I didn't get it

 Despite the scheduling system online saying that I qualified for the vaccine, once I got there the pharmacist said no.

Oddly there was no one there, so I wasn't taking anyone elses spot, they were just being a stickler for the rules.

I feel like Charlie Brown and the football; Just missing after having it yanked away

Stores today

 When the pandemic hit stores were cleaned out of many items they normally have in stock. Slowly a few items came back, but in limited numbers. Now when you go to the grocery store they have disinfectant wipes....but it's all some generic off brand I have never heard of. This is true store wide; some items are consistently back in stock but they are all strange brands, and I'm not exactly sure where they are sourced. Clorox and Lysol wipes are still $75 on Ebay (Normally $6). Also stores have been strategically arranging shelves so they look fully stocked., but if you look closer they just spread out certain items to fill in what would be bare spots on the shelves left by items they still don't have. For the most part things are semi-normal. The stores are still stocked and we go about business as usual....it just takes a minute of looking to realize though that all is not quite as it appears.

Found this on Facebook

And it is all true. Just posting it here so in the future I don't forget what was going on: Today is Sunday, April 26, 2020. - We are at 40 days of social isolation. - The dollar is worth $5.32, the euro $5.77 and the pound $6.54. - Gas is $1.49 for regular & $1.79 for premium(only in Louisiana) - Louisiana currently has 26,140 COVID cases, 1,601 deaths. - US Postal Service - while the rest of the world quarantined, we continued to labor with honor, providing the essential service of connecting the world, and providing our constituents essential (and not so essential) packages. - Schools have been closed since mid March and are teaching remotely on-line. This will continue for the rest of the school year. - We have to stay away from each other more than a meter. There are lines / tapes inside the stores to keep people 6 feet apart. - Bars and restaurants only for home delivery & pick-up. - Parks, beaches and walk-in places are not accessible to the public...

Permanence

 So much of what we do feels cobbled together in rules we made for ourselves: 1. Tiny towns seem safe 2. Specific places feel safe (my gym, Target, the grocery store) 3. We wear masks anywhere. 4. We laugh a little bit (height of the pandemic we didn't laugh and just went through the motions) but it's nothing like the silliness we used to have in our daily interactions. Thankfully ALL of our family (minus my nephew) is vaccinated so we can reasonably gather safely together. The south east US? Not so much; Louisiana, Texas, and Florida are doing awful. I just can't wrap my head around the idea this might stick around...5..10 years, and vaccinations will keep going.  I miss my Mom. I wonder not if I CAN go home for the holidays but if I SHOULD go home. Life has changed permanently. I'm trying to accept that
