Today, the sun shone down on me. With a tip, I was able to receive my first Covid vaccine shot.
Evidently, near the end of the day, there are sometimes shots left. Rather than throw them away, they are available to walk-ins. A brave friend and I took the risk and won...Wahoo.
Beneath my room's rubble of fabric paradise , emerged this; Funky Jelly Roll top.
Made from loose and sparkly fabric from..... heaven knows where.
Below, sewing lessons resume...six months, checking out the measuring tape.
COVID attacks Charlotte, North Carolina
We are told to stay home. The children still have remote learning. The library has reduced its hours. The senior center is closed...again...
At certain times, I drive my books to the front of the library. I call the library. A masked lady comes out with a box. We exchange books. We, old and tired folks, are told to reconsider the grocery store.
So!! Amazon Prime delivery, here we come. This is Amazon fresh with rotisserie chicken, carrots, leeks, etc. The children were so excited to look through the bags and put away the food.
Tonight we were able to have chili.
In her walker, Aoife smiles. Sometimes, Rosie the dog, brings her own toys to play along side of the baby.
My life now consists of an 11 year old girl insisting that my sewing room is hers and the family's and so is my computer. She said, I should not be selfish.
It consists of Tik Tok episodes...as in:
"How to Piss of Your Boss", and, "What Teenagers Know that Parents Do Not!" (and for sure, Grandmothers will certainly not know.)
I am busy being entertained with O'Quilt family preteens, dancing and lip syncing to to their own generational music. And recording it....For awhile, I got away with the fact that Granddaddy loved classical music...They loved Granddaddy, but listening to his music did not last..
Add to all that is: sixth grade science and social studies. and, getting texts from Dylan's teacher that somehow, he missed his entire math class. With one hand on the computer games and one on his school Chrome book, Dylan smiles the sweetest smile as he tells me that he does not know what she is talking about.
Yet, today, the magic happened. I was able to get my first Covid vaccine shot.
I am oh, so grateful..xxoooxoo
