Take a plane?
or
Take a train?
Thanks,

I agree with Hops about the train BettyAnne, and I don't know if cost would make this impossible but I think First Class, if it's an option, is something you deserve to give yourself right now. Some nice books or magazines to read, music to listen to? If you're that way inclined. But I'd look at ways of making it the nicest experience you possibly can. Give yourself that mothering that was so lacking when you were little. ((((((((BettyAnne)))))))))

Thanks Two a Penny,
The virus is really bad here in San Francisco......so I might take the train when it is better.
I am so upset with Bill dying and now accounts that I was on as a buyer are being closed.
OMG it makes me feel like a nothing......
I know that's not true.......but it sure feels that way.
Thanks so so much,
Bettyanne

It's such a lot for you to be coping with, BettyAnne, so many difficult things going on. You're doing great. It does look very bad over there. It feels pretty bad over here at the moment. Where we are isn't as bad as many other places but the numbers don't seem to be going down too much which worries me when we've just had another month of lockdown. I'll be first in the queue for a vaccine; I'd rather take my chances with that than the virus and hopefully they can collect more data as they go along which will help them know how safe it is for certain groups (I think here at the moment they're saying no to kids and pregnant women; a friend of mine with MS has been told it's probably not a good idea for him and he lives a very solitary life anyway so he's happy to carry on shielding as he pretty much does that in his normal life). There's so much going on and it's all so up in the air, it's very difficult. I'll be happy when it's all over xx

It does feel that way, P, although some people's chances are better than others. We're just avoiding it full stop. I don't like getting a cold, let alone anything else, I certainly don't want to be catching this as well xx

Well it's not looking too good here despite the fact we've just had another four week lockdown. Overall numbers have dropped a bit but deaths are still going up and locally the death rate doubled over the last week. It does worry me, even though we're taking as many precautions as we can. They administered the first vaccines today; I think son is in one of the priority groups that they've put forward so far (I say think as the information is changing so fast that I can't keep up but the last thing I read said he'd be in one of the priority groups). Although most people I've spoken to this week are saying they won't take a vaccine for it so I have been feeling anxious that even vaccinated we'll still have to be very careful as it won't be 100% effective so there would still be a chance of catching it off someone else. I'd kind of hoped that by this time we'd be looking back on this as that awful event that happened in 2020 but it still feels as though we're very much in the middle of it all. Crossing fingers that by this time next year we'll be looking back on it.
