Covid update - vaccine booked

 We have opened up a bit and the cases started going up again.  They have locked down visits to the home but are allowing people to go to restaurants.  

We have booked in our appointments for our first doses of the vaccine on Mother's Day.  We were good for whatever was on tap.  It sounds like we are scheduled for the pfizer version.  It means we'll have to go back for a second dose.

We usually get together for the Academy Awards with the group that we used to go see movies with back in the before times.  This year we did the Oscars at our own houses and used Zoom to get together.  As usual, I did not win our Oscar pool.

While most people have been pretty good about following the guidelines and restrictions, there have been some people who feel that their freedom is being too harshly restricted.  There was a large protest of 'anti-maskers' at the Forks.  

Personally, I feel that any slight inconvenience I have to put up with by wearing a mask more than makes up for the chance to prevent spreading covid to someone else.  But I find wearing a mask like wearing tie - if you get one that fits, and wear it properly, it's not uncomfortable.

Figure Painting Total - March 2021

 When I had ordered the Dracula’s America Hired Gun pack, it came with the Stitch Doctor, and 2 Carpathian Guards instead of a Stitch Doctor, a Carpathian Guard, and a Native Arcanist.  I mentioned it to the company and instead of just sending me the missing figure, they sent me another entire pack. 

The Mera and Elseworlds Superman I had bought last year had been missing pieces and Knight Models had sent me replacements.  They took so long to get here that when I asked about their status, they sent me another pair.  The second Superman is fine but the Mera was broken at the wrists – which may be too fine to fix.

With Harley finally being painted from my Suicide Squad starter, I can now technically play the Batman Miniatures Game as I have completed both sides of that starter.
