Right before I left for California to see my daughter and her family, the US lifted the requirement for wearing masks on airplanes. I wore one anyway, as did most people.
As a matter of fact, I wore a mask at all indoor events, shopping, museum visits, theater and a K.T. Tunstall concert. The only place I didn’t wear one was at home with family.
The vacation was a lot of fun. Last Monday when I landed in Mexico City on my way home, I received a message from my daughter that my son-in-law had tested positive for Covid. Shit. He had driven me to the airport and hugged me goodbye.
This week I have tested negative twice after wearing a mask at home as a precaution. I’m getting back into routine and recovering from the change in time zones. You wouldn’t think two hours could make such a difference. Getting old sucks.
A big shout out to blog follower RudeinNewYork who sent me a box of Covid antigen rapid home tests. They are not available in Bacalar and frankly it never occurred to me to bring some back.
My doctor advised that if I tested positive to start antivirals. I found an agency that would deliver the medication to our door in four hours for a mere $950 us. We decided to pass. It seems I dodged a bullet. Please be careful out there.

I know! I admit I’ve been nervous. My SIL is doing fine. With my asthma and age I haven’t wanted to find out how my body would react. I’d like to think I’m pretty strong, but that’s probably a fantasy 😂. Have a good week.

I’ve been exposed three times since I was vaccinated. The last time, I was in a car with the a friend for about 45 minutes when I dropped him off for an appointment, and then 45 minutes back home. The vaccine seems to be working well for me, thank goodness.
Keep staying safe!
