yesterday, I called and made an appointment at Silver Heights IDA Pharmacy and walked over for my flu shot…

signed a paper, sat down and waited a few minutes, and it was done… didn’t even need a bandaid;-)…

continued on my walk and collected a few Poke balls in the process…

this morning I got a text from a friend advising that the Pharmacy had the Covid vaccine as of this morning…

I called right away and was there inside of fifteen minutes and got the shot… apparently, the needle hit a blood vessel so there was some bleeding…

this time I got a bandage, lol…

currently my arm is a teeny bit sore, and I am tired but I am so pleased to have both vaccines taken care of;-)…

so far I haven’t had a single strawberry, although at least two were nearly perfect when they vanished…

tonight we ran out to the store and picked up a folding circular hamper…

I cut away the top and popped the whole thing over the strawberry plant, pot and roller… fit perfectly;-)…

maybe I will get some strawberries now…

I’ve really been enjoying having both wicker chairs on the deck… hoping I may be able to put the mandevilla beside the one closest to the north steps, but we will have to see if there is enough room…

last week I ordered a chair cover that protects against rain… only ordered the one to be sure it would fit properly…

it arrived and did fit nicely, although it is hard to tell where the front of it is, lol…

so, the second was ordered and arrived yesterday…

it is going to be great to not have to bring the footstools and cushions into the kitchen every night…

spent time out and about recently, shopping…

my grandson arrived with breakfast from McDonald’s… and his laundry…

after eating, and getting a load into the washer, we headed out to Rona looking for a repair kit for the hose that goes to the pond…

after a bit of fun there… and a few plants… we moved on to Costco… found more plants…

and some pants, all of which had pockets;-)…

throughout the day the laundry got done and a few projects as well… unfortunately, not the hose as it was smaller than normal hoses…

popped all the plants in the garage for the night for their protection… will bring them out into the sunshine on nice days until time to plant…

using the soil we picked up, I filled the pots in the shade garden so they are ready for veggie seeds…

wonder when that might be…

big day today…

put in my contacts, found my purple sandals and put on real clothes, even a bra;-)… can’t remember the last time I got dressed to go out… searched for my thickest mask and then waited…

ready even before the three hours email reminder came, lol…

my grandson picked me up and we headed downtown to the RBC Convention Centre… this is also the first time since August that I’ve been in a vehicle with another person, yikes…

not thrilled about being around hundreds of people, as I’ve stayed alone in my house for months to protect myself…

we walked in at 5:24 pm and left there at 6:22… had to stay after the shot for thirty minutes as I have some drug allergies…

the process and space were well organized and all of the staff were kind and friendly… those of us in the special chairs were watched over the entire thirty minutes to be sure we were fine;-)…

we stopped and picked up fish, shrimp and chips on our way home… sadly, my fish wasn’t in the bag but there were two orders of shrimp, which again, unfortunately, were over cooked…

thankful to get this first dose and so happy to have the support of my grandson;-)…
