My mother had to go in to the doctor again this week. Nothing dire right now, though. She asked about the vaccine, of course, but they aren't answering very many questions about that. So we are left with the latest claim about people over 75 getting it soon, which means she is one year too young!
Though who knows if that claim meant anything, anyway. I suppose we really were all foolish enough to think that this huge-ass spending bill, for good or ill, was finally a done deal. Hell, the fact that they funded his damn wall honestly made me think he might sign it just for that. Maybe a month ago he would have. Now I am left maybe a little relieved one or two things in there didn't pass, but way, way more anxious about everything we're now not getting. Hell, if someone doesn't give the metro their relief money, then the time when I will finally be working on site full time again may find me with no easy way to get there!
Not the least stressful beginning to the five days off I've managed to make for myself. Still, as long as mom doesn't have to run to the doctor again during them, they'll probably be enjoyable enough, in the end.
