Today was an amazing day at the clinic for several reasons. First, the state opened up the vaccine to the next age group meaning that those 60 and older are now eligible. Our head pharmacist, Kelly, knew the announcement was coming and prepared us that things might get really busy. The flow of patients came […]
Today would have been my grandparents’ eightieth wedding anniversary. Even though they have both passed away, their anniversary remains so meaningful. My grandparents had a long marriage which is not always the case any more. This photo was taken at their Las Vegas retirement home in 2015 before they both really slowed down. I’m grateful […]
Several weeks ago we got the news we had all been hoping to hear: Leslie and Jason were finally getting married! The wedding took place today at St. Thomas More Church in Tallahassee and was celebrated by Father Tim. We were all invited to participate via live stream. This was my first virtual Covid wedding. […]
I was back at the hospital again today because there was an open shift that needed to be filled. I had plans to bring cheer and smiles. I stopped at Starbucks for a birthday drink for Kelly, the head of the Covid vaccine clinic and I showed up with a wee gift in hand. Kelly […]
After all the snow and ice, I was finally back at the hospital and I was glad! I was thankful to get a parking place in the hospital parking structure since it was still pretty slushy outside. Once indoors, I again had a great time checking people out and making their follow up appointments. I […]
The storm has passed through and now it’s time to continue digging our way out. The weather will be warmer so hopefully the roads will be clear enough for kids to resume school tomorrow. The birds continue to spread the word that the dinner bell has rung at our house. I never recall bird watching […]
Today was yet another day of virtual learning. The kids have now been out of their regular school routines for a full week. I should be grateful, and I am, that this is temporary and things will go back to the new “normal” when the winter weather passes. The snow left a beautiful blanket outside. […]
With the threat of more severe weather descending upon our area at the time of dismissal, the school corporations preventively closed the schools today and we continued with virtual learning. Thank goodness we have solid internet service since the boys were online and I was too. I made a big Costco run just before noon […]
Fully vaccinated, Bill wasted no time to get on a plane to see his mom for a long overdue visit. His initial itinerary took him from Evansville’s airport through Dallas to Ontario but weather related flight changes rerouted him. Instead, he flew Nashville to Dallas to Ontario but he still arrived early enough in the […]
Yesterday our school plans shifted due to the ice storm. Mason was already scheduled to be virtual because Memorial was using all the classroom space to proctor the iStep exam to all the juniors and Signature called the day off for unsafe road conditions. Thank goodness schools and students alike can now suddenly switch to […]
