@sproutsandparsnips, we've had a lot of rain in the last month, which has made things a bit dreary, but has done wonders for the lawn and front garden, as well as helping bring out the tree foliage. If you look closely at the picture of my front garden you'll see that my cactus has done its annual resurrection quite nicely. I'll plant some annuals soon, maybe this weekend if I can get out to the nursery.
Deathray, do you have Uber of Lyft in your area? They let you see reviews of drivers and post your own if you want to.
Dude, I'm also an older mum, having had my two at ages 39 and 41. And some of the people at your vaccine clinic might have been there for reasons other than age eligibility, like having comorbidity. Unless you've gone to a strictly age-based system.
DH is going in for hip replacement surgery on Monday. It should be pretty straightforward, but he'll be working from home for 6 weeks or so. As luck would have it, DS will be home to help him with anything he needs. He's usually pretty stoic about things like this, so I don't anticipate the dressing gown of doom making an appearance, but we'll see.
