  1. We have 2 kids too young to be vaccinated, and 1 still in process of being vaccinated. We are all wearing masks inside still, and even though our rates are currently very low, Delta has arrived and there is an uptick. We try to avoid having the littles go to inside places. We have had some playground play dates without masks, but playgrounds are not crowded here. If we were at crowded outdoor spaces, I would have them mask unless there was an danger of overheating. We are moving in October to FL, and I really hope the vaccines are approved for under 12s before then.
  2. So, without ALL my history, what do these hormone levels tell me? I'm still waiting for my doctor's answer, and googling in the meantime. LH.LC 174.5 mIU/mL FSH.LC 68.3 mIU/mL Everything I'm looking at has the LH normal range way down below a hundred. DH looked up pituitary glands, and tumors - I have 5 or 6 other symptoms on those lists. I'm hoping the simple answer is early menopause...I'm 40.
  3. Dd15 had her second shot last Thursday! Nothing to report! She felt fine and had zero complaints.
  4. This whole tutoring thread has me jealous! I would gladly bend over backwards for a good tutor! Dd11 has a SLD in math and is getting support via Zoom from our local school, but the year is ending and I don’t know what to do with her over summer. Due to a constellation of her issues, she won’t let me teach her math. Anyway - carry on!
  5. Dd15 had her first shot Thursday. She said her neck hurt a few hours afterward, but that could have been related to the way she slept. No other complaints, and she was happy to have the shot!
  6. I plan on masking and behaving in basically the same ways we've been doing, since my 3 under 12 cannot have a vaccine. My dd15 had her first shot yesterday. One of my under 12s is higher risk (dd11), so changing our behavior now would not be protecting her at all. Ds7 is very worried about getting COVID, and to let him or dd4 contract it and have complications would be horrible! So, if people in my area drop masking altogether, I guess we will stay home and hunker down like we've been doing all year. *sigh* The county vaccination rates are at 41% for 16 and up. The positivity rate is 16%. The bigger county bordering is at 53% vaccinated, and 18% positivity. If our positivity rates were low, I think I would feel differently. Dh may have his own ideas, but I can usually bring him around to mine, LOL.
  7. I'm late to the party, but I hope you had a great celebratory time! You absolutely deserve to celebrate!! 🥳
  8. We are showing our house Sunday, so this weekend will be non-stop cleaning. I guess it’d be a nice gift if everyone helps without complaining!
  9. I'm so excited to have my almost 12 year old protected! She's our highest risk child. Our 15 year old will be happy to get back to activities, too!
  10. I’m honored to be recognized! @Spy Car has done a wonderful job with all the new avatars!
  11. Is Geneva out of your shopping area? I could ask my family if there is anything near them available.
  12. I had a sore arm after the first dose. I had the second dose yesterday, so I can’t answer the poll yet. So far, I didn’t sleep well - hot/cold - I have a very mild headache, and a tad achy.
  13. Second shot done! House Pfizer Hopefully 🙏🏻 if I have side effects, I’ll feel good by Friday! We are supposed to camp. I’m so relieved to have it over, even though I might feel rough for awhile.
  14. Thanks! It’s actually a favorite painting I own! I figured out how to make it my avatar way before the Big Board Upgrade, so I’m glad it transferred, lol. 😆
  15. Me, too! I see photos of friends from all over the country, but mostly FL and the Midwest - it’s like they live in a different world.
  16. I am so so sorry. I’m praying.
  17. Okay, I need the Cliff notes on these two areas. I've seen them flying around Twitter and some FB groups, but I do not engage in discussions on those platforms. I'm not looking for a debate, just a brief outline on the history and current use of them. I feel like they are two areas that go together - like those who adhere to complementarianism would also endorse Biblical counseling efforts and approaches. Am I wrong in thinking that?
  18. 24 hours since the first Pfizer shot for me. My arm is sore, but that’s it. I actually have more energy today than usual! Maybe it’s a vaccine that will increase our strength, speed, and stamina - or am I just watching too many Marvel movies? 😉 Dh had first Moderna shot last Thursday, and had a sore arm as well.
  19. Done! 45 minutes afterward and I don’t even feel the site. I hope it stays that way. The mass vaccination site was busy and I was a bit disappointed with the flow. They had everyone snake through a hallway to check-in. People were milling around with various degrees of masks. One guy had his off completely and no one said anything to him. Hopefully my Happy Mask worked well! 😬
  20. My just turned 4 year old wasn’t ever sick, but one of her big sisters has lots of time feeling sick, so she plays doctor on a regular basis. She took really well to masking and now asks that all her dolls have them too. I don’t know what she will think when we start going to things again.
  21. My doctor’s office got back to me and said food allergies aren’t related to the vaccine reactions, nor are my antibiotic allergies. They said I’m good to go with any shot. I was able to schedule a Pfizer shot tomorrow afternoon at a mass vaccination site, so fingers crossed! There are 72 slots every 15 minutes - it will be the most people I’ve seen in over a year! Yikes!
  22. I have mild asthma that occasionally needs an inhaler. I hardly go anywhere, but we will all need to travel this summer. I always mask, but it puts my glasses in a weird spot and it gives me a headache. All our kids are too young for vaccines. My most fragile kid has uncontrolled asthma and anxiety. (She refuses her asthma meds). Two kids are hypothyroid due to genetics.
  23. I have a choice in vaccines available to me. I missed the Moderna slot last week, but my husband got his, yay! This week, a Pfizer and J&J slot are open, or I could wait for another Moderna. I have several weird allergies to food and spices and carry an epi-pen, although I’ve never had to use it. Also, I have allergies to many antibiotics (penicillin, etc). I also have vaccine anxiety. 🤪 I will ask my primary doctor, but they don’t know me very well and haven’t been very helpful in the past. So, any things for me to consider?
  24. We went on our first of many camping trips and had a great time! Yesterday we fished, biked, played games, told stories, and watched a marveL movie. Today we colored eggs, hunted eggs, listened to music, had a devotional, and are heading home. It was a wonderful change from watching online services, and I think it made the weekend special.
