Got my Moderna Today

I made an appointment a few days ago at CVS to get my Moderna booster. I expected to see people waiting in line but to my surprise, There wasn’t a single one. The nurse was adept with giving injections. I Actually didn’t feel the needle go into my arm. I’ve done everything I can now to avoid the covid or passing it on to anyone else. While we were out we stopped at the Dollar Tree. I needed birthday cards and looked for picture albums but found none. My son stopped to buy our meal at the window and we came back to the apartment to eat. I had plenty in the refrigerator but he wanted to stop and order. I had baked a cake so we had cake and butter pecan ice cream for dessert. Afterwards I thought about taking a walk but the cold wind was whistling so I changed my mind. I did walk to the mailbox and took in an arm load of mostly junk mail.Now I’m thawing out and mylotting. Hope you had a good day.

We go to Walmart here on the 18th for our booster shots of Moderna... I like Dollar Tree. We buy candles and, sometimes, hardcover books there, if they sound interesting. We have to go shopping later.

@RubyHawk Yeah, the driver usually gets to pick where the car goes...

I’m so glad your vaccine is there. I’m sure Walmart has it but my son wanted to go toCVS and he’s the driver.

I need to get my booster shot, and also schedule Little Miss to get her first shot. Haven't been to the Dollar Tree in a long time. Was thinking about going in to get a leg up on stocking stuffers, but decided not to just yet.

@RubyHawk maybe I will venture out tomorrow. I do need a couple of craft items that I cannot find at Walmart and they may have them there.

It sounds like you had a really nice visit with your son. You raised him right. We won't be due for a while for our booster shots, they are just starting to roll them out here for the olderly population and those with severe health issues.

It's good that you've had your booster. I don't look forward to shots, but I plan to have mine once it is time to do so. My husband has already had his, but he also was eligible to get vaccinated before I was. You are fortunate to have such a good relationship with your son.

@RubyHawk One dose made my arm sore and made me dizzy. The second wasn't quite as bad. Don't know what the booster will do.

I was wondering why the lines at my local grocery store's pharmacy were so long, and then I realized people are now getting their booster shots! I plan to get mine as well, but they say to wait six months after you get the initial shots, so I won't go until the end of January for mine.

@RubyHawk I thought I read somewhere recently that another bad wave of the virus was starting to hit Europe again. I'm wondering if we're every going to be through with this.

@moffittjc I keep hoping more of the populations will get the vaccination and the pandemic will be over but it’s happening yet.

I'm sorry it was too cold to walk. I'm glad there wasn't anyone in line when you got your booster. Cake and butter pecan ice cream sounds like a great dessert.

I've only been in a Dollar Tree once but couldn't find a thing I would want to buy, that was years ago. Oh that junk mail, why do they even bother, it just wastes a tree, really sad to me.

I know, junk mail is the pits. It uses up our trees and fills up land fills.I buy all my birthdays and Xmas cards at Dollar Tree and other things. I love it.
