Friday, October 8, 2021: It's Friday

I woke up this morning early for work.  Since my doctor's appointment this week, I have been going to sleep at 10 p.m. and sleeping through the night which is wonderful.   I got up early this morning which is unusual for me.   I guess I was excited because it's Friday.

Tonight, I won't be going to Barnes & Noble as Kay and Karen can't make it.     I will have to come up with something new to fill my Friday night.

September 30, 2021: Blake Shelton Concert







My friend Sue Arnouts and I went to the Blake Shelton concert at the Van Andel Arena in Grand Rapids.  Parking cost us $20 for the night.   This is the second Blake Shelton concert we have attended. The first concert was fantastic and was about 4 hours long.    Tonight's concert was also 4 hours long.  It started around 7:15 and got over about 11:15.  Martina McBride performed tonight, as well as two older guys that I had never heard of before.    I sent my cousin Kelsey a text that I was at the concert and she said she was at the concert, too, so that made me happy.

September 29, 2021: The New Fruitport High School








My Mom and I have been going on period tours of the building of the new Fruitport High School that were paid for by our taxes. We went to two other tours while they were building the school so you could see how they were coming along.   The school is finally completed and students have been attending the new school.     I was quite impressed with all of the safety measures in the school.  They made special walls in each classroom for hiding behind if there was an active shooter.  They also painted the walls in the classrooms a certain color that is supposed to promote learning and paying attention.     The builders really thought through everything in this project.

February 4, 2021: Covid Vaccine

Today, I finally got my 1st dose of the Covid vaccine.  I had my name on several lists and was so excited to get a call for my shot.   After my shot, I had to be monitored for 15 minutes for any reactions.  I had a sore arm for 2 days.
