Coming Out of the Darkest and Strangest Days of Our Lives
Hooray for the
Vaccines
Since I last posted, my husband and I received both of our Pfizer
vaccines from Kaiser. After the first dose, I caught a slight cold that lasted
for a couple of days, he felt nothing, but we both had sore arms. After the
second dose, he was very tired the next day, I was fine, but we both had sore
arms again. The first visit to Kaiser was quite crowded, at around 75 people in
line. The second was only a line of about 10 people. Everything was
well-organized, kind and easy. We were both so thankful to receive our vaccines.
If we need another booster or two, we’re in. We want to live to our fullest
again, to socialize, to go where we want to go and to do what we want to do,
especially to travel.
Travel Plans
We’ve taken the plunge and booked our 40 year anniversary trip to St. John’s in late August. We’ll be staying at one of our favorite
resorts, Gallows Point.
I’ve also booked my volunteer and fun trip to Spain in
mid-October. I’ll be meeting up with at least three other friends who are Scooby
volunteers. We’ll do some sightseeing and volunteer at the shelter. I’d like to
bring two dogs back for adoption, but with COVID-19 restrictions, it’s looking
doubtful. I’ll keep watching the airlines and restrictions.
Daily Life
Since we
are fully vaccinated and there are looser restrictions, we’ve been out more. California just opened up, so we don’t wear masks, unless asked. We carry masks at all times just in case. We are
still very careful and cautious, as we know IT is still out there, wreaking
havoc and killing so many people. Prayers for India and Brazil, and a host of
other countries who are being decimated by the virus. It has been such a tragic
year plus for the World.
Peace
I wish you all peace and healing as we continue through these trying days. Blessings to all of you!
