If I hadn’t seen you all posting about getting appointments I would have been waiting for the school clinic to post theirs. The sign ups started Friday and all slots were filled within three hours and it’s not for a couple of weeks. I am really happy I booked Walgreens when I did since they are now backed up. I got my booster yesterday and have some mild fatigue and body aches but not near as bad as the last two. Hopefully it stays this way.
C had his “girlfriends” bday party today. He bought her a heart shape pop it as one of her presents. So cute yet I rolled my eyes at this young relationship.
I just took a walk with the dog and came within ten ft of a coyote so that was… exhilarating. After walking away slowly we booked it home.

MH won free tickets in the box seats to The Eagles so we're going tonight. We saw them a few years back and they were great. That’s awesome! And you were just bitching up thread! It’s like the gods were listening!

Yay for first shots! It’s been crickets around here as far as messaging and outreach, so I called Vandy to see if they were doing shots and got M scheduled for 2 Saturdays from today. They start giving them out to 5-12 year olds Monday. They didn’t have any times that work for us until then. That's so frustrating, but I'm glad you got something on the calendar! Do you have CVS or Walgreens there? A lot of friends have found appointments there, but have then found openings elsewhere through pop up clinics or pediatricians. Our school system had clinics yesterday and today, but I don't think they had too many appointments. If I hadn't found something quickly, I would have looked further away and driven to areas with lower demand. We have Walgreens, but I’m nervous about getting the kids’ shots there. It’s probably not a big deal, but it makes me feel better knowing the person giving the shots have experience with kids. M had to get a shot at urgent care years ago and it did not go well. Needle came out after he clenched and she had to stick him again. After the fact I knew the nurse wasn’t experienced with kids. He doesn’t remember it, but I don’t want something like that to happen again. We’re scheduled at the children’s hospital.

I wanted it at one of our medical places because then it’s in their system of which nurse and everything else about it. So when we see his doctor soon I don’t have to tell them anything.

I was coming here to update. My order showed up! BOTH of them. I was right… they had my OshKosh order, too. So weird though because the delivery man showed up in a regular car. When he was creeping by the cars Mh was outside and asked me if I DoorDashed something? I was like nope. The guy says my name and I’m like yep- must be my package. He looked confused while he was scanning the order for delivery and when he got back to his car he grabbed something else and was like- that’s why it wouldn’t complete because you have 2 orders. I felt like I hit the jackpot. 🤣 It’s sad that I feel that way about a late package. The delivery date on the sticker on the packages said Nov 2nd. 🙄 I’m just glad I finally messaged my complaint and lit a fire under their asses.

That’s a good point. I’ve had all mine done at the hospitals I’ve worked at so it’s in my chart. The scheduler had to make M a chart so he could be scheduled. I’ll probably do the same for M2 when he is eligible.

It’s like the gods were listening! *Whispers* if you bitch about it...tickets will come... The show was great. The stars aligned. If there was ever a time to nearly keel over so I get to drill remotely it was this weekend--instead of getting home at 0100 and having to wake up at 0500, I can sleep in until 0730. I think Joe Walsh still does a healthy regimen of drugs. 🚬💨

Re tickets we used to go to concerts quite often (sad trombone…) but usually at smaller venues tickets will range between 15-25, very doable in my book.
If you go to an mlb stadium the day of the game, tickets can be very affordable. Last time we paid $100 for four tickets, granted not the best seats, but still lots of fun! Now the good seats we had the next day felt like one of those creditcard commercials ‘plane tickets to Boston $$$$$, tickets to the game $$$, souvenir baseball cap $$, hotdogs $… look on my husbands face when he saw the seats… priceless.’.

Morning!
Lazy morning at the hotel. We’re all on different devices just relaxing. Soon we’ll get some breakfast and pack up to head to SIL for a few hours on our way home. It’s been so fun having the kids with their cousins (we’ve only seen them 1 time since Covid). But
TW
SIL found out Friday she has breast cancer. We have very few details except she believes she caught it early. She doesn’t speak to the dr till Monday. Their mom died from breast cancer so obviously this is even more terrifying for her. MH is freaking out as well. I’m hoping it’s early enough that it’s easy treatment but still scared.

chrisy01 I saw cagoldi post on Facebook about them all having Covid. You saw her recently right? Are you all ok? Was it before the quarantine window or do you guys have to quarantine?

We don’t have to quarantine. I tested Emma yesterday because she has a cold/sinus thing but she’s negative. I’ll probably test again in a few days just because I’m paranoid.

And because I’m paranoid I will test myself today jic. Most of the time the kids were outside and not too close. Emma stayed close to Poppy the most so if someone was going to get it it would be her.

Well, the birthday party was.... A success!!!! Everyone was nice and friendly for the most part. SIL pretty much ignored me but whatever. G's family left pretty early and my family stayed longer (except my dad, he gets tired quickly so he left early). The weather was great so we were outside for awhile. Also had a fun basketball tournament since we have one of those 2 people basketball arcade games in the basement. Highly recommend one of those as a Christmas idea, we use it a lot. Both kids and adults.

Morning ladies. Dh and I had an itch to get outside so we took the kids to the zoo even though the weather sucked. I love this about the membership, that we can just go for an hour or two and don’t feel like we wasted our money. I need to go to the store to get some food and electric tea lights for st. Maarten.
Oh and I broke a nail and I hurt so bad it made me dizzy, plus so much blood. It’s my thumb and I now notice how much we actually use that freakin’ thing!
