Jan. 29th, 2021 01:27 pmIt was an exciting if a bit of an apprehensive day today because I got my first COVID vaccination.
It's been a possibility for the last week through James' work and me being his carer, but I have to admit, I was tying myself up a bit thinking if I should accept the invite. But then, in an amazing bit of timing![[personal profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png)
dine linked to an article which pretty much said, if you get the chance to have it done early, do so. Plus, James kept telling me they wouldn't have offered if it was an issue, so yeah. Got the Oxford jab this morning.
After that I had just enough time to get a coffee from Costa -- and man, their new hazelnut lattes with added protein powder are fabulous -- before my lymph appointment at the hospice. That was good news too, one pint of fluid gone from one leg and 10mls from the other, which is a bit of a sad number but better than nothing I guess. I'm also getting longer leg wraps as he said I need the tall version so hopefully, the next lot will stay up better.
Now James has gone to take the car for its MOT and I'm waiting for the boiler repair people and congratulating adult us for taking boiler cover out a few months ago as it means no stressing now when the heating is acting up.
( cut for more talk about the vaccine )
And ha, the boiler person is here now already. This having someone fixing stuff without worrying about the potential cost is a good feeling.
