The Daily for Sunday Sep 13, 2020

[ger_77]

A note regarding yesterday's discussion about getting flu shots, I spoke with our pharmacist and they won't be available in Canada until late October or early November.  I'm not sure why the delay . . .

 

Smooth Sailing!  🙂🙂🙂

Thanks for the info.

We're wearing masks, social distancing and staying home whenever possible, so I hope we won't catch anything before the shots are available.

I loved my Opa and Oma - these are my grandparents on my mom's side on the Dam Square in front of the Royal Palace in Amsterdam a couple of years ago 😉 Enjoy your Sunday! 

 

 

 

I nominate this as the photo of the day!!  How about a toast to your grandparents at happy hour today, as well as everyone else's grandparents.  Cheers!

Good morning.    This is moon rise about 7:15 pm from the Zuiderdam on this day last year in the St. Lawrence on the way to Saguenay.  To the eye moon was even bigger than pic could show.     Captain had announced it was a special sight not to be missed.  A big crowd took cocktails outside.   

Prayers and cheers.

A beautiful but bittersweet photo.  I am just supposed to have left the Saguenay from the Crystal Serenity and spending a few days in the Montreal area before boarding the Zuiderdam on September 17.

Hope you get to do the same next year Roy.

That isn't likely.  I already have another cruise booked for that period.

Thank you for the Daily, Rich and to Roy for the prayers and congrats!

Only my paternal grandmother was still living when I arrived, and she died when I was five. But I have her cuckoo clock hanging in our family room and every time the bird sings I remember MeMar!

Edi

P.S. I have grandcats, who are delightful!

[Vict0riann]

Good morning all,  thanks to Rich and Roy, and all the information on this thread!

 

It's still very smoky here.  My eyes and throat hurt, hope it is just the smoke.  I go around sniffing things, just to make sure I still have my sense of smell!  DD is staying in her room with her air conditioner on, and has upped her asthma meds.  This is supposed to go on for a while - no rain in sight.  It's very quiet, no birds or bugs around.  My sedum and asters are usually full of bees, I haven't seen one for days.  I suppose they are all sedated by the smoke.

I hope the air clears up for you quickly. 🤞

It is sad, Jacqui!  The bees should be having a great time, stocking up for the winter, and they are usually teeming around my huge aster plant, which is starting to open.  And the little male Annas hummingbird who comes to the feeder is wearing a black hood - no sun to make him iridescent!  None of the lady hummingbirds are going to fall in love with him!

Thank you.  We are usually pretty late getting them, but I thought it was just on this island.  And we can't go across the border to get them in the States!

That is sad indeed, Ann.

I think your Fall stays warmer than ours?  So hopefully the bees can still stock up when the smoke clears.  I pray for rain to help those wildfires.

Yikes on the hummingbird.  We’ve had so many and today I haven’t seen any.  Very strange.  I hope that doesn’t mean we are getting the smoke from South/East of us.

 

2020 has not been a good year for sure 😞

I've been late getting my flu shot because the CDC says it lasts about 6 months and the flu season goes into March.  It's just about time now so I hope I don't run into a shortage.

My doctor's office said to come in mid October for my flu shot.   They don't have the vaccine yet, but said they would have it soon.

Yes, I think that might be one of the reasons they don't don't start pushing the flu shot here until a little later.  But reminders to get it have begun on TV.

Greetings Dalyites.

 

Rich.  Thanks for the Fleet report.  It is indeed nice to see the Signature Sisters in the Southern Carribean Sea.  It is a sign of hope.

 

I hopr all you posters have a great Sunday.

Same here; October is a good month to get one; it'll last you through March

Egg based medicine do not like me.  The one time I got a flu  shot I got the flu!

Good morning Rich. You outdid yourself this morning. Thank you.

A favorite fortune said "You wanted wisdom in a cookie? Go read your bible". Going for something light tonight for dinner, not sure what yet. Probably polish off the last crab leg and maybe a garden salad. 

 

Good morning sisters Denise and Ann. As you know I am not a red wine fan so no on today's selection. Thank you Roy for prayers, shout outs and normally sunrise pic's. Jacqui I can only hope I have a few plants next year like yours. So beautiful.

 

Father I hope you are up at at 'em and doing fine this morning.

 

I did not realize Claudio was here yesterday until he texted me and asked how the sago palms looked. He lifted them 6 inches and added rock. I'll take a picture and share it when the sun rises.

 

Take care, love one another. Sending blessings to all.

I concelebrated Mass this morning. Arm hurs.  The device is on the left side an I am left handed.
