Today I Got the Third Dose...

Of the Pfizer Vaccine.

The drugstore where Frank got his Covid booster last week was crowded at the time and he had to wait half an hour even though he had an appointment. I decided to get my appointment at a small pharmacy which is smaller and not crowded. It worked out well with no waiting beforehand. After administering the injection, the pharmacist handed me a timer set for 15 minutes and I sat in a chair and waited until the buzzer sounded. I felt fine, although hours later I got a headache, but that's okay. It's temporary.

Frank wanted a cheeseburger so we got him a "Happy Meal" nearby and drove to the Visitor Center on the next block, which has a parking lot overlooking a small park. I took a few pictures while he ate his lunch.

There were some flowers outside and a large painted butterfly. Inside there are travel brochures, gifts, and souvenirs. The hostess said they are selling tickets for the Grilled Cheese and Tomato Soup festival scheduled for November 6. This event has been very popular in the past.

  1. Tomorrow should tell if there are any additional effects. It'll be awhile for the booster for me.

  4. Hello,
    It is a good idea to get the booster shot. I love the pretty flowers and the butterfly. Take care, enjoy your weekend!

  5. ...I'm not sure that a booster makes sense when much of the world doesn't have vaccines available.

    1. We have a surplus in this part of the USA thanks to folks who don’t believe in science.

  6. I had my 3rd Moderna shot a few months ago, no reactions. But a friend who had hers got quite sick from it, and said she believed her first shots had still been active so she had such a reaction. I haven't heard much about Moderna on the news around here. I would love the tomato soup and cheese festival! It just sounds so comforting!
