Not so much physically exhausted — though I’m also sleeping more this week than I typically do. It’s just been a long, long pandemic year and a half, and a lot of how I dealt with it was by working basically all the time, pretty much every minute I was awake. Giving myself lots of […]

Kavi was a little nervous this time too (you can see it in her eyes), but the pharmacy techs are so quick and smooth (they’ve done so many of these now!), she didn’t really have time to get stressed out. She said she barely felt the pinch this time, woot. Two weeks, and she’ll be
I did not actually visit the Art Institute while I was downtown, though I was tempted. Too much to do right now; this is just a shot from train platform. But maybe sometime this summer…

She was not up for a vaccine selfie, alas. Pretty anxious about getting a shot, but she powered through. And then we had potato chips and ice cream — benefit of doing our shot at Walgreens.
Kavi Has Gotten Her First Vaccine Shot, Woohoo! Read More »
CDC has now approved 12-15 year olds for Pfizer vaccine. Kavi is signed up for her first shot on Sunday morning. (Anand is 11).
Sewed up some masks tonight too — I wasn’t sure if people would keep buying masks from me, when they’re readily available elsewhere, but some people do like the prints I’ve found, I guess. Also, the head & neck elastic option, which I think is less common. This order is nicely colorful. It does worry
