Most fully vaccinated, some partly vaccinated, wearing masks, and 2 children. My DIL is a doctor and so we follow her advice as to wearing masks or not. It was pleasant to visit and play with the little ones and now I have the afternoon to relax and read! <br />Glad you and your son are being careful!

This morning was so warm already that we had coffee on the balcony formthe first time this year, and tonight the first BBQ of this year. It was 29C and lovely - but we know it won‘t last, rain and a drop in temperature by about 10 degrees is forecast for tomorrow.Librarianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05704656564078750607noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-280582018791422638.post-44320929692618462752021-05-09T12:29:12.478-07:002021-05-09T12:29:12.478-07:00We have been a bit more fortunate with sunshine ea...We have been a bit more fortunate with sunshine earlier but then the rain returned. It has been less chilly today but my woollies are definitely near to hand.<br />I wear my alarm button as a pendant.

He comes over frequently and we chat - he on the lawn and me in the doorway. He rings me nightly.

My sons will be here today. All of us fully vaccinated. They'll join us for road trip next month to see my 88 yr. old mother in Arkansas; I last saw her 2 yrs. ago on Mother's Day. I thought the point of getting vaccinated was to safely be around people again? Return to more ordinary lives? Even share a hug with loved ones? Hope it warms up for you soon, Pat, and that you can soon visit with friends and family in person.EM Griffithhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05897942424655139102noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-280582018791422638.post-79943543474233097842021-05-09T10:43:14.260-07:002021-05-09T10:43:14.260-07:00Yep!

And you are correct to have your son stay outside! If he is "out in the world" he can be carrying the virus. No sense to take chances.
