Next - getting our kids vaccinated after April 15. They’re both in their 20s, and we live in SoCal.

It was great seeing my Mother, Sister and BIL spending Easter together with no masks. The are all fully vaccinated. It’s the first time in a year Mother had guests in her house and had been hugged.

Wish I could have been there but I’m not quite there yet.

My dil and her sister are on a waiting list, some have had 1 shot and some are fully protected. There will be a family party soon.

We’ve made it this far. I can’t imagine cheating a week on the date and getting it, even though I’m not at risk of hospitalization.

We celebrated by having a patio lunch where we last ate out on March 10, 2020. We had the whole patio to ourselves (early lunch), and the waitress was very adept at waiting for us to mask up before she approached our table. It was great. Next week is one of the grands birthdays, and we’ll be seeing them since DIL and SIL are both vaccinated.

Congrats on your freedom day!

to eat AT a restaurant again, which we've been doing since Mid March. The food tastes so much better when it's coming right from the kitchen versus doing take out. I love feeling that life is getting back to normal.
