Presuming you don't want DH to maybe come home with Covid after the baby is born, maybe he should get vaccinated. Babies have zero protection.

There is a video put out by an icu nurse on Rumble.... please look it up.... and for goodness sake please don't get vaccinated until you at least watch it and do some investigating on your own. Aug 12,2021 with Sebastian Gorkle... nearly every site she references, I have looked at. The presentation done by Dr. Pierre Kory to the Senate committee was heartbreaking... he was nearly in tears begging them to at least look at the ivermectin studies done and consider it so that more people didn't die and it has been ignored. rumble.com/vl2uxz-icu-nurse-you are being lied to about Covid

Hubby is pretty sure we already had it at the beginning of last year. I'd like to get an antibody test, to see if we already have antibodies.

7 weeks till due date! Little dude is sticking out like a beach ball.

If all he has to do is wear an N95 mask, I’d skip the test. I wear a N95 mask when cleaning out the horse/sheep barn. It’s not that bad. And it’s usually in hot sweaty conditions and he’d be in AC.

At home this morning it was a little smokey but not too strong. Drove down to work and the air is almost yellow. Looks like a great cloud cover until you realize it's smoke. Parked at work and noticed ash flecks on the black car beside mine. Then I noticed the ash flecks in the air. Now my car is going to be covered with ash in addition to the dirt. I don't think I've washed it for over a year. Probably time to do so. I hope these fires get contained and the smoke clears out. I don't want to imagine how thick the smoke is in areas actually closer to the fires.

Too late, got mine in March and April.

I guess if you start taking Ivermectin you won't have worms

Seems like those who think Ivermectin is a better preventative than the vaccines created specifically for Covid should be able to come up with the money to do scientific testing. She has lots of nice looking charts that say it is very effective but they are not based on proper scientific trials. Must be someone with big bucks out there who thinks there should be actual trials and will spring for them. If it really works, great.

She also talked about hydroxychloroquine, pushed by Trump. He also pushed Remdesivir, which she says is totally ineffective, and injecting/ingesting disinfectants.

She talks about the "ICU bed crisis" in New York and LA driving vaccines/masking requirements, saying it doesn't exist. I think they are trying to make sure it doesn't happen. Why isn't she talking about places where it does exist like Alabama where the vaccination rate is low, they have a 28% positive test rate (up from 5% 2 months ago) and they DO have a serious lack of ICU beds. NPR story yesterday on NEGATIVE number of available ICU beds in Alabama hospitals Is there an ICU crisis everywhere? No. But things are getting worse. A few weeks ago Vermont was again down to single digit cases per day, it was 149 yesterday. 9 people in the ICU and another death. Who are these people? Primarily unvaccinated people and the average is droppon.

And she claims that the mRNA vaccines modify your genes. PATENTLY FALSE! She's also claiming the vaccines were rushed to market when in fact mRNA has been in development for 20 years. She claims prior testing of mRNA on animals was halted because all the animals died. This too is false. At this point I shut her down. Enough with the false claims.

Friday night hubby and I laid out the cut pieces of underlayment and jigsaw puzzle pieced them together to cover the rest of the floor in the den, hallway, and area up to the dining/kitchen zone. Duct tape is your friend!

Saturday I spent the day with dad as mom and brother went to a memorial service for a distant family member who died in the past year (not Covid, she had battled cancer for quite some time). I wasn't very close to that side of the family so didn't feel comfortable attending and someone needed to be with dad.

Saturday hubby had his dad and grandpa come over again and they floored the rest of the prepped area. Now we just need to move all the stuff out of the dining room zone and rip up the carpet, floor, and then do the same to the last bedroom.

Sunday hubby and I ran errands and bought supplies from home Depot for several projects. He added the base boards in the den and I had found a corner trim piece I made him install over the raw edges of the drywall corners. Next step is fixing the transition between the hallway and baby room, I'm hoping we can get that done Monday or Tuesday night. After that we have the window trim to figure out and then I can finally get real blinds/curtains up instead of the tacky blankets and/or bedsheets I've been using.

We were bad and didn't meal prep this weekend, but hubby had made breakfast yesterday, so he still had a breakfast burrito for today. I am going to try to get meal prep done tonight, I should have started the crockpot with chicken before I left for work. Grr.

It's been cool enough the past week I haven't had the misters running just the fans. Yesterday one of the fans stopped working. I need to have hubby look at it and see if it's fixable or if I need to just get another. It was a $20 box fan from Walmart, so won't break the bank if I end up needing a new one.

The garden is doing well, lots of the plants have put out a ton of growth, so it's actually difficult to move around in some areas. I need to move everyone around again to remake the aisle ways. I think a deer is reaching through the gate to chomp on the one pepper plant slightly too close. It's the only explanation I can come up with for missing leaves on only the side closest to the gate. Luckily no deer have jumped in since I put the soap out. I'm wondering if I can get a scarecrow up, if that would help keep the deer out, especially if I can get a mechanized one like they have around Halloween? Hmm.

The progress y'all have made on your house is astounding. Take a bow and pat each other on the back. The house is looking great!

Floors are looking really nice. It is a great feeling. I feel that way everytime I look at the living room floor after it got sanded and the finish put on it.
