Blog time 1530 sitting in office.

The alarm goes off at 0600.  We have a busy morning.  Nancy has her 2nd coronavirus shot at 0830.

I quickly did my calisthenics.  Shaved and showed.  Had a banana for breakfast. 

We left home at 0730.  It was cold, 7, but sunny.  Made a quick stop at Panera.  We bought coffee and I got a blueberry bagel. Arrived at the vaccination center 45 minutes early.  Waited in the car playing games on our iPads and listening to 40s music on Sirius.

Nancy received a txt msg at 0830 telling her they were ready.  She was gone from the car for 20 minutes.  15 minutes was the mandatory rest time after the shot.  Nancy had no soreness from the shot.

We drove to Woodland Mall and took a 2 mile walk.  After Woodland we stopped at Panera to get Nancy another coffee.  Final stop was Harvest Bread.  Nancy bought a loaf of her favorite bread.  We also split an oatmeal cookie.

Kim was still cleaning when we got home. 

This and that:

Border wall construction stops.  Good!  The wall was a stupid idea.

The impeachment trial dominates the news.  Who cares!

Some talk among conservatives that a third party is needed.  I agree!  The MI GOP tried to censure our new congressman Peter Meijer because he voted to impeach ex President Trump. Same with Congresswoman Cheney in Wyoming.  If we had a new Conservative party I certainly would resign from the GOP and join the new party. 

We hear about all the USA’s problems getting vaccines to folks. The EU is much worse.

Finished the afternoon with a mile walk and a nap.  For dinner tonight Nancy fixed meatballs with mashed potatoes.  Very good.

We watched the news and then headed into the den to watch Apple TV.  Tonight we watched and episode of Ted Lasso.  I also stayed up and watched the last episode of Occupied.  

No good guys on this show.  The show ended with the exPremier of Norway sitting at a computer terminal and turning off the lights in Olso and Moscow.  He vowed to continue turning off the lights if Norway and Moscow did not attack Global Warming.  Bit of a stretch!

It was a mild 16 with light snow when checked the front yard at 2200.  Cold wave starts Saturday.

Debbie and Missy FaceTimed this evening.  We gave an ok report.
