HL: first haircut in a year and a half. I enjoyed the chance to grow it out, but it was getting too much in the summer heat.
Replying late but yeah. haha It's a very small, loud minority. Most of my students and coworkers wanted to get vaccinated. Some of my students started getting vaccinated recently. I got fist bumped by a few when they asked when I'd get my first shot.
I got it today. haha Arm is a little sore and I feel sleepy but hopefully that's it.

Well, my younger Son and his wife divorced a while back (not the HHL) and she has since remarried and just had another little Girl. I have told Momma, that because of the Grandkids, she will ALWAYS be my daughter, if not Daughter-in-Law, then Daughter-in-Outlaw... lol hahaha, in family joke! This was a hard one for both of them, but they are home and doing well now... And, since this child is a half sister to some of my other Grandkids, she just joined the Gang... 
Congratulations to her!

Yess, FFF Good for you... IMO, I think that the soreness is normal, because when you think about it, most shots are just below the skin whereas the Covid shots are different in that they go deeper, into the muscle, if I've read it right. Even when I had my first, it was in the left arm and I didn't notice anything until I went to bed that night abd since I normally lie on my left arm, I felt the tenderness... I got smart the second time and had it in the right arm... Tenderness, yes, but I wasn't lying on it... lol
Thank you, Kaz and likewise, I'll pass it on... Freyja also has an older Half-Brother Aiden from her Dad, So we'll see how it goes... I may be counting 22 Grandkids instead of 21... As I've told them all, I'll not treat any with favor over the others...Many of my Grandkids are Half-Brother/Half-Sister with different parental pairings and, so far, with one exception, we ALL get along well. Former BF/GF's and Ex's... I think it is great...

LL:
Woke up early this morning and went to the bathroom, went back to bed, slowly realizing something was amiss, then it dawned on me (no pun untended) that my CPAP machine wasn't blowing air, there wasn't any noise from my A/C unit, etc... 'Oh, the power is off..'
I keep a small lantern nearby just for such an event, so I turned it on, (first time in 10 yrs that I've used it, yay, long life batteries) walked around, looked outside, everything dark. so I went back to bed to see if I could sleep. Lay there less than a minute and realized that this is what woke me up... Not getting enough air with out the CPAP! So I went out to my padded chair ( no, not a cell, lol) and just sat there and relaxed, just looking out my front window. It was 0415 hrs.
Now I have a mountain in front that has a LONG zig-zag road going up the side until it disappears near the top of my view. So I watched the occasional vehicle driving up or down.. I dozed, off and on, mostly awake... then, about 2 hrs later, I reached for the lantern AND THE DOORBELL STARTED RINGING and little lights started appearing (power lights on different units) the power was coming back on...
I checked the local news, and found that a 9,000 gallon fuel truck had rolled over (thankfully, no fire) and that was likely the reason for the power outage... it not being very far from an electrical power yard... possible fumes and ignition...
HL:
power back on...CPAP blowing air again, went back to bed...
(couplehours later) time to go out in the world and see what's happening locally... staying away from the rollover tanker scene, of course... Freeway still shut down I hear... Think I'll go see if the pancake/waffle shop is open... XHL!
Noon-ish breakfast...

Wow, 22 grandkids. I bet you are having a lot of fun with them, wish I could have that much.

HL: did a lot of cooking over the weekend. Having homegrown stuff really motivates me! I made tomato soup, lots plum jam, and plum crumble (for the third time, it's so delicious omg). It was my first time making jam. It's not set all that well, but I think it's okay. Will try some tomorrow.
LL: turns out cooking takes a long time, so I've ended up a little behind with my work. <_<;

Highlight: I got officially accepted to the PhD programme (after for a while having it informally confirmed but not actually sorted in the online system)! Just in time because the first thing I'm expected to attend is an online orientation tomorrow...

HL: Puppies! Six healthy babies have been born, there might be more on the way, or that could be it. We'll see in the morning. Just glad the birth has gone well.

Highlight: I had my first meeting with my supervisor today - or not really our first meeting, as she was a supervisor for my previous course too - so my PhD is now properly underway!

Hey, that's nice that you're sticking with the same person! Should make the process that bit smoother.
HL: the first volume of the light novel I'm translating finally went on sale today! I'm really excited (and nervous) to see some reviews.

Oh, congratulations to her.  That is young to be driving, but at least there are those safety measures in place.
LL: We lost one of our old dogs at the weekend. Buried her on Sunday. It wasn't exactly unexpected, she was fourteen after all, but it's never easy.
