[drray23]

2. woohoo congrats !

I drove my wife to get it last sunday. 260 miles each way in rainstorms. It was worth it. It gave her and me peace of mind. I am younger than her and very fit. I am not too worried about myself but I was for my wife. She is getting the next one march 14.

[Wounded Bear]

4. Glad I don't have to do that...

It's about a 30 minute drive into the VA in Seattle, WA.

[drray23]

6. it was a bit rough in a day.

so we decided that next time on march 14 we will stay overnight. we booked a bed and breakfast. we figure its safe, they satinize the room and its three bedrooms in the b&b. we will just avoid the common areas and stay in the room.

[Wounded Bear]

8. Good idea if you can afford it...nt

[drray23]

12. i still work. we are fortunate we are comfortable.

not rich but comfortable enough. we rarely stay in hotels. on the rare ocasions we do, we pay a bit more for mom and pop bed and breakfast. I would rather support them than an hotel chain. Its also more comfortable.

[Wounded Bear]

14. Makes a lot of sense. Plus, since she has the 1st shot, she should have some immunity...nt

[Wounded Bear]
