DGO's New Unthread!

Thank you. I did almost nothing yesterday. I'm still not comfortable returning to the old norm. I know too many people who refuse to be vaccinated. I know that viruses can mutate, and though I've been vaccinated, I'm not willing to gamble with my life.

You shouldn’t have to. People make different choices. Some chose to wear masks and some chose not to during this pandemic. Some were arguing about their rights to breathe freely and shop as they pleased while putting others at risk. People had to be pleaded with to WASH THEIR HANDS. To stand 6 feet away from the person in your circumference was an issue as well.

It’s a shame.

Some people think their personal rights supercedes the law.

They should have had to deal the polio vaccine. I was in elementary school and everyone HAD to be vaccinated. The difference was everyone I knew wanted to be vaccinated.
 
I was due for an appointment with the gynecologist later in the week. Early one morning, I received a call from the doctor’s office to tell me that I had been rescheduled for that morning at 9:30 am. I had only just packed everyone off to work and school, and it was already around 8:45am. The trip to his office took about 35 minutes, so I didn't have any time to spare. As most women do, I like to take a little extra effort over hygiene when making such visits, but this time I wasn’t going to be able to make the full effort.
So, I rushed upstairs, threw off my pajamas, wet the washcloth that was sitting next to the sink, and gave myself a quick wash in that area to make sure I was at least presentable. I threw the washcloth in the clothes basket, donned some clothes, hopped in the car and raced to my appointment.

I was in the waiting room for only a few minutes when I was called in. Knowing the procedure, as I’m sure you do, I hopped up on the table, looked over at the other side of the room and pretended that I was in Paris or some other place a million miles away.

I was a little surprised when the doctor said, “My, we have made an extra effort this morning, haven’t we?” I didn’t respond.

After the appointment, I heaved a sigh of relief and went home. The rest of the day was normal .. Some shopping, cleaning, cooking. After school when my 6 year old daughter was playing, she called out from the bathroom, “Mommy, where’s my washcloth?”

I told her to get another one from the cupboard. She replied, “No, I need the one that was here by the sink, it had all my glitter and sparkles saved inside it.”

Never going back to that doctor again……….. never.
