    Can I ask Marsha, Hedda, Scott, did any of you feel any side effects from the vaccine, I've heard the 2nd dose can sometimes have an effect.

    So far, i’ve just had the one. My arm is sore,  but just like with any other shot. 

    If something new develops, i’ll be sure to let you know.  Hmmm, i hope one of the side effects is playing the mandolin with great skill and aplomb .

    Will let you know tomorrow. I've heard that as well so made a point of not having anything scheduled just in case. My daughter said it didn't exactly kick her ass but she had body aches and felt really tired. My cousin who is a couple years younger than I only had the sore arm just like with the first shot. Some articles I've read said that older folks might not have as strong a response to the second shot which is why I mention the age.

    So very happy you were able to get your shot. I've been worried about you knowing how vulnerable you are and how much you could be affected by the actions of others. In another few weeks, you'll be fully vaccinated which will put the icing on the cake.

    I have my second shot appointment at 4:30 tomorrow afternoon and cannot wait. With that shot and the 2 weeks they say before it fully kicks in, I will now be able to travel to MA to see my grandkids without having to get a COVID test both before I go and then when I get back to my home and feel fairly confident that I won't be putting them in harm's way either. I'll still be wearing my mask and practicing safe distancing but the sense of anxiety that comes with people getting too close when I am out and about will be greatly reduced. I might even feel safe to go into a grocery store again although, truth be told, I'm really liking the online order and curbside pick up so might keep doing that.
    I’ve been shopping this whole time. But, i’ve been very safe about it and when others chose to show their selfish  faces, i steered clear. 

    So glad you have second tomorrow . You’re in the home stretch.  We still have to be safe and vigilant for ourselves and for others, but definitely making huge strides in the right direction.

    Was talking to the guy who came over to measure for our proposed sunroom yesterday. His wife is in health care (in her 40s) - he said the second shot laid her out flat. Fingers crossed that you come through without a hitch; this must be one of those times when it's good to be a senior citizen! ♥

    ....I felt very wiped out, some body aches and on the edge of a fever....just dosed with Ibuprofen & Tylenol in rotation about every 4 hours....after about 24 hours I was back to what passes for normal with me....

    Thanks for the feedback folks, my dad is due his second dose and I wanted to give him a heads up of what side effects he might encounter.

    Dropped the car in for a service, probably cost an arm and a leg as usual, have an extra shirt with me in case they want the one off my back.

    Knocking on wood as I guess it's still possible to have side effects show up, but it's been 15 hours since my shot and so far, so good. The sore arm at injection site as expected and very slight headache that might not even require any meds are my only side effects.

    Super, hope that lack of anything more severe holds.

    Me, too! I do not want to be feeling under the weather when I fly to Boston tomorrow to visit the grandkids and their parents for the Easter holiday. My 4 year-old granddaughter is "jacked" (my daughter's description) that I'm coming. She'd told my SIL's parents that they weren't invited for Easter because I was going to be there and we'd be too busy. :D Fortunately, they said something to him and he assured them that was all on her and, of course, they're invited. So much for her Machiavellian attempt.

    None of those. I'm Nana. I let my daughter decide as it didn't matter to me. My kids had called my mom Nana, so that's what she chose.

    Just a heads up that I won't be around much for the next 3 weeks. I'm heading to MA today for the Easter visit with the grandkids and the day after I return another cousin from Maine will be coming to visit in AZ for 2 weeks. She was supposed to come last year but the lockdown prevented that from happening. I haven't set up my phone to log in as, quite frankly, I'm too lazy to figure it out and I do not enjoy using my mobile for that kind of activity. That's my one area of resistance to technology that is not likely to change. So I'll be thinking of you and will be back on Board ASAP. Stay safe, stay healthy and be good, or if you can't be good, be careful. ;)
