Some woman traveller who was fully vaccinated came to Queensland from down south and brought the Covid with her. It is now beginning to spread in Queensland thanks to her. Hope they can stop it asap.
Our county just went to the highest level of uncontrollable covid spread. Here we go again. The spreaders are 18 - 50 year olds.

I just got my second shot a few weeks back; sure hope it helps.

Around here the 65+ group are like 90% vaccinated.

But, including kids 12 and under, we are only 40% vaccinated.

The delta spread in almost entirely in that unvaccinated group.

After my hospital saty last week, I've decided I will get the COVID vaccine.
I've a follow up doctor's visit next week, so that's when I'll start the process...

After all the poking I had last week, the COVID shot should be gravy...

TOP, I'm sure you will weather this just fine but prayers for your family and FIL anyway.

After 65 years I can say that half of life is making adjustments and the other half is showing up. So if we keep showing up and adjusting we will probably do just fine. Look at the cockroach.

Thanks for the pep talk.
My mom lived with my late wife and me for 3 1/2 years. We adjusted and made it work. I love my FIL and most of my in laws. We get along great, but we have family coming for my birthday (Aug 2) for a large cookout party on the first. Sleeping arrangements are what concern me. We are thinking of bring the motor home down for extra space, we no longer have a hide a bed because Ellen didn’t like it. That pretty much would have cured the problem. My son has one of those Patriot camper trailers from Australia, it’s very self contained and sets up very quickly. I might see if wants to bring that.

Toppop, you're a good man Charlie Brown.

dinner with friends was very good, we had the steaks which were just yummy and tender but honestly a little fatty for me.
145 degrees for theirs, 158 for mine.
Next time I'll pick a leaner cut than ribeye. Plus beets and potatoes from their garden from plants I gave to them that wouldn't all fit
in my garden. Truly what goes around comes around.
His wife is an avid gardener so of course we have lots to talk about and I got the complete tour. After which I was happy to get back in a/c, still pretty muggy out but
temps are now dropping.

Roy, everything has risk, I think highly likely you will reduce your risk by getting vaccinated.
The new stuff, the variant, is supposed to be much more contagious if you are not vaccinated and potentially be more harmful to you.
But if you are vaccinated, you should have very high chance of adequate protection against this year's bunch of bad actors.

Don, that is not good news at all. Good reason to live in a 55+ community?

Well loved flag Buckeye, has been sending a good message for a long time.
maybe soon to be retired with honor.
