My father was vaccinated for COVID-19 yesterday. I won't say I didn't cry. Spread is low enough in Cook County that I'm daring to dart back into the Aldi for brief in-person shops, a lovely change from the tedium (and expense!) of online grocery.

I'm not heading home yet, and we're not sending B. back to school this spring, but it feels, right now, like as the winter breaks, so will the need for lockdown.

I had my first shot yesterday! I'm so glad that your father has been vaccinated and I hope he sails through with no side effects.

Congrats! It's so exciting, hearing that people are that much closer to being safe <3

One of the subjects I write about is elder law, and it's astonishing how fast infections and deaths in nursing homes have plummeted. Admittedly from a tragically and shockingly high level, but still...

Congratulations to your father. It is such a relief to hear of people getting their vaccines.
