Got our shots tonight. Moderna vaccine and already scheduled for the follow up shot. Man, but they had things dialed in. Very slick operation and all went well. Many thanks to the folks around the country working these clinics!

Except... major side effect! When I went in I had a full head of dark brown hair and when I got home and looked in the mirror imagine my surprise when I saw that what was left of my hair was grey!  Ha!

Seriously, no side effects from this shot for me - not even a sore arm!

Good to hear.  My parents got theirs yesterday.  It seems like it really reduces stress to get that done.

I’m young and healthy so I’m not chomping at the bit.

Hey that's great to hear. I signed up for mine. They told me I'm so far down the list the won't even give me an approximate date as to when I would get the first shot.... might not be this year. 

My job isn't considered essential. I beg to differ, but I get what they mean.
My health is too good. Again, I get what they mean.
At 50 years old, I'm not considered any kind of high risk. So, I don't fit into any of the categories they are scheduling right now. 

So basically they told me don't call us, we'll call you. 

I'm not complaining really. I get it.

Dana Farber called my mother and told her they will give her the vaccine. This is where she did her cancer treatments last year. She was pleased because she didn’t want to go to Gillette Stadium where the mass vaccinations are happening.

Based on the Pats season, I thought they only served estrogen at Gillette stadium.

I hope I get to get the vaccine soon.

The metro-Atlanta county school superintendents - mine in Gwinnett included - sent a letter asking that teachers move into the 1-A category.  Of course, I have no doubt that it's more about keeping the schools open, than actually protecting the teachers.  And now, with the CDC's new recommendations about schools will drive the narrative that we should be fully face to face.  Currently, I have two classes that have so many in person students that it is utterly impossible to keep students anywhere near six feet apart.

Cases are actually dropping in my area. So much so that they had a Covid floor changed back to normal patient care last week. That's a significant improvement.

Edit:

Maybe not total positive cases but in house patient numbers have dropped. I'll word it that way

I got my second COVID chip injected today.

Second chip was programmed similar to the first. About 8 hours after injection I started getting the chills and was shivering a lot. A couple hours later I woke up and was just burning up. And then I woke up this morning with a splitting headache. My arm still hurts a little bit, but it is very tolerable. Headache is not quite as bad after some Tylenol.  They would have given me the day off work, but I have stuff I need to get done today so I came in to the office.

      Struggling With Volatility

      By WagonWheel · Posted

      Interested to hear from those who have gone through something similar. I'm currently around a 9 handicap and have logged 50 rounds so far this year. My issue isn't really my handicap itself, it's the amount of score variation. Looking back through the year, I've had scores ranging from 73 to 95, with everything in between. Within the last week alone I went: 92 - 74 - 80 - 89 - 93. I appreciate there is always a variance to scoring and that is fine but I seem to have the issue of being capable of a mid to low 70's round and then the next day adding 20 shots onto that. Others I know around my handicap, they seem to live in the low-mid 80s and occasionally shoot high 70s. In contrast, I seem to have a very high ceiling and a very low floor. My goal is to get to 5 but I feel a million miles away from that at the moment. I have had periods of lessons where I have got better but that baseline level never seems to have improved and the only sort of logical conclusion I can come to is because my fundamental ball striking and clubface control is not good enough. Over the years I've been through the usual cycle of swing thoughts and feels. Something works for a few rounds and then it disappears. This latest episode involved a "looser arms, smoother swing" feel which coincided with some good golf before scores drifted back upwards this week. The more I look at my scoring record, the more I wonder whether the answer is much simpler. Perhaps score volatility is ultimately just a reflection of strike and clubface variability. If strike and face control vary significantly from day to day, then perhaps 74 one week and 93 the next shouldn't be surprising. So my questions are: Has anyone else experienced this sort of variance? Did you eventually become more consistent, and if so, how? Was it primarily technical, mental, course management, practice-related, or something else? Did you manage to raise your floor, or are some golfers simply naturally more volatile than others? Interested to hear from anyone who has gone from being a "74 or 94" golfer to someone who lives in the 70s and low 80s.
