Mon.-Sat., February 15-20, 2021
Great news to start our latest pandemic week . . .
Laurie, in the lower right corner, got her
first shot of the Coronavirus vaccine!
She got the Moderna version in Oxnard on Monday and now has to wait four weeks before getting her second dose. It only took her five minutes from the time we got to the vaccination site until she had her shot.
Two days before her I got my first dose of the Pfizer vaccine and only have to wait three weeks for my next shot.
As the experts say, don't worry about which company's vaccine is available to you, just get it done!
This problem is still centermost
in my lifestyle
Next Wednesday will be the one year anniversary of the start of our collective national anti-Covid-19 lockdown in Italy.
I read an article that this past year of being mostly locked down with a spouse or a partner has stressed that relationship the way five normal years would.
Well, at least we are both still alive.
No school for the little ones this week was the Pleasant Valley School district enjoyed what they call their Ski Week Vacation.
We enjoyed having Mary with us
as both Vanessa and Mike's school
districts. do not have Ski Week Vacations
Some time at a local park is
always fun!
Mary is a bit on the rough and
tumble side of things
Sunday night we both fell in love
with CNN's new Italian food show
The first episode took us to the area in and about that wonderful city of organized chaos, Naples.
We'll be in Rome for episode two this Sunday.
Hey, Stanley Tucci wrote a cookbook
I went to our local bookshop, The Bookworm, to see if they had a copy.
They said that it had been published in 2012 and was now out of print. The lady who runs the shop got on-line and found a hard back copy on sale for only $450 USD.
I passed, hoping that the success of Tucci's new show will spur a reprint of his cookbook.
In paperback.
Jacob has the Gravity Falls Journal #3
on the left and does not like sharing
it with his sister Mary
No problem.
On Friday, the three of us spent our day fashioning Mary's own personal journal on the right with the anatomically correct five fingered hand. It is chock full of stories, anecdotes and drawings.
It was fun creating this with her.
Mary at her first ever
Girl Scout Daisy meeting
As a Daisy, Mary is now pledged
to be a Peace-Builder
Hopefully this will put and end to all future sibling-rivalry issues.
Hopefully.
The new Barcelona Gladiators of the
equally new European League of Football
held their first of two Combines on Saturday
From all accounts, it was a huge success.
The Inaugural Class of the Spanish
American Football Hall of Fame
was announced over the weekend
Ismael Sánchez, aka "El Catalan" or "Ice," who played as a devastating Free Safety for us in France for the 2013, 12-0, DII National Champion Bron-Villeurbanne Falcons deservedly made this list.
He was a great leader and a feared hitter who often changed the course of games for us that year.
With Ismael after the 2013 French
DIII Semi-Final Game, a 44-12 victory
over the previously undefeated
Montrabé Comètes
"El Catalan" blocking a PAT
in that same game
"Ice" must have been his nom de guerre during his great career with the Badalona Dracs in Barcelona.
Laurie's new kitchen table
arrived on Saturday
It was custom made by the Amish for her over the last three months and she was excited at what was her belated Christmas present.
