Last night Bill and I were talking about the fact that I have seen many people with Down’s Syndrome come for their vaccines at the clinic. They were included in the recent group with 55+ folks. It made me think of our friend Hayden. This morning I texted his mom to see if he had […]
Today was another happy volunteer day for me! Each time I walk away with some good vibes. I spoke with Brandon, a checker from our grocery story. I asked him if he recognized me from the store but got a blank face. I tried to jog his memory by telling him that he always gives […]
Surprise! Bill popped in to his office this morning before his shift at the Covid clinic. Baby Yoda is doing well and was up for a fun little game of peekaboo. The little leaves are doing a fine job hiding his face. While Bill was gone, I tackled some languishing projects. I sewed a bit, […]
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 […]
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 […]
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 […]
Today was another day of volunteering at the hospital. It was dark and cold when I arrived. All bundled up, I could be mistaken for a bank robber since all you can see of me is my eyes. Ironically, I can hardly see anything with my fogged up glasses so I would make a horrible […]
