One year later, "booked in for my 4th shot, got a free lottery ticket with it too!"
Two years later, "booked in for my 8th shot at Walmart and got a free headband! They work so well! I can't believe they're free!

I was awake in bed for about 4 hours last night before finally getting a few hours of sleep. All that sleep during the day messed with my night's sleep.
I didn't think I qualified as immunocompromised but Mayo Clinic sent me a message informing me otherwise. I don't know why they think I'm immunocompromised, but I decided to just take my booster and run instead of questioning it. I'm flying to Belize next week on vacation and I appreciate the extra immunity. Sore arm, pretty tired the next day, but otherwise it was uneventful.starjots wrote: ↑Sat Aug 14, 2021 7:19 pmCDC just authorized third shots for immuno-compromised. My wife fits the bill due to medicine she takes, will visit the local Wal-Mart Monday to get another shot. Hopefully they got the news, I'd feel better if she were more protected.
My son and daughter in law came through town on way to a wedding. We (all vaccinated) went out to eat and talked for a couple of hours about COVID, vaccines (and other stuff of course)... in a restaurant with no mask with 25% capacity. Are we tempting fate? Trying to get a small case of delta before we go to Mexico? Balancing risks? Stupid? Not sure, but the chile relleno was excellent.
