I'm grateful my husband at least got vaccinated at work so that's one plus. Now if I can manage it. I did finally get a new job I'm really excited about. So it's not all bad.<br /><br />I need to watch Anna and the Apocalypse.

It feels like forever since any were--not that we've looked hard since we have cloth ones. Still, we were excited and bought a box just the same. That's life in the pandemic, I guess. :-) I hope your second dose of the vaccine goes well and you have little to no side effects. I get my second one next week. <br /><br />Anna and the Apocalypse sounds like fun!

My parents got their first shots a couple of weeks ago. I know it will be a long time before it is widely available like the flu vaccine, but I am crossing my fingers that this initial surge of vaccinations will help bring down the numbers so people and businesses can start to recover.

We thought for sure we'd be closed down again within a few weeks. But there have been surprisingly few cases of covid transmission within the schools. Most of the kids I know who have had to quarantine have been exposed to the virus by family, not at school. And I only know of two teachers in the county where I live who contracted covid through a school exposure. Hopefully, that'll be the case where you live, too.
