bean soup in the freezer. I wonder what I'm waiting for to eat it. I think it will be on the menu some time this upcoming week. :) Thanks for the reminder.

That was supposed to read "Your making broth pictures..." ;^)
