Hey, It's Okay

I got this idea from Glamour magazine. You can link up any day of the week. All you have to do is make a list of what you're okay about. Simple! Please do not link up a post that has nothing to do with Hey, It's Okay. It's rude and I'll delete the link.

HEY, IT'S OKAY....

.....to have had a relaxing Mother's Day. I wrote about that here. I ate lots of amazing food. 

......to have showed Natalie the movie Amadeus. I loved it as a kid and still as an adult. She liked it too. 

.......to can't believe school will be over on June 3rd. This has been a bit of a strange year. I hope Natalie's first year of high school is close to normal. 

.....to also can't believe Tommy finished his Spring semester at college. He was virtual for the Fall and Spring so I hope when he starts again in Fall 2021 that he can be on campus. The only time he's been on campus was to do a tour right before Covid shut everything down. 

.....to love when I can try out small businesses. I decided to order from Cookie Cab, which is a service that delivers warm cookies to your door. (You can pick up too!) The cookies were delicious and yup, they came warm.

How Mother's Day Went

I did not get to sleep in on Mother's Day because my cat burst into the room and meowed hysterically. She still had food in her bowl, but it wasn't FRESH food, so she was offended.

However, I did get some gorgeous flowers from my husband, who is deployed. 

I also picked up the backpack from Loungefly because I love to read, so it was perfect for me. 

The flowers have been blooming:

Oh, and Natalie made me this:

Tommy made me a video. 

We went to Jason's Deli for lunch because I was worried restaurants would be packed. I ordered the Better BLT and it was delicious:

Dinner was cookies from a small business in town called Cookie Cab. Someone delivers you WARM cookies. They were scrumptious. 

So yes, I had an enjoyable day and I hope everyone else did as well.

Getting The COVID Pfizer Shot With My Son At HEB

Okay, so when Covid vaccines first became available I knew I was going to wait. I kept hearing about the crowds and I was not in the mood to wait around. Plus they were available at places I didn't want to drive to. So I decided to wait until they were available nearby. 

H-E-B made an announcement that they would be offering the Covid vaccine as a walk in Monday-Friday from 3-5. 

They made it simple: it's just at the pharmacy and there will be signs telling you where to go. 

My son Tommy is 19, so he was able to get the vaccine as well. We both filled out some paperwork and then waited for our names to be called.

We only waited about 10 minutes. Tommy was a little nervous about the needle but realized it didn't hurt much at all. 

The worst part about the first shot for us was the sore arm. But it's been a few days and they are no longer sore. I hear the second shot is the one that can knock you out a bit. Our second appointment is later in the month. 

If you still need to get a Covid vaccine, check places around you. Many are offering walk in options.
