Vaccinated and Ready to Hug


Looks like this dreadful virus is getting tackled by the right stuff. More and more people are getting vaccinated. And the Covid case numbers are going down in alot of places. So that’s a good sign. Hopefully, by the end of this year, we should have a handle on it, variants and all. My hubby got his first and second doses of the Pfizer vaccine, with a few side effects, a while back. Mostly he was just very fatigued. I got my first dose of the Moderna vaccine, more recently. Had a horrible headache and jab site was terribly sore. If that means the medicine is working, I can’t complain. I’m scheduled for the 2nd dose on March 22nd. Two weeks after that, we are entertaining the notion, to eat out in a restaurant, for the first time in over a year. And, my hubby wants to get his hair cut too. (Though I like the ponytail.) Of course, that will be AFTER we HUG our daughter and grandchildren. I’m bursting with excitement at the very thought. I’ve missed them so much. We will still be wearing masks out and about, everywhere else. And we will not be traveling out of state anytime soon. Still too many restrictions in place. On top of which, my hubby doesn’t trust hotels, at this point. Their ventilation systems and handling of bedspreads, blankets, sheets and pillows are troublesome. We could bring our own, but it’s too cumbersome. Our mobility is limited and lugging all that stuff, in and out, is too problematic. So sadly, this means no visits to my elderly mother, halfway across the country, until late into the fall. Our fingers are crossed we’ll get to see her by Thanksgiving. Something to look forward to for sure. Even though, we are very unhappy it couldn't be sooner. So how are you all doing? Have you gotten your OUCHIE from FAUCI? What are your plans 
when the coast is clear?
