Timelies all!
No special powers here from the vaccine. Oh, well.
Mr. S started camp today, and it seems to have gone well.
Now, this would be the perfect time for a swear word.

The risk that even vaccinated we might catch and spread is enough that the three doctors in the family have declined the invitation to a family wedding where we know there will be some unvaxxed people (because the bride has confirmed some of her family are not vaccinated, and we assume others because that part of the country is not well vaxxed). We are still going, but we won't be dancing or mingling much (the music will be fantastic because this nephew majored in Bluegrass [and math; he's a math professor now]). Fortunately, it is all outside. If the weather doesn't permit that, we might be making a different decision.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
This is why we need herd immunity! (The real kind you get from high vaccination rates, not the bullshit kind where we just let everyone get Covid.)
Honestly, I've lost a lot of Give a Shit or compassion for people in the US who don't want to (not can't because of age or any medical reason) get the vaccine.
I wouldn't care about them at all except they are a freaking petri dish begging this virus to evolve. And thus they are still a threat to me and everyone. There is a safe, effective and free vaccination.
I miss the me from Before. She thought we might come together in the face of this.

I feel this so much. Really during the campaign of 2016 I started to change and it became a transformation by 2017, and has only continued to spiral in the same direction. I'm trying to find the old Laura, but I keep running into obstacles that just reinforce the realization that the world has gone mad.

I am a mighty mighty mouse hunter. This morning one caught dead mouse in kitchen and one caught dead mouse in the garage. I’ve set a trap again in the garage and will look to see if I have more that I can sit in the kitchen but I’m feeling much better about the rodent situation.

Well done you Destroyer of Mice!

Does anyone on Hoaders actually follow through on the after treatment? I’d much rather watch a long term approach show.

I'm actually on a cross-country road trip with my family right now (AIFG?). M and I are fully vaxxed but the kids are too young, so it's been nerve-wracking at times and there are a lot of things we haven't done that normally we would do, but so far we've been OK, and seeing friends and family again after so long has been just wonderful. We hadn't seen my parents since 2019, so once all the adults got vaccinated, finding a way to visit them was our top priority.
