A friend gave us plastic sleeves for our vax cards, and H found us clips for our collar, pocket, shirt hem, whathaveyou, with retractable leashes for the plastic sleeve. Less intrusive than lanyards.

I got a plastic sleeve for mine and stowed it in a zippered pocket of my purse. I also took a picture of it and saved it to my Favorites folder on my phone, because it seemed like a good idea to have a picture in case a pterodactyl steals my purse with my actual vax card in it. (What? It could happen.) (I guess if my phone is in my purse when the pterodactyl steals it, then I'm screwed.) (I may not have thought this pterodactyl plan through very well.)

We made it to Otter Lake and unloaded the vehicle. Animals are happy again. Tired.

I need to do something with my vax card which sits in my wallet now but needs a sleeve at least.

Back it up to the cloud, Steph!

I have not yet laminated my vaccination card, but then I am frequently the only person in sight wearing a mask to go into shops and restaurants here in Arkansas. It's 50/50 whether I'll eventually be refused entry for not having one, or for HAVING one.

My vax card has just been riding around in my wallet, but thanks to the conversation here, I did finally remember to sign up for the state of CA digital one.

I've still got some details to work out on my pterodactyl plan.

Back it up to the cloud, Steph!

You know, I think my iPhone backs up my photos to the cloud, so I guess the pterodactyl can take my iPhone, too.

I have the QR code for the digital cards on my phone and the physical card in my purse. I have no pterodactyl insurance, other than being in the state's database

I…need to make sure I can still find my physical card? I took photos several times and have one saved as a “note” in my phone but am open to other suggestions as well. I was carrying the real one around and decided I should stop doing that and now I’m….not actually sure where it is?

We do have a state vaccination system but I think most places don’t know about it/recognize a screenshot of that yet.

meara, my records with the state aren't complete - I received my MMR booster and Hep A & B series in '15, and they aren't on there. (My COVID and shingles series, Tdap booster and flu shots are all recorded.) Had to call my doctor's office and ask if they could correct it.

I carry mine in my wallet and have a copy of it on the cloud. In the cloud? In the cloud.

Just had colonoscopy and endoscopy. Thumbs up (not literally). Still slightly loopy. Whee!

I'm getting chicken saltada on the way home.

Saw one of the nurses who cared for me during the Year of the Hospital, so that was nice.

Yay for loopiness and chicken saltada. Not so much for medical procedures. When I had my colonoscopy it was at a surgical center owned by one of my client doctors. When they were putting me under he started singing "Tell Laura I Love Her", which meant I went out in the middle of a burst of laughter. Not sure what the anethesia tech thought, but I was amused.
