We've made it through another week

Can't say my week has been loaded with excitement. Obviously, I went nowhere and did nothing, but that’s becoming pretty normal for me.  I’ve emailed with friends and I’ve gotten a couple of thousand words done on the next book. My writing room really is my happy place these days. Fixing my coffee and heading out there to sit by the fire each morning brings me peace. And since I’m writing, I can go anywhere I like, with anyone I like and do anything I like. You can’t ask for much more than that.

I did get one great surprise Friday night. Mollie sent me a text with a picture attached. It was of Mollie two of her friends. All three were in masks, of course, and each was holding a card. I zoomed in and saw that each was holding a card that announce they had just gotten their Covid vaccine and had an appointment for the next one, assuming the supply line keep working.

 

Mollie is NOT over sixty-five, and it seems no one really cares about teachers getting vaccinated so I was shocked. But one of her friends is dating a young man who works with the health department on the clinics. They don’t want any vaccine wasted. As the clinic was closing and no more people were waiting there were several doses left. Since they can’t be refrozen he called these girls – knowing that they were less than ten minutes away and Yeah they got it. The timing was pretty good as Mollie has to go back to in-person teaching today.

 

Nick has had his first dose, and now Mollie. I feel a little safer. Hopefully mine will come before long. No telling when LJ and Collin will get theirs. They are in the path of the terrible winter storm heading to the northeast – as are many of my blogging friends. LJ says they are calling for up to fourteen inches of snow and vicious winds. I believe I’ll stay right here in the south. We got about a half inch of snow Saturday night and I just heard it’s going to be cold enough tonight for Mollie to have a two hour delay for tomorrow. That much cold weather I can deal with, but that’s all.

Nick and I are finally watching Outlander on Netflix. We saw the one last night with the spanking scene – well done I must say! We may have to act that one out some time.
