Happy Friday

I don't know if anybody noticed, but I haven't been here for about a week. You know the old saying "bad things come in 3's? I think that's what is happening with me. First I end up breaking an ankle. Second, (I just can't believe this) I got the 2 part COVID vaccination, but then I started feeling really bad last Saturday. By Tuesday I could barely do anything because I was so tired and throwing up over and over. So I went into Walgreens and got a COVID test. 2 hours later I get the email with the test results back and learned that I tested positive for COVID. I got so sick that somebody could have set me on fire and I wouldn't have been able to get off the couch. So that's 2 bad things. My grandma always said bad things or bad news always come in 3's. Now I'm all paranoid because the first 2 things were no picnic I'm worried that if a third bad thing happens to roll around my way it's gonna have to be something pretty bad to top the first 2 negative things. It makes me want to hide out under my couch like the dog does when we have a bad thunderstorm....lol How has everybody else's week been going? I hope you are all doing well. And hoping that bad things come in 3's is just an old wives tale. Is anybody else a little superstitious when it comes to things like this. I know some people will scoff at me because I'm really superstitious.

Gee..that is a bad break to get covid after the vax. Says it all really. I am glad you are making it though and are somewhat better? I am superstitious to a point.

I get really superstitious when it comes to watching football. I'm a Green Bay Packer fan and I get so bad that there are certain jerseys I wear and certain things I do. Like eat the same snacks if they won the last time. I don't wash my football jerseys either until there's a loss. I know it sounds weird but I'm convinced if I change or do something different than the week before they'll lose..lol

@RebeccasFarm I love that you call it unusual. I call it weird but I've been doing some of that stuff since I was a child and learned most of it from my dad and my uncles

Oh dear, I am so sorry. So you got Covid soon after you got the vaccination? I hope you are starting to feel better now. I am sure you already had a third bad thing, but it's not coming to your mind. Do not panic, it's over.

@WomanWarrior1969 Sometimes we have difficult times and more serious matters cause us to forget something that already happened. Take care, you will be fine now.

Thanks for saying that about the third thing. It made me feel better and calm down a bit

That is horrible, and I hope the old adage doesn't come true. Feel better.
