I finally tracked down DG and offered him the second Covid shot.
He wasn’t having anything to do with it.
“Well”, I said, “what if I drew the needle a bit smaller?”
“Still not convinced? How about this one?”
“I can only go down so far, you know. My pen is too thick to get a good drawing of it”.
We finally came to an agreement.
“Don’t get cocky, DG”, I said. “I can still draw you with a sore arm”.
It has been a few weeks since DG got his first Covid shot, so he is due for his second one.
I drew another needle and went looking for him.
Hmmm. He seems to have run off.
If you see him, let him know that I was looking for him.
Just go back to bed.
DG has a sore arm from his Covid shot.
“Don’t worry about it”, I said, “It’s better than having a sore head”.
Bwaaa haaaa haaaaaa!
Okay! Okay! It’ll go away in a couple of days. Sheesh. What a grump.
DG was getting really down about not having access to a Covid-19 vaccination.
“DG”, I said, “Relax. You are a cartoon. You can’t even get Covid unless I draw you that way.”
“Don’t worry about it, DG. I would never do that to you.”
But he persisted.
He had me on a technicality.
So, here ya go.
I hope that satisfies him.
Sometimes I wonder if being a cartoonist is worth the aggravation.
It was refreshing news that we are finally approved to get the Covid-19 vaccine shots. Yay.
Unfortunately, there are few appointments available for the shots, and the wait times are long.
DG, being younger and faster than we are, (sigh), decided that he was going to sit down at the computer and help us out.
“Don’t worry about it, DG”, I said, “we will get it done”. But he was adamant. He sat right down and got to work.
A few hours later, he was getting a bit dozy.
And a few hours after that he was in a speck of trouble.
Well, maybe we can get somewhere now that he has done a face plant on the refresh key.
Hang in there. Shots are coming.
DG is still waiting patiently for that Covid-19 shot.
At least he isn’t getting into mischief.
Stay tuned. I’m sure that something will show up momentarily.
I found DG waiting patiently for his Covid-19 vaccination.
“Get used to it”, I said, “You are not in a high risk group, so it’s going to be a while.”
We took a couple of weeks off from this blog to rest up after the holidays. The woodpeckers also hunkered down in the Chickadee house. Every now and then, they stick their little heads out to look around and see if the situation has improved.
And then they go back in.
Good choice.
Today we are saying “Goodbye” to that horrific year, 2020. DG and I have put together our own retrospective for the year.
Here’s hoping for a better 2021,
Happy New Year, everyone.
Stay the course and stay safe.
