CoviDoors – Views From My Second Shot #ThursdayDoors

So, yeah, I got my second vaccine shot on Monday. A little headachey yesterday, but otherwise well.

This time, I took pictures of what doors I could see.

It was a drive-up at the hospital, so more of a doorWAY than a door.

Snapped these doors at random across the lot.

Waiting for my shot and to leave the area.

The second shot wasn’t as painless as the first. The first nurse was a genius at shotting.

We waited for 30 minutes, to make sure I wasn’t going to have an anaphylactic reaction. Those are rare, but #4 Daughter, The Amazing Sara Marian, wanted to make sure. So I took pictures of doors across the street.

This one was my favorite. I like the lines and angles, and there’s a door waaaaay up there. See it?

    I’m glad you didn’t have a bad reaction. Is it irreverent to like the thought that one of your last acts would have been to take door photos. If so, sorry. And I mean last act before needing treatment, not anything worse 😏

    I do like your doors.

      Not irreverent at all. That time I went into anaphylactic shock, my last thought as I sank to the floor was a quote from the musical 1776. No, I tell a lie: my last thought was, “I need to remember this. If I survive, I might need it for a story.”

    I am glad you didn’t have anything worse than a headache. Now to lose the mask and get on with life!! I hope that’s next for you and us all.

    The doors are neat. Thanks for taking us along for your shot. 😀

    Our view was windowless at the shot location. Bor. Ing. But happy to have it so hopefully I’ll keep the hubs safer. Best wishes to you on the rest of this mess! (I am still selling masks. you are correct)

      I’ll still be wearing masks when I go out, but I’ll start going into the grocery once my two-weeks-after wait is over. I miss that. I eat more fruit and veg when I can pick it out myself.

    Good angles, indeed! I’m glad your reaction was a smaller one, and am sad to know second shotter disappoints.

      At least it was quick. The first shotter sperled me by being quick AND painless.

        My head felt weird and I felt like I had the chills at night. Got up to go to the bathroom and got back in bed with one slipper on. Realized it the next morning… a little bit if an event. I thought it was funny. My daughter, not so much. The next morning I did wonder how come one foot felt warmer than the other 😃

          Oh, that must have been scary for your daughter, even though it was funny for you. I hope you’re feeling better now.
