Yay, it´s here!

Hubby has ordered a special cake for Oscar´s and DiL no 1´s birthday party- a huge syringe (DiL is a doctor) based on Sacher torte mixture and a smaller Sacher torte in form of an eight (Oscar loves Sacher torte). But now we will have to postpone the family party. Apparently it´s precisely DiL who has caught the virus. Except for Xaver, who is too young, they are all fully vaccinated. Good thing is that they haven´t been with us this week. But it demonstrates that all the vaccinations and masks and whatelse we have to endure will not help against this new mutation. Our clever politicians have already ordered a high number of doses of the new vaccine, which will only be available from April on, if at all. We did not get told the exact number, but we will know it by the number of boosters we will have to undergo, boosters which will be at least three months late, because by then Omikron will be replaced by another mutation. And then we´ll have to start anew...
Pillow slips and blankets are finished and ready for use. I had my midday nap on the couch with them. Warm, cosy, and nice to look at! Today I am torn between assisting husband mine in his daily fight against crime in front of the TV downstairs, and watching the Tampa Bay Buccaneers trying to get to the next round of the playoffs in the studio. Crime might win. The football game starts at nine PM and might last too long according to my opinion!
