shuttered shot by summerfield

shuttered shot

bamboo poses by the kitchen shuttered doors, and gets to live another day.

i'm seriously considering bamboo and chocolate but i think that would be sacrilege.

on thursday morning, i was talking to our minister when she asked me how long my arm was sore after i got the shot. i felt my arm and there was no soreness anymore. i was fine the whole day but when i was getting ready for bed, i felt a pain in my armpit and noticed that it was sore. i sort of panicked as it was soft to the touch but i felt a couple of something beady inside and the soreness extended to the side of my left breast. i put a cold compress overnight but it was still the same when i woke up in the morning. i meant to call the doctor's office but with meetings and all that crap it was already after 5 when i thought about calling again. the swelling had subsided just a little bit. so when i went to bed, i put cold compress again and when i woke up this morning, swelling and pain was gone. i was thinking: did i just dream that?

i watched the funeral this morning (which i almost forgot) and felt so sad for our queen. my letter is ready for posting, as soon as i'm able to go out.
Nice setting.

A beautiful shuttered shot

Your immune system seems have accepted your vaccine well, so that's good news, not good that work got in the way of you contacting doctor for reassurance!!

Funeral, as are all, was poignant, The Queen was stoic and so sad to see her so isolated, wonder how long before our gutter press call for her to abdicate?

Stay sane as you keep safe Vikster!

Lovely silhouette!
And not to discourage you from a doctor visit but a possible explanation for what you have concerns about.:

I really like the creative way you have processed this one. The low key effect and background you have chosen makes it a perfect composition. Still going strong.

Sorry to hear about your arm but so glad to know it is improving.

Fabulous atmosphere.
The vaccine is only just starting to roll out here. I'm guessing it's a few months before my husband and I are eligible to register for the it. I hope that you have no more problems potentially related to your vaccine

@wyomingsis - thanks for this link; the information is certainly helpful. the lymph node side effect is not mentioned in any of the canadian government's website so i think it would help them if i tell my doctor about it. the strange thing is it seemed to have come back because i can feel it again and although it's not as painful as last week, it's pestering me now. and now i have 'bruising' in the inside part of my arm. i just had my mammogram in july last year; i don't think i'm scheduled for another one this year as i think we need to have it only every two years. i'm pretty sure my gung-ho doctor would want me to have another because of this. it's my punishment for not wanting to take cholesterol pills so she tries to make me undergo painful exams of anything. thanks again.

@30pics4jackiesdiamond - i don't think she'll abdicate even if stupid would call for it. one of those commentators had said more brits prefer PW to be king rather than PC, as PW seems to be more like HMTQ and PC is more aristocratic than his mother. plus a lot of brits apparently don't like PC wife to be queen and when that happens, that might spell the end of the british monarchy. if HMTQ is no longer queen, i go back to my cave because the only reason why i'm in canada is because of her. no kidding!

Your image is so cool! My friends who had side effects were better in two days. I hope all will be okay for you soon. Big hugs from Texas.

I like the multiple slats and their texture. The bamboo looks like a silhouette.

Great background to your bamboo.

A scary way to wake up, keep alert and if in doubt call your doctor Vikki! Like your edit!
