Sitting on needles

We are about to leave for Munich airport. I only have to wait for Alexa telling me to shut the window in daughter´s room for a last proper airing. The rules for entry are still vague, we get told that all need to be vaccinated three times or otherwise bring a valid PCR test, while the official site tells otherwise. When coming from a country with low numbers of infection being vaccinated twice is enough. We tried to register again for entry without PCR, but it is not possible when coming from Finland. Our hope is that the borders won´t be under control during night- and that daughter is indeed Covid-free, or we´d all be in quarantine over Christmas. So far no one at her university got ever tested positive, but you never know... The devil never sleeps. Enough lamentation done, the cardigan needs sewing but is finished otherwise. Tomorrow I´ll knit the cap then do two pompoms, from then on it´ll be cooking only. Oh, I forgot that there´ll be a lot of washing to do. Poor washing machine of mine, she´s (her name is Miss Sophie) no more used to doing extra hours!

Chaos

Someone cheered too soon. Just when we were about to leave the house daughter phoned. No flight, no coming back today. There´ll be a flight early tomorrow morning, but this way she won´t be able to get her booster. I am livid. Hubby is even more livid. He is trying to get her a room next to the airport for the night. Airline says it´s the fault of the tourist agency. Agency says it´s the airline´s fault. Fact is she needs a room and has to be at the airport at five in the morning. That will be another problem. They better send a marching band to wake her up. Plan for tomorrow is hubby to Munich, me taking care of grandchild, because his mum is back to hospital with his baby brother for another check-up. Hubby hopefully will keep to the speed limits on the motorway. If daughter is late for vaccination, so be it. Shit happens!
And because this is a shitty day indeed an old aquaintance told us that hubby´s former colleague had died on Sunday. So instead of doing last preparations for Friday we will be off for a funeral. As if Covid wasn´t enough...
