OVERNIGHT OATS- 3 DIFFERENT WAYS! — Bombay Ficus

Celebrating Small Wins — Luna

Do you know what are we doing today?   Guys do you know what are we doing today?!  We are celebrating small wins!  I had a small win yesterday. It was actually a big win for me because it took time, dedication and self-control to achieve this and I am very proud of myself for doing this.  Yesterday it has been a year since I quit smoking. I have not had a cigarette for 365 days. Yes, I know it’s a nasty habit I didn’t need to begin with but it is what it is. I started to smoke when I was 16 and now I am 24 years old and one year smoking free.  If you just had to re-read the fact that I started smoking when I was 16, don’t judge. I can’t believe I am saying this, but it is very normal for Croatia to have kids experimenting with smoking since they are 15. But that’s not important now.  I stopped smoking and I am proud of myself. I tried to kick the habit several times and I actually did it now and I just wanted to share it with you.  So let me know, what was your small win lately? What do you feel proud of achieving?   Can’t wait to read your comments!  Sending love and positive vibes, Luna

T-cell Covid immunity ‘present in adults six months after first infection’ | World news | The Guardian

Cellular (T-cell) immunity against the virus that causes Covid-19 is likely to be present within most adults six months after primary infection, with levels considerably higher in patients with symptoms, a study suggests.

The data offers another piece of the puzzle that could be key to understanding whether previous Sars-CoV-2 infections – the virus behind Covid-19 – can prevent reinfection, and if so, for how long.
