I tested myself back in the early December twice came up positive for covid. Probably why I was knocked down hard for 3 days when normally. I'm only maybe down for a day with any sickness. I thought it was odd that I was feeling that crappy.

I did test myself for CoVid and it was negative. I had no respiratory symptoms with are usual with CoVid, a respiratory disease. That's why I think it is a variety of the flu. I have had 2 Moderna vaccines, 3 Moderna booster shots, I have gotten a flu shot(old folks version) for the last 10 or more years and both of the pneumonia vaccine shots. I ware a mask whenever I go inside a business or where people congregate and keep alcohol hand sanitizers in both vehicles and wash my hands when I get home. Apparently not even all that precaution totally prevents viruses from doing their job. I'm 72 years old. The vast majority of deaths due to CoVid are folks over 65 years old. I have never minded wearing a mask and didn't mind getting any of these shots or taking these precautions because my life and my family, friends and neighbors lives are important to me.
Make the most of all that comes and the least of all that goes!

My wife had it at the same time.   We both got the drive thru PRC  (or is it PCR) test at the same time.  I  was positive and she was negative.  A day later I  teste her again at home and she was positive.

We have both had three shots of Moderna but covid didn't give a hoot!   :biglaugh:

I'm 76 and healthier than I deserve to be.   She is 75 with several co morbidities.  I was done with it in five days.   She struggled with after effects for a month.   Neither of us had any respiratory effects though.

Both my wife and I got sicker than a dog in January right before the big Covid announcement was made…. We always wondered if if that was Covid or not that we had. What ever it was it was bad enough to put us both in bed for a week….. but…..we haven’t been sick since…. (Crossing fingers and toes…)

We’ve had all the shots and boosters since then. But now they say we need another one???  I’m no so sure I want anymore of that crap in my system.

Well, the first bow I built, which was definitely a great learning process but the Tiller got away from me so in a bit of frustration lol I hung it on the wall .I was pretty proud of myself. I took it off the wall after giving up and thought the only way to learn is to getatter , It was 3/4 of an inch out of tiller, I did eventually get it to even tiller lost a bit of weight but I now have a bow that shoots pretty damn good then I built this 58 inch same design , thank you Kenny .I never have liked the looks of thumb rests, but I do like the feel in the grip so I played around with this idea to try and make it blend In a little better. Gonna tweak it next time but I think it turned out ok i used the site window cut out so the laminations look like they flow through the thumb rest. The bow shoots real nice they’re both ready for finish. I didn’t really want to build strings right now but north of the border They want $50 a string so I decided I better learn and built myself a jig. And now working on my first take down long bow riser black walnut with a figured maple I-beam, and a simple maple wenge accent stripe. Lol I flipped all these pictures 360 and they still came out sideways sorry!
