techteach Posted October 19, 2022 #2976 Share Posted October 19, 2022 @Host Hattie I get my booster and flu on the 28th, it was really hard to find an opening to get it. There are forest fires burning in our area, and usually the rain clears out the smoke. We’ve been in air alerts for several days. The kids can’t go out and play and even watering the lawn made my DH cough. Rain is on the way on Friday. Red dots are bad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think I would rather we play the Yankees to the Cleveland "Whatevers". It would appear that I got my wish. The Astros play the New York Yankees starting this evening. I wish them luck. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
techteach Posted October 20, 2022 #2978 Share Posted October 20, 2022 @Bigmike911 Astros vs. Yankees. Hmmm. Your Astros may be able to beat them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Host Hattie Posted October 20, 2022 Author #2979 Share Posted October 20, 2022 I had a text about a walk-in clinic for flu vaccine this afternoon, hopefully they'll do another one soon. Red dots don't look good, I hope the air clears soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
techteach Posted October 20, 2022 #2980 Share Posted October 20, 2022 We went between 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place for worst air on the earth yesterday. Today is no better. We went from red dots to purple, and the current rate is 201. Looking forward to the rain tomorrow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lanky Lad Posted October 20, 2022 #2981 Share Posted October 20, 2022 My mum and I are getting out Covid boosters on Saturday. It will be her 5th and my 4th. I still need to arrange my flu jab but I will do that after my next cruise. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ray66 Posted October 20, 2022 #2982 Share Posted October 20, 2022 Had my Covid booster (Moderna) a couple of weeks ago and the flu jab at Boots last week (easier than going to the doctors). Last year they were both given at the same time. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
naturelovergirl Posted October 20, 2022 #2983 Share Posted October 20, 2022 We got our Moderna updated covid boosters last week at Walgreens Pharmacy in Florida (we got our flu shots last month). It was quite easy to schedule and get the booster done. My mom got her updated booster and her flu shot at the same time this year (and had no problems doing so), but my husband and I wanted to stay on our normal vaccination schedule. We always get the flu shot every year in September... and our covid booster last year was in October. It seemed to make sense to get in the habit of a "yearly" covid booster... so October it is! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Camgirl Posted October 21, 2022 #2984 Share Posted October 21, 2022 We had our flu jabs last Saturday at Boots, like Ray66. Our covid boosters are booked for Monday. I managed to catch covid for the second time a few days after our QV cruise in September. Monday is the first day I can have the booster after waiting the 28 days after getting the virus. Luckily, I was ok this time round - just breathless. No other symptoms. And Mr Camgirl managed to avoid it completely. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lanky Lad Posted October 22, 2022 #2985 Share Posted October 22, 2022 I have by booster today and collected the Tux from the cleaners so all set now. 4 more days to work and then Southampton here I come. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tonopah Posted October 23, 2022 #2986 Share Posted October 23, 2022 We checked in for the TA portion of our voyage today so all the paperwork except the health declarations are done. We are packing and will leave for London on Friday. The house is clean and we also pressure washed the patio and cleaned the cushion covers. I’ve been making Thanksgiving staples and freezing them. Yesterday I made pecan pie, today I made stuffing and there will be pumpkin pie soon. The pie shell is cooling from its parbake. Sweet potato casserole is next. The turkey breast is thawing and it will be the last thing made and frozen. MisterTonopah wants to smoke it on the grill. Mister’s birthday is also just before Thanksgiving so there is very little time for any prep that week. Also, who wants to do anything after a long, luxurious trip with others doing all the work? It is 75°F 24°C here in Big Swampy. Just lovely. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
techteach Posted October 23, 2022 #2987 Share Posted October 23, 2022 @Tonopah Glad you’re getting everything ready for Thanksgiving, it will make your life simpler later. Have a great time and keep us informed if you can. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

techteach Posted October 25, 2022 #2995 Share Posted October 25, 2022 Ok @Bigmike911 and @frankp01 and @Tonopah let’s have fun with this! I have no idea what that looks like on-line but, let’s enjoy our national game together. Who else is watching with us? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Essiesmom Posted October 25, 2022 #2996 Share Posted October 25, 2022 I am. My niece is a life long Phillies fan. I am a Braves fan, but will root for the Phils. I am not optimistic, but I think the Braves were the underdog last year, and look what happened. EM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tonopah Posted October 25, 2022 #2997 Share Posted October 25, 2022 After Friday I will have limited internet access. I’ll be cheering for the Phillies. They were fun to watch in the playoffs. Sadly, my superpower seems to be to doom any team I cheer for. Think they’ll show the games on the QM2? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
