Please, don't judge me

Because that's not why I'm here. If you can't make a contributable comment, move on.

I've been watching 007 movies since 10am this sunday morning. How about you?


On friday I made a personal and conscious decision to get "the shot", so I just been lounging around all day. You see, my work is governed by OSHA, so anything they tell us we have to do, we have to do it. I can't afford to not work, and I honestly can't see myself going out every week for a test. And if the test would come back positive with no symptoms, I won't be able to work for 2 whole weeks, and with bills I can't afford to sit at home with no income, because there is no more covid pay from what I've heard.

Moving on, I was fine all of friday, early saturday I woke up with a headache, took excedrin migraine the headache was suppressed, kind of, but came back, woke up today with a headache, took excedrin migraine, had a hotdog and reese cups and headache completely gone. I also had some body aches which are now also completely gone.

As of right now I feel like I did before I had gotten the shot, but I had it done at my doctors office. I just felt like that should be the place to go for a shot. Even though CVS does it, walmart does it, I'm old fashioned. Shots are done at the doctors office. Plus, they have more immediate resources than a retail store does when it would come to a medical emergency.

Why would any one judge you there is nothing wrong with vaccines but the government should never mandate or control what you put in your body...

@masterofyou There are people here who are against vaccines. I have my own feelings about it, mandates are wrong imo, and I would never judge anyone who wants to get it either. I didn't want to, but at this point I just feel like I have to.

@twiigss always do what is comfortable for you others can do whatever is right for them.. Don't let others judge you...

Thank you for being vaccinated. 🌷

@JackJames Why would judgment only be negative? And even so, not everyone agrees about the vaccine for this covid stuff to be good. lol It was just how I saw it...like still a judgment against those not vaccinated.

judge
form an opinion or conclusion about.
"it is hard to judge whether such opposition is justified" · [more]
synonyms:
form the opinion · come to the conclusion · conclude · decide · determine · [more]

To judge is not the same as being judgmental.

@SW-User I’m sorry but that’s the definition. People will always say, good judgement but whenever someone uses it the way he did, they generally mean nothing negative. Now they might not want to get it and therefore could be negative. However, the person who posted this said nothing and therefore either one doesn’t care or 2 didn’t find it offensive. So you decided to come in and give your 2 cents where it wasn’t needed.
SW-User
@JackJames I'd give you my two cents about your pompous comment but it probably wouldn't sink in. YOU gave your two cents where I didn't see it as needed either. I was finding things a bit humorous, but you killed that and made it a big debate.
Now...go away, please.

My daughter just recently got her 2nd and has experienced the headaches, but she also got a few nosebleeds, and the roof of her mouth got sore, which I thought was weird.

@Sunnykel76 how old is she and is it pfizer or moderna? My niece got it and she was out for a few days like 2 or 3 but is fine now, and my dad got it also and was fine as well.
Sunnykel76 · 46-50, F
@twiigss she's 20 and got Moderna

No judgment it’s not our fault that people in charge want to divide us any way they can.
It’s your body and you do what you think you should do .

You did exactly what was right for you. It sucks that your work, or OSHA, is a whore to the government, and forces you to make a decision like that. But I am glad you are all right.

I had mild flu like aches and a headache also, after I had my shot. I got my shot because I would rather not die...😉.
twiigss · M
@4meAndyou Did you have 2 shots or 1 shot?
twiigss · M
@4meAndyou Thanks for your kindness :)
4meAndyou · F
@twiigss Two. I had the moderna vaccine, because it is supposed to be safer for people who might have an allergic reaction. And you are most welcome. I feel so badly that you had to make such a stinking sucky choice.

If you get any judgmental comments, just delete them. You had your own reasons for getting the vaccine and you don’t need to justify your reason for doing it to anyone.

I’ve been watching a mix of horror movies and football today. Little too cool and drizzly to go out. Have you seen the latest Bond movie yet?

I had my covid shots early this year. Work is making them mandatory next month, so I was ahead of the curve on that.
Havesomefun2 · 56-60, M
@crystalkid never judge you
twiigss · M
@crystalkid Is that the newer one to come out with Daniel Craig? I haven't seen it yet, but I'm sure it's going to be filled with tons of action like the older movies.

Yea OSHA hasn't made an official statement for our work yet, but I wanted to be ahead of it, if that does come out.
crystalkid · 56-60, T
@twiigss yes, No Time To Die. I saw it opening day, afternoon show, so only 12 or so people in the theatre. I enjoyed it.

I did my shots as early as I could for a few reasons. I thought it was right for me, I thought it would help me protect some immunity compromised family members, and I had a feeling it was going to be a requirement for travel should I choose to go anywhere.
SW-User
For a second, I thought you meant not to judge you for watching 007 movies. Anyway, good point about pharmacies not being equipped for medical emergencies. I never thought about that before.
twiigss · M
@SW-User Well, I would hope no one judges me for watching 007 movies 🤭.

But yea I felt like if I'm gonna get this done, I want to have it done at my doctors office.

Why would anyone care if you did or didn’t take the vax
twiigss · M
@TexChik Eh, there's people who are completely against it, and there are people who you at one point might have agreed with, in regards to never getting it, but then your own personal circumstances change, and those people might see you differently after getting it.
TexChik · F
@twiigss I will never take it or be forced to take it . I am opposed to tyranny. However you did what you had to
