How’s Eddie?

I'm getting my second Pfizer on Tuesday. Including the waiting period I was in and out in 27 minutes. They processed 2400 people that day, and as somebody else mentioned there were no complainers or angry people. Everybody was there because they wanted to be. I was going to hold off until people who needed it more were taken care of, but right now they seem to have more vaccine than qualified people. A "lollie"... is that what we call a lolipop or piece of candy on a stick? If so when this is over than I'm moving to Australia!

Yep, or any kind of 'boiled sweet'. Sister had a basket full of them.

Crickey, I might as well explain that 'Sister' is what we call our Nurses (ie: a Nursing Sister).

Good idea. I thought you were referring to a sibling.

I thought he was talking about a nun.

Proof positive that many incorrect ideas can be spread over a forum pretty quickly. And not just between cultures as wide spread geographically as "down under" and North America. We have plenty of misunderstanding in our own country between different cultures, let alone if we bring the Canucks into the mix.

Or Yoopers!

In Austria nurse still called Sister by older generation stemming from the time when almost all nurses at Catholic hospitals were nuns

Mom went to convent nursing school and had pictures of her in her nun robes...

The plan was to be nun but a wise mother superior said mom is so young only knowing the convent and the farm and said before she takes final vows she should go one year on a nurse exchange program to San Jose California.

Mom met Dad and Austria lost a future nun...

The world needs more people like that wise Mother Superior...

I think mom would have made a great nun... and worked nearly 50 years as a nurse...

Think of the movie Sound of Music... same convent and location.
