Got my booster today at Rite Aid!

[CaliforniaPeggy]

And I was a walk-in! My husband had an appointment so I went with him.

It went very smoothly!

1. Congrats, Peggy!

I got my 3rd Pfizer a few weeks ago, then flu & tdap 2 wks after.

[CaliforniaPeggy]

5. Thanks so much, my dear SheltieLover! ♥

Wow, are you ever protected!! Why yes, yes you are!

[Diamond_Dog]

2. Awesome! Good for you both!

I got my booster at CVS last week. I had an appointment and was in and out in about 15 minutes.

[CaliforniaPeggy]

6. Thanks very much, my dear Diamond_Dog!

We are Happy!

Yup, that was about how long it took us today.

[marble falls]

3. Good deal!

[CaliforniaPeggy]

7. Aw, thank you so much, my dear marble falls! We want to live! ♥

4. Gotta love your Rite-Aid! Got my flu shot there on Monday. Went there today to see about

Moderna booster which they are now giving. Was advised to get booster two weeks after flu shot. Meanwhile, my local hospital which is part of a healthcare system, has no updated info on boosters.

[CaliforniaPeggy]

8. We did the flu shot thing several months ago, as we always do.

Today was the first day for the Moderna vaccine.

We belong to a hospital group too, and haven't heard anything about these boosters. I'm a little surprised, actually.

But anyway, we are about to be protected! It's a couple of weeks, I think.

9. My wife got her third Moderna (with appointment)

I was a walk-in. I went with mix-and-match. Last March, it was hard to find any vaccine in Oregon, so I went with what they would give me, and had to drive 250 miles to get that.

So today I got Moderna on top of my Johnson.

11. haha your last sentence

[CaliforniaPeggy]

12. Congrats on your newest booster, my dear MurrayDelph!

I too smiled at your last sentence.

[LisaL]

14. Mixing and matching should work really well.

Even better than non-mixing.
Congrats!

[MustLoveBeagles]

23. Congratulations on getting your booster

Your last sentence gave me a chuckle.

10. Rite Aid yesterday, too.

Glad to get it done.

[CaliforniaPeggy]

13. We are with you! So glad to have it over and done with.

17. ...

[Tumbulu]

15. Me today too- at Costco

I figured with the atmospheric river coming in, it might be fine to be in bed. I was really hurting from the second dose of Pfizer.

Costco was only giving Moderna today, said I could come back Monday. But I decided to live on the wild side and do a mix and match.

So glad that you are protected! I’m feeling relieved!

[CaliforniaPeggy]

25. Mix and match works very well, or so I'm told!

I'm glad you're protected too, my dear Tumbulu.

[redstatebluegirl]

16. Good for you!

[CaliforniaPeggy]

26. Thanks so much, my dear redstatebluegirl!

[mvd]

18. Great to hear, Peggy!

Hope the side effects were very minimal. I just had a flu shot and didn’t feel anything from it.

[CaliforniaPeggy]

27. Thanks so much, my dear mvd!

Hadn't felt any side effects yet, and it's been about 7 hours.

Flu shots have never bothered me.

[Maru Kitteh]

19. That's wonderful! It warms my heart to hear of people protecting themselves

[CaliforniaPeggy]

28. Thanks so much, my dear Maru Kitteh!

I like to see my friends taking good care of themselves too.

[FakeNoose]

20. Great news!

I think I'll try that too. The Rite Aids, Walgreens and Giant Eagle pharmacies aren't so busy right now.

[CaliforniaPeggy]

29. Thank you, my dear FakeNoose!

You can bet the pharmacies will all be very busy very soon!

Hey, too!

[MissB]

21. We did the same

(Except we both had appointments)

Feels good!

[CaliforniaPeggy]

30. Very smart move on both your parts, my dear MissB!

My husband beat me to the punch with his appointment and then there weren't any left for today.

But they had room and so I got in too.



It sure does feel good!

[steve2470]

22. I get my Moderna booster in November, congrats Peggy ! nt

[CaliforniaPeggy]

31. November will be here before you know it, my dear Steve! Thanks a bunch. n/t

[tavernier]

24. Me too, Kroger.

I was the only one at the pharmacy. So I guess we can be sore arm sisters tonight, Ha ha ha. Hope we’re all fine and dandy in the morning.

[CaliforniaPeggy]

32. Yeah, our pharmacy wasn't busy, so we lucked out!

And so far, I haven't had any soreness. It's been 7 hours since I got the vaccine. I wonder if I'll feel anything.

Hope you feel really well tomorrow, my dear tavernier!

[tavernier]

33. Rough night for me.

Arm started hurting about midnight and then I spiked a fever enough to crawl under two heavy blankets. Interrupted sleep and some stomach issues. But it started subsiding just a little while ago. Now only my arm is sore and itchy. Hope you fared better.

Maybe I’ll try for a few more winks…

[CaliforniaPeggy]

35. I had a rough night too. No stomach issues, but chills and general malaise. Awful.

I'm staying home today. Thank goodness there's stuff in the fridge for dinner.

Hope you feel better very soon, my dear tavernier.

[tavernier]

37. Much better now.

Only souvenir is sore arm. I think we made it.

[Tumbulu]

39. Yay!

So glad to hear that. I am beginning to feel a bit better, arm still swollen and sore, but I think I can handle that.

More that chills and stomach distress. And everything hurting.

[bif]

34. Excellent. I'm going tomorrow

To Rite Aid for a Moderna booster. Hopefully no side effects.

[CaliforniaPeggy]

36. I hope no side effects for you too, my dear bif.

I'm not feeling very well today.

I hope this will soon be over!

[Tumbulu]

38. Oh I am sorry, me too! I had a rough night

it almost feels worse than the second shot. First time I have had the injection sight swell up. But I’m still grateful.

Hoping that you feel all better soon dear CaliforniaPeggy!

[CaliforniaPeggy]

40. I am feeling much better, thanks! A couple of short naps, some food and drink.

I am not entirely well, but a large corner has been turned.

Whew!

[Tumbulu]

41. Yay!

I am hoping the same for me.

[CaliforniaPeggy]

42. You WILL get there!
