The mystery puzzle is finally finished. It was a challenge, but quite enjoyable. I don't think it would taken so long to finish, but I could sit at the puzzle table for only short periods before my back pain demanded that I recline on the couch.
I finally was able to get my first Covid vaccine shot on Thursday. The whole process from drive up to drive away took less than 20 minutes, and I never got out of my car. It would have been shorter, but they were holding people for observation for 15 minutes after the vaccination to make sure you didn't have any adverse reactions. I didn't. I did have a lot of pain and fatigue that afternoon and evening. Didn't sleep much. But that probably had nothing to do with the vaccination. It's certainly not the first time that has happened.
I'll get a call or an email later telling me when I'm to come back for the second shot in about three weeks.
I haven't done any sewing this week. I just haven't felt up to it. In fact, I haven't even been up the stairs (where my sewing room is located) all week. Climbing stairs is no fun these days.
I'm making shepherd's pie for our Super Bowl supper this evening. I don't think I'll be watching the game. I know nothing about either one of the teams. I probably wouldn't know Tom Brady if I met him on the sidewalk. I've never been an NFL fan. In fact, the only football I've ever followed is college football, and I've pretty much narrowed that down in the last few years to just Alabama and whoever plays for the championship games.
I have always enjoyed the Super Bowl commercials (about the only time I can say I like commercials), especially the Budweiser ads. But I've heard Budweiser want be taking part this year. So I'll probably just continue streaming season 3 of "The Sinner" on Netflix.
If you haven't had a chance to watch "The Dig" (Netflix), I can highly recommend it. I think it and "The Queen's Gambit" (also Netflix) are the best movies I've seen in quite a while.
I'm off to the kitchen to prepare the ingredients for our shepherd's pie. It takes a while these days.

I enjoyed both of those movies, as well. "The Dig" was so understated for such a remarkable, history-changing discovery.

What a lovely and charming puzzle and well done in finishing it. Sorry your back has limited the time you could work on it.
I loved The Dig and will certainly watch The Queen's Gambit soon. We recently watched our DVDs of the old Walter Matthau and the 1991 movie "The Commitments".
Hugs!

Oops! The Walter Matthau movie is Hopscotch.
