My Daughter, The Guru
She was peeved that I thought I had COVID and didn't call her. I love that she cares. She's kept her young family safe throughout Pandemica. Her workplace is vaccinated and offers free, walk-in testing in addition to the required random testing. She's on top of the reading and the research - she's my Guru.
Following up on our conversation this morning - the one where I tried to reassure her that I wanted to know something before I worried her and that I was not keeping information from her but was taking action instead of fretting (which, for me, is Progress with a capital P) - I tried to order rapid tests.
It was over-whelming.
So I sent her a text. She sent me a link. I placed an order; 10 tests will be delivered on Tuesday. I can't pick them up at the CVS down by the University; they can only be shipped. I am now prepared, and my daughter's anxiety is somewhat slaked. I think we're all doomed to be a little more anxious than we used to be; I was glad to help.
Mostly though, I was happy. I made my daughter smile...... almost as wide a smile as she gave me.

It's always a good day when we can make our daughters smile.
Truer words were never spoken!

A twitter friend told me she had picked up tests at Walgreens but you have to ask for them at the counter as they are not on display. I think I will do that. I have never had a COVID test, never felt remotely needed, but who knows with the way the variants keep coming at us. I may just feel the need somewhere down the road.
