I told my chemist about getting an excellent (!?!) reaction to the flu jab and he laughed, but did point out he has heard anecdotal evidence that the rsv bug is moving through our community at high speed, so now I might have a natural immunity to that one as well as this years vaxed flu and covid. I told him I'd rather have the needle, lol.
And yes, about people who make it all about them. It was being 'herded' into doing what she wanted that probably broke it for me. I've become rather averse to being manipulated since gaining my freedom from looking after other people, though it is very different when those people are loved ones, it is still an imposition that can get to be a burden. I like being responsible for just me, even if it comes with costs.
Today I am going to attempt a bed linen change and then I need to redo a terracotta bowl for my winter deck. I scored bargain primroses yesterday in the chuck out bin, with great fat green leaves, just waiting for a bit more room to produce buds for the cool days. I am so happy with them I might grab another punnet when I go down tomorrow to get the other half of the fortnight's groceries. And I have this little round red pumpkin that needs to be made into soup, it's going to be a busy day...
