    Got my vaccine. Hoping you all are well.

    Not in any rush to take it. I'm convinced I've already had the virus and I'm not sure why I'd want to take a vaccine that offers minimal benefit to me and apparently offers no benefit to society either. If people who have had the vaccine are still expected to follow all the same mitigation protocols as the unvaccinated, and the virus has a 0.02% chance of killing me, it's hard to see any benefit in me having it.

    Aside from vaccines, it's been a mostly idle day. We've got some get-togethers with friends this weekend which should be good. I just hope the weather is at least reasonable. The forecast is that we may get some rain but whether "some rain" is some sprinkles overnight or monsoons all day remains to be seen.

    Move 9 tons or soil/sand mix in mother in laws yard.

    I think I’ll just die now.

    Good to know. And yes I am fine. I think somewhere in this month I will get my first.

    Got both shots several months ago. Biggest event for me is that I have an appointment with LifeLine Screening this afternoon.

    Spent the weekend in a cabin in the mountains with friends from church. Lots of food, good fellowship and conversation.

    Sounds like fun. Thursday is going to be busy for me. Go for blood tests in the morning. Go directly to have chest xrays and an appointment with my massage therapist in the afternoon.

    Sun is shining, but still -3°C. We should be up to 18°C by Friday. Maybe spring can get started then. My tulips are about 3-5" above the ground (at least those not chewed down by the deer.

    Deer around my place are a scourge.

    Homeowner association does not allow any hunting, and too many of these idiots in here "feed the deer" corn in the front yard because they are "pretty".

    Game warden and independent doctoral level game management studies say we need to thin the herd by approximately 60 percent, as the herd is very thin, over produces little/small deer, and they have grazed ALL of the underbrush from thousands of acres here in the mountains.

    HOA members won't approve a game management controlled kill, and the HOA management to too afraid to take action independently.

    Very sad.

    As a result, these little deer eat everything, including things that are supposedly "deer resistant," including azaleas, rhodedendron, even jonquils, daffodils, and helibores.

    Sounds like you need some wolves and cougars.
    Fortunately most people here are not feeding the deer. We just happen to live in the wintering grounds for both moose and deer. They are pretty scarce come late spring and summer.
