PSA: Why I Got the Covid Vaccine ~ A HUMOR COLUMN

Not sure about getting the Covid vaccine? ~ Here’s a little humorous story for your Sunday afternoon reading!

😂 Read my top three reasons why I got vaccinated. Maybe it will inspire you to get yours!

Now here is a little “story behind the story” about going to get it:

My husband and I both registered for the vaccine at the same time but for some reason he did not get an appointment but I did. He decided to come with me to get mine as his sister is a nurse and was working at the station where I was scheduled to get mine and he would hopefully have the chance to see her.

As we were headed to the location for me to get my shot she called and said she heard that they were closing down for the day at the exact time of my scheduled appointment due to a storm that was predicted to arrive and that if we hurried and got there she would ask the gate attendants to let us in.

We drove as fast as we safely could and when we got there they were turning people away. Luckily, the attendant asked our names and she waved us through the gate. We were literally the last car in line. And, since they closed early, they had extra doses prepared so they went ahead and gave my husband his shot, too!

We were very fortunate in more ways than one because the storm did come and actually turned into a tornado that hit a mile from us and caused great devastation, but fortunately no loss of life, to our area.

I am very thankful that we were safe, thankful that my sister-in-law was able to alert us to the early closing, thankful for everyone involved in creating and rolling out the vaccines, thankful that my husband was able to get one and thankful that we are fully vaccinated……..but maybe for different reasons than you might think. So I hope you check out my column to find out why I so desperately wanted one.

My B-Metro Column: Sunny’s Entertaining ~ Xmas in July, Baby, it’s Hot Inside!

 

SB xmas

Well, it happened again. For some reason I thought that maybe, just maybe, baking the Southern Living magazine Christmas cake in July would not be as frantic as it is when trying to make it in December. And once again, I was wrong. But, when your nieces ask if you can have a Christmas in July cake baking party you don’t stop to think about the details, you just say it’s a plan! And, so now, I just make myself crazy twice a year. Because, let’s face it, with or without the SLCC, December is the craziest time of the year. And now, July is, too! The best way I thought to sum it up for you was in this little poem. So, here’s the latest scoop on our Second Annual Christmas in July Southern Living magazine cake baking party (sung roughly to the tune of “Let it Snow, Let it Snow, Let it Snow.”)

Oh the weather outside is frightful

But the air inside is so delightful

Now that it’s five below

Let it blow, let it blow, let it blow.

This heat doesn’t show signs of breaking

And I’ve got a cake that’s baking

So I’ve turned the air down real low

Let it blow, let it blow, let it blow.

I don’t know what I was thinking

I guess I must have been drinking

I should have just said “No”

Let it blow, let it blow, let it blow

It sounded like fun at the time

To celebrate Christmas in July

So when your nieces ask you to make

A Southern Living Christmas Cake…

Just say no. Just say no. Just say no.

Just because it’s summer

Doesn’t mean it will be “funner”

Your nerves will still be shot

And the kitchen too damn hot

Just say no. Just say no. Just say no.

The whole of summer break

Is not long enough to make this cake

Too soon they will go back to school

I hope by then that it will be cool.

We won’t have time to make the garnish

On all 27 steps we moved too slow

But it should still taste delish

Just say no. Just say no. Just say no.

I think I’ve learned my lesson

That we should have started sooner

And so next time I will remember

Unless we start it in December

I. will. Just. Say. “No”.

Oh, boy—I sure hope so, I hope so,

I hope so!

You can see all the fun on my website at www.itsreallysunny.com

Until next time…Cheers! ~ Sunny
