And the conclusion is...

 

                                                        

My reasoning has seemed to be proven with a blatant news report that Marco Island folks should stay by their phones since their entire island will be getting scheduled for the COVID-19 vaccine!!!

Moving on...

Doctor Pepe from the Charlotte County Florida Health Department, please know that we have been on the list nearly since there was a list!

Do not say that calling again is for naught.

We are getting mixed messages by being told to keep trying, when days turn into weeks and weeks turn into months and you and your husband of fifty years both in our seventies with many pre-existing medical problems never are scheduled then what are we to do?

I am unable to travel long distances due to my medical problems, mostly my MS and spinal stenosis causing any travel out of my ten-mile radius to put me in agony and bedridden for days after!

I have had four surgeries this past year alone.

And most recently I have found out I also have heart disease.

I had tried even the Publix site, and that too was filled before I could get us both scheduled they were all gone!

This system is not right when people who are on the list are skipped over!

Please know we believe there are inequities in this program, but why is that sir?

Perhaps the accusations about our governor giving his contributors to his re-election campaign have some legs???

I do not know for sure, but from our view in the cheap seats, it sure seems that way!


And so we must go for now...

Please be smart, as well as safe.
Have a very pleasant night.


Count those blessings, and we will too!
Next time, please be here, or be square, ya hear!

Aussie, say Good day!

I am Aussie, not being from Australia but American-made. I will comply anyway for the fun of it,... so I will say Good Day!

I am called Aussie because my Mom asked a sixteen-year-old girl, who had been looking at me, in the crate at the adoption site that day what she thought I should be named. And without a second thought, the teenager had said, Aussie! She was just looking, by the way,... so Mom did not steal me from her.
We never did find out the girl's name, and Mom liked the name Aussie too. We have since found out that it is a very common name, but it is still just right for me! My parents think that I am uncommon though,...some might say even unique! I do like that.
I am an Australian Shepherd. Here is an interesting factoid I was supposed to be a miniature Australian Shepherd but,...as you might know, I AM NOT! Although I am now three years old, so I am the baby, though tipping the scales around seventy pounds, HA! A very big one! 
I was three months old when Mommy and Daddy adopted me. I had been taken out of a hoarder's home in the Carolinas with my litter. Below is my new PIC that had been taken on the birthday that I share with my Dad, but Dad is much, much older than me!!! I was the first to be adopted, February 16, 2018, his brother's birthday.
                            3 months................................................3 years

No tail/tale publishing, circa 2018. 
Get it? I was born without a tail, preferable for Australian shepherds, only one out of five are born that way!

                                           
Hello, I am Bella, a Maltese Yorkie, a Morkie, and I might be five years old. The middle child, so I am what you would expect, with all those idiosyncrasies that go along with all that! Being the only girl has its rewards as well as difficulties...We are all rescues, so no one knows for sure our ages. I was turned in from my previous family, stating, that I was misbehaving with their elderly dog, they had said that I was driving him crazy! I was the second to be adopted on 8/18/18, on clear the shelters' day!Oh, by the way, my record's called me Belle, and so for no known reason, Mom decided I was more of a Bella; beautiful either way!


And please don't forget me, I am Chance a Bichon Frise! I am six years old, so they think, and the eldest, and I like getting up early with Mom and Aussie. Bella sleeps in with Dad, till after seven! I enjoy a good tug-of-war on the ropes that Dad had twisted for Aussie and me, and sometimes even Bella plays too! I was the last to be adopted on January 23, 2020. 

I was wandering the neighborhood for days and then saw Aussie and Bella in their living room window so I hung out there... The Animal Welfare League checked me out and kept me for sixteen days until I was allowed to be adopted. Good evening? 

Now my name of Chance is because I was given another chance, could be only the second one or perhaps more... The animal control lady came out to see if I had a chip with her machine, and Dad told her that he wanted to name me Chance. His reason being, that if no one claimed me I want to give him a second chance! So that is how I got the name Chance!

Easy as Aussie, Bella, Chance, now you got it!
