I am doing NaBloPoMo this month. 30 blog posts in 30 days. Come join me. #nablopomo2022
Thursday after work I went to pick up my mom and then went to Walgreens to get the flu shot. I took a Tylenol before going to bed and woke up feeling fine on Friday morning. However, later in the day I felt awful. I was hot, had a fever, and felt really tired. My coworker gave me a Tylenol and felt better about 2 hours later. I don’t remember feeling that bad last year.
This was me resting in a chair when my students were in art/STEAM class.
Then on my way home, I was less than 10 minutes away, someone rear ended me. I was fine and nothing major happened to the car. I guess it was bound to happen sooner or later. I’ve had my car for 2 years and that was my first (and hopefully last) car accident.
Earlier I stopped at Target and saw this cute Starbucks mug. I was tempted to get it but didn’t because I have many mugs at home. Now I regret not getting it. I mean, it is my birthday month so I should get it right? Next time I go to Target I will buy it.

Are you going to participate in San’s Mug Swap? If you do, maybe you should send THAT mug if it’s speaking to you like this!
·
Good idea!
·
OMG, I LOVE THIS MUG. The color, the size, the form. I would have bought it in an instant and I am not an impulse shopper.
I am sorry to hear you had a reaction to your flu shot. I got mine earlier this week, too and I didn’t have anything…. but I know some people do. I am glad the Tylenol took care of it! And I am sorry about the accident, but I am super-glad everybody is ok!
·
I did go back to buy it. On Friday I will get the covid booster and the shingles vaccines. At least I will be home in case I have any reaction to them.
·
Sorry you got sick from the vaccine but much better than getting the flu or giving the flu to someone else.
That is a cool mug. Get it!
·
I did get the mug!
·
That is one good thing!!
·
Ha ha, I love that mug!!! I’m fighting off the urge to run out to Target and look for it- I have way too many mugs as it is.
UGH! Car accidents are the worst. I’m glad you and the car are okay. And I hope you’re enjoying your weekend- you need a nice break.
·
I also have too many mugs. I went back to get it. I love the color!
·
Sorry you felt under the weather after the flu shot. Luckily I always feel fine after a vaccine. Even the covid shots didn’t make me sick and I am glad to hear nothing bad happened in the accident. I would have been tempted by that mug, too. I don’t go to starbucks usually but I do like their mugs. That one in particular is so pretty!
·
On Friday I am going for another covid vaccine and a shingles vaccine too. Hoping I feel fine after I get them.
·
Lucky there was no major damage to your car when it was rear-ended. That is a really nice mug. Gorgeous colour.
·
I agree. There is a teeny tiny dent but not worth getting it fixed.
·
Yikes – what a day.
Love the mug and agree with NGS – you should join in with San’s mug swap!
·
I did sign up and will gift it to a lucky person!
·
That Mug is cute – however I’d prefer a different color bit I like it. I was thinking the same that you could send it to in the secret Santa mug swap San is running.
·
Different colors would be nice. I am thinking of violet or purple would be pretty.
·
Ugh, sorry you had a reaction to the flu vaccine. I got my Covid booster + flu shot at the same time and felt very grateful that I didn’t have a reaction, just a sore arm.
That mug is cute! I hope you went back and bought it. 🙂
·
I got both last year on the same day and do not remember having any reaction. Maybe if I would have gotten both this year then maybe I would have been fine. 😀
·
That is a very cute mug, you should definitely treat yourself. It will look lovely in your new house! Sorry about your reaction to the flu shot. I got mine on Sunday and worried that I might feel crummy on Monday, but I got off easy this time, not even a sore arm.
Next week I’m getting my second shingles vaccine. I’m a little more worried about that one!
·
Second shingles vaccine? How many are there? I am getting mine on Friday.
