"hit me with your best shot"

Today was gray and rainy and full of work. But yesterday was a lovely hike with LB and RS heading west along the Red Cedar. It was my first real hike with L since her bout of Covid, and I loved it so much.

And now we're at midterm break.

I scheduled my Covid booster shots and flu shot, but am a bit sad knowing I'm about to lose at least two days of midterm break to my usual severe post-vaccination response. That sucks so bad, but it's the responsible thing to do. Perhaps I'll reward myself with a massage next week. 

And also, Big A encouraged me to get it now because he's home until Monday and "can take care of me." 🥰 (And then he ruined it by saying usually all he has to do is periodically poke me to make sure I'm still alive. 🙃)

Aw, Big A! Too funny!
You reminded me I need to get my flu shot! I don't usually have reactions to flu shot, not like Covid shots. So I have no excuse, I just have to get it done!

I need my shots, too, both flu and covid booster. Beth and North got theirs while I was out of town last month and I haven't gotten around to it.

It's terrible to lose the day, but you'll feel so good once it's behind you. I did both on the same day, and it went okay.

Get the massage.

Glad I could serve as a reminder about your shots, Nicole and Steph!

Lollipop, I saw your post and it gave me some additional courage.

Gillian--YES!!! (Thank you.)
